In an effort to provide equipment for all customers, CNH has debuted a first of its kind: an accessible tractor for people with disabilities.
This version of the TL5 Series Tractor is produced in Brazil and is designed for people with lower limb disabilities so they can work the fields independently.
A lifting platform allows the operator to get in and out of the cab without help, and controls have been adapted to help with operation. Leaders at New Holland say with the launch of this tractor, they hope to empower people and allow those with disabilities to return to their occupations and independence.
