We manufacture tractors ranging from 25 HP to 300 HP, suitable for agricultural farming, construction, landscaping, and more. Prices vary significantly across horsepower ranges — choose the right model based on your actual operational needs.
When selecting a tractor, consider the following key factors:
Field Size: Small farms can work with 50–75 HP; large-scale operations need 100 HP and above
Terrain: Flat land requires standard configuration; hilly terrain needs 4WD and reinforced suspension
Implements: Rotary tillers, plows, seeders, and other attachments have different power requirements
Budget: Balance the purchase price against long-term fuel, maintenance, and parts costs
PTO (Power Take Off) is one of the most important components on a tractor. It transfers engine power to attached implements and equipment, such as:
Rotary tillers
Mowers
Sprayers
Generators
Water pumps
PTOs come in two main types: independent PTO and non-independent PTO. An independent PTO can be engaged and controlled separately while the tractor is in motion, offering greater flexibility. Standard PTO speeds are typically 540 RPM or 1,000 RPM — always ensure your tractor's PTO speed matches your implements.
Pre-drive inspection: Walk around the tractor — check tire pressure, fluid levels, and lights
Start the engine: Confirm the gear is in neutral, engage the parking brake, then start
Moving off: Press the clutch, select a low gear, slowly release the clutch while gently pressing the accelerator
Shifting gears: Shift according to engine RPM; avoid lugging (high gear, low speed) or over-revving
Stopping: Decelerate, press the clutch, shift to neutral, engage the parking brake, then shut off the engine
Driving on hilly or mountainous terrain requires extra caution:
Going uphill: Stay in a low gear; do not shift mid-slope. Watch for the front end lifting due to weight transfer
Going downhill: Use a low gear for engine braking — never coast in neutral
Driving across a slope: Follow the contour lines as much as possible; lower your center of gravity and use counterweights if necessary
Turning on slopes: Slow down; avoid sharp turns that could cause a rollover
Always wear your seatbelt, and use the Rollover Protection Structure (ROPS) if equipped
The most common method. Drive the tractor onto a flatbed trailer and secure it with chains or straps at four points. Suitable for long-distance transport.
The standard method for international export. We partially disassemble the tractor, load it into a shipping container, and reassemble it at the destination.
For short-distance transfers, you can drive the tractor directly. Make sure to comply with local traffic regulations — display warning signs and turn on running lights.
Recommended for large tractors (100 HP and above). Lowboy trailers have a lower center of gravity, making them safer for heavy equipment transport.
Shandong Lifetree Machinery offers one-stop export logistics — from container loading and customs clearance to ocean shipping, we handle it all.

The air brake lines connecting a tractor's head unit to the trailer are critical for safe operation. Here's how to protect them:
Use protective sleeves: Install spring guards or nylon braided sleeves over the air lines to prevent abrasion and cuts
Proper routing: Ensure adequate bend radius — avoid sharp bends that could kink or rupture the lines
Regular inspections: Check for aging, cracks, or leaks before every trip
Keep away from sharp objects: Secure the routing away from exhaust pipes and other high-temperature components
Winter protection: In cold climates, regularly drain moisture from the air system to prevent freezing and blockages
Use quick-connect couplings: These reduce wear from repeated connect/disconnect cycles
An overheated radiator can cause serious engine damage and shorten the tractor's lifespan. Here's how to clean it properly:
Shut down and cool: Turn off the engine and wait until the coolant temperature drops to a safe level
External cleaning: Use compressed air to blow out dust, grass clippings, and debris from the fins — blow from the inside out
Water rinse: Use a low-pressure washer from the engine side toward the fan. Do not use high pressure — it can bend the delicate cooling fins
Degreaser treatment: For oil and grease, spray a dedicated radiator cleaner, let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse
Internal flushing (descaling): Every 2 years, use a cooling system descaler to remove internal scale and mineral deposits
Check antifreeze: After cleaning, verify the antifreeze concentration and top up or replace as needed
Clean radiator surfaces after every workday
Check belt tension regularly
Maintain proper coolant levels
Avoid prolonged overloading
Coastal regions of Vietnam have strong demand for beach tractors, mainly used for:
Beach cleaning and leveling
Fishing port towing operations
Coastal construction projects
If you're looking for a beach tractor in Vietnam, Shandong Lifetree Machinery can export directly to your location. We offer multiple models equipped with wide tires and reinforced chassis, specifically designed to handle loose sand and wet terrain.
