Optimizing Performance: Upgrading the LM Trac 287 for Year-Round Efficiency

We recently worked on an exciting project fitting the LM Trac 287 Multi-Purpose Compact Tractor with a range of powerful attachments. Kersten attachments expand functionality for professionals who need reliable, versatile equipment to tackle sweeping, leaf and debris management, and snow clearance. Here’s a closer look at the attachments we installed and how they improve productivity for operators in municipal maintenance, facility management, and landscaping.

The Right Equipment for the Job

When choosing attachments for the LM Trac 287, we focused on three key aspects: efficiency, ease of use, and adaptability to different terrains and weather conditions. The selected attachments significantly improve performance, making everyday tasks faster and more effective.

1. KM 15045 H-ABR Sweeper: A Heavy-Duty Cleaning Solution

Keeping streets, pavements, and large outdoor areas clear of debris is a major challenge, especially for municipalities and contractors handling large-scale maintenance.

Key Features:

1. 150cm working width & 45cm diameter brush – Covers more ground in less time.
2. Five-row combi-poly brush – Effectively handles bulky debris with ease.
3. Pendulum suspension system – Ensures smooth performance on uneven surfaces.
4. 26° mechanical angling left & right – Provides flexibility, with an optional hydraulic upgrade for even greater control.
5. Compact design – The inboard-mounted motor with duplex chain drive keeps the unit narrow and maneuverable.
6. Ideal for compact tractors & mowers (12-40hp).

2. LBV 6900 H-ABR Leaf & Debris Blower: Lightweight Power

Managing fallen leaves and debris can be a time-consuming task, especially in autumn. The Kersten LBV 6900 H offers a powerful yet lightweight solution for clearing leaves, grass clippings, and light debris from roads, parks, and sports grounds.

1. Hydraulic-driven blower – Runs from the LM Trac 287’s hydraulic services, reducing the need for additional power sources.
2. Lightweight and quiet operation – Provides excellent maneuverability without excessive noise pollution.
3. Versatile mounting options – Fits compact tractors, ride-on mowers, and sub-compact tractors.

3. SCHN 15060 FK-ABR Snow Plough: Winter Maintenance Made Easy

Winter weather brings additional challenges, and keeping roads and paths clear of snow is a top priority. The SCHN 15060 FK-ABR Snow Plough is designed to handle even the toughest conditions, ensuring safe passage for pedestrians and vehicles.

Key Features:

1. 150cm working width & 60cm blade height – Covers large areas efficiently.
2. Hydraulic control from driver’s seat – Allows smooth angling adjustments up to 28°.
3. Heavy-duty ROBALON scraper bar – Durable and protects surfaces from damage.
4. Spring-back blade with return springs – Prevents damage when encountering obstacles.
5. Adjustable skids – Enhances adaptability for different surfaces.

For facility managers, local councils, and contractors, efficiency and reliability are key. By upgrading the LM Trac 287 with these high-performance attachments, operators can handle seasonal and year-round maintenance tasks with greater speed and effectiveness.

If you’re looking for a multi-purpose compact tractor setup that enhances productivity, reduces manual effort, and adapts to various conditions, this combination is a game-changer.
