IntroductionDesigned for winegrowers operating in narrow vineyards, the OPTIMUM 245 straddle tractor delivers manoeuvrability, power and multi-row capability. Able to work on two or three rows simultaneously, it supports tasks from tillage to spraying. PELLENC CONNECT enables real-time monitoring of plots and implements, on site or remotely, to optimise each pass.
Exceptional manoeuvrability in narrow vineyards- Robust, well-balanced chassis with three beam heights: 1,500 mm, 1,600 mm and 1,750 mm; low centre of gravity for stability on slopes
- Optimised steering: short wheelbase, 90° steering angle and reduced turning radius for fast headland manoeuvres
- Hydraulic variable track: inter-row width adjustable from 0.9 to 1.5 m directly from the cab via the EASY TOUCH joystick
- Multi-row operation: configurable to work on two or three rows to increase productivity
Day-to-day cab comfort and safety- Pressurised Category 4 cab (EN 15695) with effective filtration and reduced noise
- Heated, ventilated and ergonomically designed GRAMMER seat to limit operator fatigue
- Ample storage, Bluetooth radio, USB ports, 12V socket, refrigerated compartment and LED interior lighting
Panoramic vision and enhanced visibility- Central cab with curved glazing and slim pillars for an extended field of view
- 12 LED work lights and optional HD colour manoeuvring cameras with night vision for day/night operation
- Electrically heated mirrors and colour manoeuvring cameras
Intuitive straddle steering and PELLENC CONNECT- EASY DRIVE multifunction joystick and EASY TOUCH 10" touchscreen for rapid adjustments
- Customisable controls per implement and integrated maintenance diagnostics
- Real-time monitoring and data feedback via PELLENC CONNECT
Power, traction and stability- Perkins Stage V 136 HP engine delivering high torque and optimised fuel consumption
- POCLAIN 4-wheel drive and TWINLOCK traction control for optimum traction
- Low centre of gravity for enhanced stability on slopes
Versatility and compatible implements- Designed for mowing, topping, pruning, spraying and tillage; broad compatibility with vineyard implements
- Equipped with push, pull and rear tool carriers to adapt to multiple attachments
- E-SPRAYER electric sprayers: reduced drift, optimised dosage and rapid application for narrow rows
- MULTIVITI 12 chassis: centralised control and safe implement attachment from the cab; compact and ergonomic design
- F34_C DRIVE pruner: optimised cutterbars for rapid topping while preserving vine quality
- Pre-pruners for narrow vineyards: fast and precise, with several cutting systems and optional detection systems
Pre-pruner cutting systems and detection options- DISCO cutting system:
- Suited to difficult terrain, including slopes
- Lightweight and compact for easy passage
- Durable disc system delivering clean cuts and low maintenance
- High-quality steel discs for longevity
- MARGUERITES cutting system:
- High-quality cut and shredding, even in dense vegetation
- Blade/antiblade design limits debris and protects wires
- Ideal for a neat finish
- Double-sharpened Pradines blades for extended life and reduced upkeep
- Detection systems (model/options dependent):
- Optical detection: automatic opening as posts pass for precise clearance around posts; settings adjustable
- 2-row magnetic detection: for vineyards trained on metal posts; ultra-sensitive magnetic sensors enable automatic opening/closing of cutting heads at speed
