Landini launches 6544 ‘large compact’ tractor with attractive all-in specification

Four-cylinder 2.5-litre Mitsubishi engine with 57hp output

Synchro-shuttle transmission with creep – 32 forward, 16 reverse

Three-speed power take-off, 1750kg hydraulic lift

Cab with air conditioning standard equipment

The Landini 6544 'large compact' tractor has features and a base specification more often seen on higher horsepower models.

The newcomer has been introduced to complement the existing Compact 40-series models from 28hp to 47hp and bridge the gap to the full size Landini Powerfarm.

"I think this tractor will have widespread appeal for light farm work, so-called hobby farming and groundscare work," says Adrian Winnett of Landini UK. "The standard specification for a tractor of this size is excellent and it's well put together."

The Landini 6544's 2.5-litre Mitsubishi four-cylinder engine develops 57hp and drives through a 32x16 synchro-shuttle transmission with creep ratios included as standard.

For operating implements there is a three-speed pto system that provides 540rpm at standard engine rpm or at a slower speed for greater fuel economy. The 1000rpm setting is suited to more demanding equipment and in all cases the system is engaged at the flick of a switch thanks to the electro-hydraulic control.

Twin double-acting remote hydraulic valves ensure the tractor has no problem operating a wide range of implements and with 1750kg of implement lift available, it can handle plenty of different kit too – especially since a big tractor's combination of draft, position and mix settings are available to suit different equipment and tasks. There is even a convenient one-shot lift lever and release button for quick raising and lowering of implements for headland turns.

The tractor comes as standard with a spacious air conditioned driver's cab, hydrostatic twin-ram steering with 55deg steer angle on the portal front axle, and a steering column that is adjustable for rake to help the driver get comfortable.

Landini's dealers around the country have full details of the impressive new machine.
