Tractor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1645 words)
The farm tractor is used for pulling agricultural machinery or trailers, for ploughing, harrowing and similar tasks.
The classic farm tractor is a simple open vehicle with two very large driving wheels on an axle below and slightly behind a single seat (the seat and steering wheel consequently are in the center) and the engine in front of the driver with two steerable wheels below the engine compartment.
Farm implements can be attached to the rear of the tractor by either a drawbar or by a three-point hitch.
