Comfort and safety: the future of steering
15th January 2024
Innovations in machine engineering are changing the way we farm forever.
Making the working day more comfortable, safer and ultimately increasingly productive.
Advances in cab comfort are ensuring we put less stress on our bodies and can work effectively for longer.
Minimum effort, maximum precision
Many everyday farming tasks require a high number of steering movements, particularly when working with accessories like front loaders. Innovation in the cab can really play a part in improving the way we work.
Fendt has risen to the challenge with the new Fendt ErgoSteer joystick which delivers on both comfort and accuracy. It allows you to control your machine effortlessly with minimal stress on your body. It also improves safety; with a clearer line of sight you’ll have better visibility.
By using a joystick rather than a conventional steering wheel a driver can control the direction of a tractor with a simple movement of the wrist. This always allows for an upright seating position which promotes ergonomic working and counteracts tension in the shoulder and neck area. It means you could work better for longer.
NEW Fendt ErgoSteer joystick
The specially developed steering joystick can be added to your tractor as a retrofit solution. Use it with the FendtONE armrest and connect to Fendt Guide for the ultimate steering solution. Find out more about the joystick and what it would mean for your cab comfort.
