This tractor features manual steering and a rear hitch of category II, with an electric starter system running at 12 volts. It is designed to facilitate a range of agricultural tasks, evidenced by its tire and wheel configurations which indicate that it was likely used in a variety of field conditions. The operational weights vary slightly depending on the engine fuel type, indicating slight differences in the construction to accommodate the different engines.
