Compact tractors
New Holland’s new TZ Boomer series of sub-compact tractors comes in three models. All three have enough power to handle front or rear-mounted implements including snow blowers, tillers and front-end loaders.
The optional Sensitrak system, available on TZ22DA and TZ25DA models, engages and disengages the four-wheel drive automatically when required.
The Sensitrak system is designed to reduce turf damage, save wear and tear on the tractor’s tires and increase the life of driveline components.
All three TZ models have two power take-offs to power front- and rear-mounted implements. A mid pto at 2,200 rpm and rear pto at 540 rpm and a 700 pound lift, three-point hitch permit operation of power rotary tillers, snow blowers, rotary cutters, blades and front-end loaders.

Nytro Ag Corp and Green Lightning recieved an innovation award at Ag in Motion 2025 for the Green Lightning Nitrogen Machine, which converts atmospheric nitrogen into a plant-usable form.
A separate pump for the hydrostatic power steering provides plenty of hydraulic flow to the steering system to make the tractors manoeuvrable.
Equipped with the optional front-end loader, a TZ sub-compact can move mulch, gravel and snow. Its unique, curved-boom design provides reach and strength with less weight and mass than conventional “dog-leg” loader booms.
The curved boom and sloped TZ hood allows better visibility to the bucket.
Four-bar linkage provides greater rollback for more complete bucket filling, better material retention and a greater dump angle for cleaner dumping of sticky material. The Quick-Latch system lets the operator install the loader in minutes and remove it just as fast, without tools.
The TZ’s sloped, modern hood affords the operator good visibility. Halogen headlights provide ample illumination for nighttime jobs.
A wide-open platform with a padded, anti-skid deck is designed to provide a comfortable and safe working environment.
The high-backed contoured seat adjusts for weight and moves on an inclined-declined track to put the operator in a comfortable position.
