CT440 Quick Specs


Before he purchased the Bobcat tractor, Kessler compared it to other tractor manufacturers. He certainly did his homework before he selected the Bobcat model.


“I was looking for the entire package — a good sales representative, reliable equipment and quality parts and service,” Kessler says. “I found that with my local Bobcat dealer.”


Kessler prefers the hydrostatic transmission to minimize changing gears when changing speeds. He says it’s much easier for him to operate.


“It operates much smoother than some other compact tractors I’ve operated,” he says. “It’s much more comfortable, and the hydraulics seem to work very well. If I’m on the compact tractor, I want it to be productive.


“I regularly use the front-end loader and the backhoe at this farm, or we’ll load it onto a trailer and take it to jobs to dig footings and trenches for underground pipe. This farm is about 82 acres, and I have a second farm that’s 50 acres. It’s a good bit to maintain. The Bobcat tractor helps me keep the farms looking good. There is forever something to maintain.”
