19 Jul, 2024

Solis Tractors needs no introduction as this tractor manufacturing brand has managed to become ‘Viksit Kisan ki Pehli Pasand’ and earned the tag of ‘‘Global 4WD expert’ in the tractor industry. With its partnership with Yanmar, a leading Japan-based tractor brand, Solis became one of those rare tractor brands in India that offers international quality standards and unmatched performance at an affordable cost.

Some of its tractor models such as Solis 5015E are now being tagged as “The most powerful multi-speed tractors in India’’. The multi-speed tractor range of Solis tractors comes with some of the most unique and industry-first features that make it stand out from the crowd.

Enough talking. Let us explain to you the reasons and features why Soils tractors are considered the most powerful multi-speed tractors in India. 

Features Like Never Before 

As Solis 5015 E is one of the most inventive and revolutionary multi-speed tractor models from the house of Solis, it’s the best reference to explain how Solis became “Viksit Kisan ki Pehli Pasand”.

A. Modern and High-speed Transmission 

Solis 5015E is a multi-speed tractor that provides multi-speed transmission in a manner that its users can find an ideal speed for each farming requirement.

It comes with a side shift type transmission and provides comfort to the farmers while driving the tractor.

The gearbox is designed in a way that farmers engage in different types of farming activities and using a wide range of implements have a suitable speed. You get 10 forward and 5 reverse gears along with a special 5th gear in Solis 5015 E, which is more than other tractors such as John Deere 5050D (8 forward+4 reverse gears) and New Holland 3600-2 (8 forward+2 reverse gears). With this multi-speed transmission, farmers can enjoy a wide range of speed options to match the optimal working speed for each task, from tillage to transport. 

B. Inline Mech Reverser 

Driving Solis 5015E with the loader and dozer attachment is a hassle-free task because of its Inline Mech Reverser feature. With the help of this feature, farmers can move tractors quickly in forward and reverse directions.

While other tractors require frequent gear changes to go from low to medium or high speed, the Solis tractor has low and reverse in one line. So, no frequent gear changes are required. Because of this, gears experience less friction while farmers have a better driving experience. This inventory feature is offered at no additional cost in multi-speed Solis 5015E tractor models whereas brands like John Deere and New Holland offer it at an additional cost of INR 60,000.

C. Maximum Road Speed in the Segment 

If we talk about the maximum road speed (38.9 Kmph), it is 15% higher than many of the other tractor models from this category. Other top models in this segment such as John Deere 5050D and New Holland 3600-2 offer a maximum road speed of 32 KMPH and 33 KMPH respectively. 

Because of this high road speed, Solis multi-speed tractors allow farmers to finish more work in comparatively reduced time. 

D. Special Speed Options for Implements

Working with implements such as rotavators, straw reapers, and cultivators becomes easy when farmers have adequate speed options to support the operation of the mentioned implements. However, many tractor models in this segment offer limited speed options. Gladly, Solis’s multi-speed tractors didn’t overlook the importance of having to implement specific speed options. 

• For Rotavators

Having an optimal tractor speed is crucial while using a rotavator farm implement. If the tractor is moving too slowly then the rotavator might get clogged and the tractor engine will become overloaded. On the other hand, if the tractor is moving too fast with a rotavator attached then it leads to poor soil pulverization, high fuel consumption, and uneven tilling.

Farmers using other tractors from this segment only get the standard single-speed option (L1) while working with rotavators. This leads to no scope of finding the ideal speed based on the soil type. 
However, Solis 5015 E has two dedicated speeds for rotavators. When farmers get one extra speed with a rotavator, they can finish their work quickly while saving diesel. 

• For Straw Reaper 

A straw reaper is a kind of implement that delivers the best possible performance when used at a lower speed range. Straw reaper working at a lower speed ensures efficient cutting, threshing, and cleaning of the straw.

Solis 5015E, Solis’s most powerful multi-speed tractor, offers two-speed options (L1 and L2) for straw reaper applications. The L1 speed limit is 2.5 kilometers per hour and is perfect for the owners of wet farmlands whereas the L2 speed limit is 4.5 kilometers per hour and is ideal for dry farmland. Solis 5015 E can operate at L2 speed without facing any drop in RPM. 

• For Cultivator 

Farmers can use a cultivator at 4 speeds, depending on the type of farm soil. This leads to quick and precise farming. Farmers can use the cultivator at L3 and H1 speeds for hard soil, whereas L4 and L5 speeds are ideal for normal soil. Since other tractor models have only L4 and H1 options, it is obvious why the Solis 5015E has become” Viksit Kisan ki Pehli Pasand”. 

Other Features Adding Value to the Solis Multi-Speed Tractors 

While ground-breaking transmission, multi-speed gearbox, and implement-specific speed options establish Solis multi-speed tractors as the best of the breed, there are some more features adding value to these tractors. Have a look at them as well.

• To make sure that farmers experience high-weight lifting with the utmost precision, Solis multi-speed tractors are equipped with the best sensing and hydrotronic ADDC technology with up to 2000 KG lifting capacity, which is 15% higher than many other tractor models. 

• The Solis E3 engine is featured in the E series tractor models, including the Solis 5015 E. It is powered by Japanese technology and helps farmers experience 20% extra power, 20% extra torque, and 15% extra mileage compared to other tractors in this class. 

• The E3 engine is a non-turbo one with a displacement of 3065 cc, which is way better than the John Deere 5050D (2900 cc engine) and New Holland 3600-2 (2931 cc engine). This non-turbo engine is capable of generating more power while keeping pressure on the engine optimal. 

• The Solis 5015E uses renowned Japanese technology not only in engine, transmission, and hydraulics but also in styling so that farmers experience the best possible comfort. Its extra-wide 24-inch platform ensures that farmers have adequate space while working.

• Extra cushioning on its seat and long back support give unmatched comfort to the driver. The "4-way adjustable seat" is super flexible and can be adjusted as per the requirement. This type of seating gives a car-like driving experience while reducing fatigue, resulting from long-duration usage. 

• The Solis multispeed tractor allows farmers to make farming affordable with its 5-year warranty and 500 hours of service interval, resulting in 2x savings on tractor maintenance. Missing a scheduled servicing leads to high spending. But, Solis’s multi-speed tractors come with a service schedule buzzer to make sure you don’t miss out on any due servicing. 

• The company-fitted accessories such as a bumper, tow hook, projector lamp, 1 DA/SA directional control valves, digital instrument cluster systems, seats with high backrests, etc are worth over Rs 1,25,000/- and are included in the Solis 5015 E price itself. 

In Closing 

Solis integrated highly acclaimed 100-year-old Japanese technology into its multi-speed tractors astutely. The company integrated this technology in a manner that farmers experience the best possible performance, return on investment, comfort, and flexibility.

From a modern E3 engine to 10 forward+5 reverse gears, Solis’s multi-speed tractor, Solis 5015E, is certainly the “Most powerful multi-speed tractor” and ‘Viksit kisan ki pehli pasand’. So, when are you investing in this tractor?
