4 Operator station and controls
A value tractor is of little value if it’s hard to operate. That’s
why the new 5003 Series Tractors have easy-to-use, color-coded controls. Orange to control the movement of the tractor, black to operate the attachments and yellow to control the PTO. And unlike other tractors in this price range, these levers are within your reach but out of the way. No awkward levers or controls to straddle as you get on and off the tractor. And once you’re on, there’s plenty of legroom and a comfortable seat.
Everything within reach,

Retractable seat belts roll up and out of the way, yet are easily accessible.
All 5003 Series Tractors come standard with storage locations
for tools, parts, and operator’s manuals. The toolbox is
located on the left fender for easy

A neutral start switch requires that

Unlike many competitive tractors, the 5003 Series
Tractors have separate hydraulic systems for implement control and braking and steering. You’re in total control with full hydraulic steering power, even when moving a heavy load. And up to four available SCVs give you more versatility with hydraulic implements. A detented float position on the SCV allows your implements to follow ground contours.
Powerful hydraulics, with a
The 5003 Series Tractors come equipped with a single rear SCV standard. Dual rear SCVs are available as an option. The open-center hydraulic systems provides plenty of flow for running hydraulic implements.

Loaders 7
Perhaps the most versatile attachment of all, a loader not only allows you to move materials quickly and efficiently, but with the Quik-Change attachment system you can also switch from a bucket to a pallet fork to a bale spear in seconds. The 512 Loader is a non-parkable loader, designed to be left on the tractor when not in use. The 522 and 542 Loaders are parkable loaders that can be removed from the tractor when not in use. The 542 Loader is available in self-leveling and non self-leveling models.
You can also equip your tractor with mid-mount dual SCVs with joystick control that operates independently of the rear SCVs. The dual mid-mount SCVs give you a total of up to four.

Choose the transmission that’s right for you. The 5003 Series
Tractors are now available in 2­wheel drive and 4-wheel drive models. Available 4-wheel drive gives you increased drawbar pull and improved traction when operating in slippery conditions. You’ll get more power to the ground for applications that demand more from your tractor.
Put tractor power
Two-wheel-drive models feature the SyncReverser transmission with 9 forward and 3 reverse speeds, ideal for loader applications and various other tasks that require frequent directional changes. With synchronized, in-line, shuttle shift capability, you can easily switch directions without having to completely stop the tractor. Forward shifting on-the-go between speeds and ranges is not synchronized.
Four-wheel-drive models have a 9F/3R SyncShuttle
when you need a durable basic transmission for a mix of field work and light loader work. You can easily select speeds or switch directions without having to completely stop the tractor with synchronized, in-line, shuttle shift capability. Synchronized shifts between speeds for on-the-go shifting with use of the clutch. Shifts between ranges are not synchronized.

to work for you
A hinged safety shield surrounds the PTO shaft. For easy hookups, it lifts up to allow a better view.
The perfect iMatch
Add an iMatch hitch to quickly switch implements without adjusting hitch geometry or struggling to move heavy implements. The iMatch hitch works with Cat. 1 or Cat. 2 implements. Try it yourself to see what a difference it makes.
Three-point Hitch and PTO 99
Get no-hassle versatility with a durable Cat. 2 hitch. Powerful. Lift up to 3,590 pounds
— more than enough for most implements. Accurate. You can position the center link in one of three holes to better set implement position and draft sensing. And lift links can be adjusted for lateral float. Perfect to help implements with gauge wheels or skids to follow the ground contour. Versatile. You can adjust sway chains to adapt to a wide variety of implements. And an adjustable depth stop provides consistency when lowering the hitch. Each time the position control lever is pushed forward, it will stop where the depth stop has been positioned. Perfect for creating a consistent, level ground when preparing a seedbed.
Optional telescoping draft links
Implement hook-up can be even easier with optional telescoping draft links. These links feature cross-drilled hitch balls to eliminate the need for
bushings.
The PTO shaft can cause serious injuries. The 5003 Series Tractors have an operator-presence alarm that warns you if you leave the PTO engaged when you get off the tractor. Also, the tractor will not start with the PTO engaged.
