    Arion 650

    REVIEW:

    Last year we added an Arion 650 to the farm. It has so far proven its worth. The new 4 pillar cab is fantastic for visibility and gives a lot more space in the cab. The cab layout is fantastic. The new brain like joystick in the cebis models provides every thing needed in day to day use with in a fingers reach. All the controls are simple and easy to operate. The new dash board is much better although the fuel gauge is not very easy to interpret. The steering column can now be lower and raise by a foot pedal which is better than levers.
    The cab and axle suspension make it one of most comfortable tractors I have ever driven.
    It power to weight ration is good. It is capable of towing an 18t trailer and 15,000 litre bowser. It uses a 4metre power harrow combination and 6 furrow plough and copes fine.
    The only down sides to it are we had problems with the air conditioning not being powerful enough and could do with being around 200-220hp to cover the power to weight ratio better as it would enable it to cover a wider job bracket.
    But overall a brilliant tractor!
