Solis 40 Compact Tractor – 38hp 4WD Compact for Serious Small-Scale Work
Compact footprint, proper tractor capability.
The Solis 40 Compact Tractor gives you the feel of a “real” tractor in a compact, easy-to-manage package. With a 38hp Mitsubishi diesel engine, 4WD, and practical hydraulics, the Solis 40 Compact Tractor suits small holdings, equestrian yards, landscaping, light agriculture and construction support where space is limited but the work is still demanding.
Efficient 38hp Mitsubishi Diesel Power
Under the bonnet, the Solis 40 Compact Tractor runs a 3-cylinder Mitsubishi water-cooled diesel engine producing around 38hp from 1,642cc at 2,600 rpm. This gives smooth, usable torque for topping, flail mowing, light cultivation and towing.
Because the engine uses proven Mitsubishi technology, it remains reliable, fuel-efficient and straightforward to service, which helps keep running costs sensible over the long term.
8×8 Gearbox with 4WD and Diff Lock
To match power to the job, the Solis 40 Compact Tractor comes with an 8 forward / 8 reverse gearbox. As a result, you can choose sensible working speeds for mowing, loader work, scraper duty or yard shunting without over-complicating things.
In addition, 4-wheel drive and a differential lock give you extra traction when ground conditions turn slippery. This combination helps the Solis 40 Compact Tractor stay productive on wet grass, loose soil and uneven tracks rather than sitting and spinning.
Compact Size with Stable Handling
Although this is a capable compact tractor, it still fits where larger utility tractors struggle. With an approximate turning radius of 2.5m, the Solis 40 Compact Tractor works confidently around buildings, gateways and tight headlands.
At roughly 1,270kg, the tractor feels stable on rougher ground but still keeps ground pressure moderate compared with heavier machines. Therefore, it suits paddocks, arenas, parkland and landscaped areas where you want power without excessive weight.
PTO and Hydraulics Ready for Implements
The Solis 40 Compact Tractor is fully set up for real work with attachments. It features a rear PTO with 540 and up to 2,300 rpm, so you can match PTO speed to finishing mowers, toppers, flails, paddock cleaners and other powered implements.
On the rear, you get three-point CAT I linkage with a 1,000kg lift capacity plus a 1DA hydraulic control unit. Consequently, the Solis 40 Compact Tractor can run rear-mounted mowers, light cultivators, box graders and a wide range of groundcare or small-farm tools.
Operator Comfort and Practical Details
Even though it’s a compact machine, the Solis 40 Compact Tractor still looks after the operator. You get power steering and an adjustable sprung seat with safety belt, which together reduce fatigue on longer days. An illuminated dashboard also helps when you need to work in low light.
For everyday practicality, the tractor includes a 12V 85Ah battery, 7-pin trailer socket and a 38-litre fuel tank. Tyres are typically front 7.00 x 16 and rear 11.2 x 24, with Agricultural, Turf or Industrial tread options available, so you can tailor the Solis 40 Compact Tractor to paddocks, lawns, hard standing or mixed use.
