Info
In 1977, PT models were introduced alongside the Series III ST models. These had a narrower frame and a hydrostatic power take-off, which delivered 125 horsepower. These models were 12.5 cm narrower than the ST models and had a smaller fuel tank.
Starting from 1978, PTA models were added to the lineup, featuring an Allison automated transmission. There were 8+2 gears with two ranges and gear automation operating within each range. In later PTA models, there were 10+2 gears and slower gear ratios.

The data has been collected primarily from brochures. In some cases, sources contain conflicting information. In such cases, we have attempted to select the most reliable information.
There is particularly significant variation in speed data, which varies depending on factors such as tire size. For tires, only the size most commonly used in Finland is listed.
Other changes during the model history have been addressed in the text section. For the front axle lock, the Finnish term "hammaslukko" (gear lock) is used for all 100% locks.
