Air-suspended tractor seats
During long working days on the field or construction site, a good seat can make all the difference. Air-suspended tractor seats provide ultimate comfort and are designed to minimize shocks and vibrations, even under the toughest conditions. At Techniek Totaal, you’ll find a wide range of air-suspended seats suitable for various brands and models.
What is an air-suspended tractor seat?
An air-suspended tractor seat is equipped with an advanced suspension system where an airbag provides cushioning. This system automatically adjusts to your weight, resulting in an even distribution of shocks and vibrations. Unlike mechanical seats, which use coil springs and shock absorbers, an air-suspended seat offers a higher level of comfort, ideal for long working days and rough terrain.
These seats are often used in modern agricultural machinery, construction equipment, and other vehicles where comfort and ergonomics are paramount. With adjustable settings, you can customize the seat to your personal preference, helping to prevent back pain and fatigue.
Tips for using air-suspended tractor seats
-
Adjust the air pressure correctly
Most air-suspended seats have a lever or button to adjust the air pressure. Ensure the seat responds well to your movements without feeling too stiff or too soft. This prevents back strain and provides optimal cushioning. -
Regularly check the airbag
The airbag is a crucial part of the seat. Inspect it regularly for cracks or leaks. A damaged airbag can affect the seat’s performance, leading to less comfortable rides. -
Use a seat cover
Protect your seat’s upholstery with a cover, especially if your tractor is often outdoors or in dusty conditions. This extends the upholstery’s lifespan and keeps the seat in good condition. -
Ensure secure installation
Check that the seat is firmly installed in the cabin. A well-secured seat contributes to a safer and more comfortable workspace.
