Electric Hydrostatic Transmission

Electric Hydrostatic Transmission

5000 platform compact tractors offer an electronic hydrostatic transmission (E-HST). You get the simple, easy change of direction of hydraulic transmission. And the electronic acceleration provides near-effortless effort on the travel pedal to control your speed. EST enables true cruise control which allows the tractor to maintain a set speed to changing ground and road conditions - ideal for work requiring a continuous speed for coverage or application.
