Trackless MT6: 2008 – 2016

Production of the Trackless MT6 began in 2008. A number of modern improvements were added to the MT6 machine, including decreased fuel consumption, a variety of new safety features, and a new look for the cab. The MT6 was powered by a 115hp Cummins Model QSB4.5 engine with 360lbs of torque. A number of new attachments were also added to the Trackless Vehicles line-up with the MT6.

MT6 Operator Safety Features

  • A neutral safety start prevents the engine from starting unless shifted into neutral.

  • A seat safety switch automatically shuts down the PTO shaft and any hydraulically powered attachment if the operator leaves the driver’s seat.
  • If the operator leaves the seat without placing the shifter into neutral, the engine will shut down.

  • Tractor has hydraulic brakes at each wheel. There is also a mechanical parking brake that can be applied if hydraulic brakes fail.

  • Cab is ROPS certified and there is a certification tag attached to the inside of the cab.

  • The tractor has reflective striping on both sides of cab and rear side hoods, as well as on the rear hood below the tail lights.

  • Tractor has a backup alarm activated by the forward / neutral / reverse lever.

  • The tractor has Safety, Danger, Caution and Pinch Point decals.

  • External lift cylinder switch controls the lift cylinders hydraulic flow which eliminates the need for a second person to operate the controls.

  • Orange seatbelt so supervisors at a quick glance can see if the operator is wearing it.

  • Seat belt interlock incorporates a safety interlock system which only allows the tractor to move when the seat belt is fastened.
