The Sonalika MM-18, an 18 HP compact tractor, is meticulously designed to address the unique requirements of small-scale and niche farming operations. With a single-cylinder, 863.5 cc engine, this model provides sufficient power for tasks such as tilling, small-scale plowing, hauling, and horticultural applications. Its compact size and manageable weight enable excellent maneuverability, making it ideal for farms with limited space, orchards, and gardens where larger tractors may not be practical.
Durability and efficiency are at the forefront of the MM-18's design. The water-cooled engine ensures temperature stability during extended use, while an oil-bath air filter optimizes engine performance and longevity by efficiently trapping dust and impurities. With an oil-immersed braking system, the tractor also offers smooth, controlled braking, reducing wear and extending brake life.
The Sonalika MM-18’s transmission system features six forward and two reverse gears, providing a versatile speed range for various applications. The PTO (Power Take-Off) at 15 HP is suitable for driving attachments like small rotavators, seeders, and sprayers, enhancing the tractor's versatility. Its 800 kg hydraulic lifting capacity and Category II three-point linkage allow it to handle compatible implements effectively, making it a robust yet compact partner for diverse agricultural needs. The 28-liter fuel tank offers long operational hours, minimizing downtime in the field, and making the Sonalika MM-18 an efficient, reliable choice for farmers focused on maximizing productivity with a smaller machine.
