OverviewThe PELLENC OPTIMUM 140 is a high-clearance straddle tractor engineered for narrow vineyards. Lightweight and compact, it minimises soil compaction and enables precise work close to the vines. The 3-wheel architecture improves steering on headlands and allows tilt correction up to 10%. Large PTO and auxiliary hydraulic flows support a wide range of implements for year-round vineyard operations.
