The Versatile Row Crop Tractors are industry leading, full-featured tractors with almost 20 years of field proven performance.
Available with 250, 280 or 305 hp, the Versatile Row Crop Tractors are powered by the Cummins QSC 8.3L engine that delivers
a combination of power, economy and performance. The Cummins QSC engine is matched to a smooth shifting powershift
transmission that has 16 forward and 9 reverse speeds with operator programmable features designed to match your work
requirements. Finger tip electro-hydraulics with the optional HydraFlow Plus package
deliver 55 gpm (208 lpm) to meet the demands of modern implements.
A history of success
Versatile was the first company to mass-produce articulated four-wheel drive tractors, starting in 1966 with the D100 and G100 four-wheel drives.
Those ground-breaking tractors were primitive by modern standards, with a 6-cylinder diesel or 8-cylinder gas engine producing 100 horsepower.
1966 models sold for less than $10,000.
In the 1970’s, four-wheel drive demand
increased significantly with Versatile
becoming a leader in four-wheel drive
development and production. By the late
1970’s the Versatile lineup included tractors
ranging from 220 to 330 horsepower. With
the 1980’s came an expanded line of fourwheel
drive tractors that stretched to 470
horsepower in the Versatile 1150.
In 1987, Versatile was acquired by Ford
New Holland and by 1989 the four-wheel
drive tractors assembled at the Winnipeg
factory were painted in the Ford colors,
blue, black and white, and carried the Ford
Versatile name. Production of blue fourwheel
drive tractors under the New Holland
name continued until 2000.
Buhler Industries Inc., a Canadian-owned
farm equipment manufacturer, purchased
the Winnipeg production facility from New
Holland in 2000. Buhler continued to build
the Genesis 2WD/FWD tractor and the
2000 Series four-wheel drive and in 2004
launched the High Horsepower Tractor
Series. With 435, 485 and 535 horsepower,
it was the most powerful four-wheel drive
tractor available in North America.
Buhler celebrated 40 Years of Versatile
tractor production in 2006 and
commemorated 50,000 Versatile-built
four-wheel drives in late 2007. At the same
time, Combine Factory Rostselmash Ltd., a
Russian combine manufacturer, purchased
80% of the common shares of Buhler
Industries Inc. At the North American dealer
meeting in 2008, the company announced
the return of Versatile branded tractors.
The reputation of Versatile continues today,
known worldwide for reliability, durability
and ease of service and maintenance.
The Versatile partnership with Cummins dates back to the late 1960’s. The QSC 8.3-liter in the Versatile Row
Crop Tractors join the QSM 11-liter and QSX 15-liter that power the Versatile four-wheel drives.
The power to perform
The Versatile Row Crop Tractors are powered by the Cummins QSC 8.3-liter that features the latest in diesel engine technology. Cummins is the
exclusive engine supplier across the entire range of Versatile tractors. Engineers from both companies worked together to ensure seamless integration
of the engine with the transmission and electronics.
Cummins QSC
The Cummins QSC 8.3-liter is a market leader in horsepower and torque. This turbocharged engine, with electronic controlled high-pressure
common-rail injection, offers smooth power delivery and fast engine response with less vibration. In addition this model is excellent for cold
starting ability with an integral air inlet heater.
Engine Features
The QSC 8.3-liter combines productivity and power with fuel efficiency. Using Cummins advanced in-cylinder technology, the QSC maintains
performance, dependability and durability while operating cleanly and efficiently. Advanced electronics enhance engine performance, with better
torque and faster throttle response. The Cummins QSC 8.3-liter has a history of reliability and durability in the agriculture industry, known for its
cold start ability and smooth operation, including less engine noise and vibration which means less operator fatigue.
Powershift transmission
Geared for peak operation in the field, the 16-speed full powershift transmission includes the
features that farmers want from a tractor in this class.
Upshifting and downshifting is as easy as a
flick of the wrist with the bump-shift lever.
The optional left-hand shuttle shift makes
changing directions even easier, particularly
when the tractor is equipped with a frontend
loader. The Versatile Row Crop Tractors
are designed to work the way you want to.
Both models are equipped with an 16 x 9
full powershift transmission. An innovative
design that features large helical cut case
hardened gears on roller bearings ensures
the assembly is durable, smooth and quiet.
More than just power
Modern implements require more flow from the hydraulic system, constant speed from the
power take-off and load-bearing capacity at the drawbar. The Versatile 250 to 305 have been
designed to handle these rigorous demands
Electro-Hydraulics
The closed center load sensing hydraulic
system provides ample capacity for
implements that demand high hydraulic flow
by providing pressure and flow on demand.
When no hydraulic power is required, the
system goes into low-pressure standby to
conserve energy, providing more power at
the drawbar.
Electro-hydraulics are standard and are
ergonomically designed for both comfort
and convenience. Finger-tip controls
manage the hydraulic functions and
hydraulic flow is increased or decreased by
rotary thumb wheels.
The Versatile 250 to 305 have a total
hydraulic flow of 30 GPM (114 L/min),
or 55 GPM (208 L/min) with the optional
HydraFlow Plus hydraulic system. Three
remote valves are standard and a fourth
remote valve is optional.
PTO
The fully-independent PTO features multiplate,
bronze friction clutches for smooth,
shock free implement starting. The 250
comes standard with 540/1000 dual speed
PTO. The 280 and 305 come with the 1000
RPM PTO as standard equipment.
Hitch
The drawbar is equipped with an auto
hitch pin that will automatically drop
in place when hitching up implements.
When backing up the tractor to attach
an implement, the implement hitch will
contact the release strap and the pin then
drops automatically into place, without the
operator having to leave the cab, or without
the need of a second operator.
The heavy-duty, swinging drawbar with
hammerstrap may be fixed in any of five
lateral positions or allowed to swing the full
width of the hanger
Built to pull
Versatile 250 to 305 with front-wheel assist are available with an optional UltraSteer front axle
for a sharper turning radius that increases productivity
The heavy-duty cast iron rear axle housing with a massive crown and pinion gear set, drive
a heavy-duty inboard planetary axle. This gives efficient speed reduction from the transmission
a heavy-duty inboard planetary axle. This gives efficient speed reduction from the transmission
to the ground.
UltraSteer
The UltraSteer front axle improves turning radius and maneuverability for better efficiency and
less wasted time. Add the optional traction control system (TCS), with front differential locks to
make this tractor a real workhorse in the field. All TCS models can be ordered with optional front
duals for increased traction and flotation.
