Folger Products
Folger specializes in manufacturing front linkage and PTO systems, offering one of the world's largest ranges of high-quality front power systems, enhancing tractor productivity. Their robust front linkage systems are available in Cat I, II, and III options, with some models lifting up to 3000kg, greatly expanding tractor capabilities. Paired with Kersten UK attachments, the possibilities for your tractor's performance are significantly broadened.
Why do you need a front linkage and PTO system
Heavy Lifting Power
Our robust front linkages boast impressive lifting capacity, designed to handle attachments ranging from 300 kg to 1,350 kg and beyond. Attach heavy tools with confidence knowing your tractor’s strength won’t be compromised.
Quick Attach & Detach
Effortlessly switch attachments mid-job without wasting time or energy. Front linkages make attachment changes quick and hassle-free, keeping your workflow uninterrupted.
Precision for Maximum Efficiency
Front linkages allow for precise adjustments to your attachments, enabling the operator to fine-tune the angle and position for optimal performance and efficient results every time.
Better Material Handling
Positioning attachments at the front of your tractor allows you to handle material before driving over it, preventing compaction and making it easier to manage. This is especially useful when dealing with loose debris, snow, or overgrown weeds.
A front linkage system allows for easy attachment of tools like sweepers and snow ploughs to the front of the tractor, improving versatility and efficiency. Additionally, they offer the flexibility to adjust the position of these attachments with precision and efficiency, ensuring optimal performance for various tasks.
A PTO system provides power to attachments, enabling them to perform tasks like lifting, sweeping, or ploughing without compromising tractor performance.
Front-mounted attachments offer several advantages, especially for tasks requiring precision and control. By placing the attachments in front, operators can handle materials like snow, debris, or soil before driving over them, reducing soil compaction and preserving ground quality. The ability to adjust attachments with precision allows for better control over the task at hand, improving both efficiency and effectiveness. Whether managing loose materials or engaging in detailed work, front-mounted attachments make handling tasks more streamlined and productive.
Mechanical PTO (Power Take-Off) systems transfer power directly from the tractor’s engine to the attached implement, ensuring consistent power delivery with minimal loss. These systems are reliable for tasks requiring continuous and uniform power. However, hydraulic PTO systems provide more flexibility by allowing operators to adjust power output according to the task's demands. This adjustability reduces wear and tear on both the tractor and the attachment, making hydraulic systems more versatile for tasks that require variable power, such as mowing or heavy lifting.
Hydraulic PTOs are ideal for tasks where control over power intensity is crucial, while mechanical PTOs are better for straightforward, high-demand tasks requiring steady output.
Our Kersten tractor-mounted attachments are fully compatible with all front linkage systems here. This includes attachments such as sweepers, snow ploughs, and other tools designed for CAT 0, I, or II linkages, significantly expanding your tractor’s functionality.
