Check equipment before buying

Power is one check. Connections and crop support matter too.

Check power and connections before buying. Read the implement’s required power and compare it with your configured tractor, then inspect the hitch, PTO, hydraulics and attachment restrictions in your game.

Check supported crops or fill types, capacity and operating mass. A horsepower match alone does not establish that a trailer can be pulled safely or that a tool attaches.

Use the compatibility tool for the power and hitch checks. “Compatibility not confirmed” means evidence is missing, not that the machines cannot work together. Even a basic match leaves PTO, hydraulics, brakes and configuration checks to you.
