Compact utility tractor
In the middle of the photo above (left photo) is a 24 hp (18 kW) diesel Urban Tractor or Compact Utility
Tractor (CUT) illustrating the size difference between a small 40 hp farm tractor and a garden tractor.
A Compact Utility Tractor, also called a CUT, ranges from 20 to 100 horsepower (15-74 kW) with available
power take off (PTO) horsepower ranging from 15 to 45 hp (11-34 kW). CUTs are often equipped with both a
mid-mounted PTO and a standard rear PTO. All modern CUTs feature a government mandated roll over
protection structure (ROPS). Some CUTs have an enclosed cab (right photo).
Compact Utility Tractors require special smaller implements than full size agricultural tractors. Common
attachments for a Compact Utility Tractor are:
1. Front end loader or FEL.
2. Adjustable three-point hitch.
3. Compact backhoes.
4. Box blade.
5. Grader blade.
6. Landscape rake.
7. Post hole digger (or post hole auger).
8. Rotary cutter (also called a slasher or a brush hog).
9. Mid or rear mount finish mower.
10. Broadcast seeder.
11. Subspoiler.
12. Rototiller (also rotary tiller).
13. Front or rear mounted snow blower.
14. Front mounted rotary boom.
15. Planter.
