Product Description
•
The 3200 is a unique
all-wheel-drive
power unit that distributes its power to four equal sized fl otation
tires for excellent control, traction, stability, maneuvering, and braking.
•
An innovative, patented Tandem Drive Train, coupled with a uni-body articulated and oscillating frame,
creates a quiet, effi cient, and powerful all-wheel-drive performer.
•
The 3200 has power steering and a turning radius of 28 inches (71 cm) to maneuver in and around tight
places with ease.
•
Tandem hydrostatic transmissions are controlled with Ventrac’s patented S.D.L.A. control, which is
located next to the operator, allowing for easy control of Speed, Direction, Lift, and Auxiliary functions
with one hand.
•
The 3200 is designed with the operator seated up-front for unobstructed visibility of attachments and
terrain ahead and allows for a rear mounted engine that keeps heat, exhaust, and noise located behind
the operator.
•
The 3200 is equipped with Ventrac’s minute mount system. This allows you to change the front
mounted attachments quickly and effi ciently, while moving from job to job with minimal effort. A rear
mounted 2” receiver hitch is also a standard feature.
