Solis 26 Compact Tractor – 26hp 4WD Compact for Small Holdings and Groundcare
Compact size, serious capability.
The Solis 26 Compact Tractor is a 26hp 4WD machine designed for owners who need more muscle than a lawn tractor but still want true compact dimensions. Whether you’re managing small holdings, equestrian yards, landscaping projects or private estates, the Solis 26 Compact Tractor delivers practical power in a manoeuvrable package.
Reliable 26hp Mitsubishi Diesel Power
Under the bonnet, the Solis 26 Compact Tractor runs a 3-cylinder Mitsubishi MLV-3E water-cooled diesel engine, producing 26hp from 952cc at 2,700 rpm. This gives smooth, usable torque for topping, towing, loader work and light groundcare.
Because the engine is simple and proven, it stays economical to run and straightforward to service, which is ideal for private owners and smaller professional fleets.
4WD Traction with Simple 6×2 Gearbox
The Solis 26 Compact Tractor uses 4-wheel drive, so it has much better grip on wet grass, loose soil and light slopes than a 2WD unit. As a result, it feels confident on paddocks, tracks and light off-road work.
You get 6 forward and 2 reverse gears through a straightforward mechanical gearbox. Therefore, you can choose a sensible working speed for mowing, scraping or towing without over-complicating operation. A single clutch with safety switch adds protection while still keeping the driveline simple and predictable.
Compact Dimensions and Tight Turning
Because the Solis 26 Compact Tractor is genuinely compact, it suits narrow gateways, stable yards and tight landscaping sites. With an approximate turning radius of 2.3m, it turns sharply in confined spaces, which helps around buildings, fences, trees and arenas.
Meanwhile, its weight of around 1,055kg keeps ground pressure relatively low, so it is kinder to turf and finished surfaces than heavier tractors, especially on lawns and paddocks.
PTO and Hydraulics Ready for Everyday Implements
Despite its size, the Solis 26 Compact Tractor is fully equipped to run a wide range of attachments. It comes with a rear PTO offering 540 and 1,000 rpm, so you can match implement needs and reduce engine revs where possible. This works well with finishing mowers, toppers, small flails, paddock cleaners and other light PTO tools.
On the rear, you get three-point CAT I linkage with a 500kg lift capacity, plus a 1DA hydraulic control unit with flow and pressureless return. Consequently, the tractor can handle rear scrapers, box graders, light cultivation tools and other compact implements used on small farms and private properties.
Operator Comfort and Practical Details
Although this is a compact tractor, operator comfort has still been considered. The Solis 26 Compact Tractor features an adjustable sprung seat with safety belt and an illuminated dashboard, so longer days and low-light work feel more manageable.
Additionally, a 12V 65Ah battery, 7-pin trailer socket and 26-litre fuel tank all help keep the tractor practical in daily use. Tyres are typically front 6.00 x 12 and rear 8.30 x 20, with Agricultural, Turf or Industrial tread options, so you can choose the best setup for paddocks, lawns or harder surfaces.
