T
ruter Boerdery het onlangs ontvangs geneem van die eerste
nuwe generasie Versatile trekker in Suid-Afrika. Die trekker
is die Versatile 570 met ‘n kraglewering van 399 kW. Verskeie
van die vorige model-reeks trekkers is vir jare in Suid-Afrika
in gebruik en kliënte is dit eens dat die trekkers uiters betroubaar en
maklik versienbaar is.
Die Truters boer in die Ogies-distrik en het buiten die Versatile,
twaalf ander geartikuleerde trekkers van twee ander vervaardigers
in hulle vloot. Volgens mnr Jaco Truter het die trekker hom in die
270 ure wat hy in gebruik is op die plaas tot op datum, uiters goed
van sy taak gekwyt. Hulle het die trekker ondermeer gebruik om te
ploeg met ‘n 10-skaar Wilton-ploeg, gerip met ‘n 19-tand DLB en
gedis met ‘n 10 m skotteleg.
Die feit dat die trekker goed geprys is en van bewese komponente
soos die Cummins-enjin en CAT-kragskuiftransmissie gebruik maak,
het die koopbesluit vir hulle maklik gemaak. Die kajuit, wat die
grootste op die mark is, is ook ‘n groot pluspunt.
“Ons ondervinding tot nou toe met die trekker is baie positief en
ons sal definitief in die toekoms weer na só ‘n trekker kyk”, sê
Truter.

ase IH recently hosted a commercial training camp for over
100 salespeople from the African and Middle East regions.
The two-week training session, which took place in April,
was held in Parys, South Africa.
The training camp provided extensive first-hand information on
the Case IH product range and its advantages and included com-
petitive comparisons. The training focused on products and sales
features specific to the respective markets and their customers.
Highlighted products were, among others, the Axial-Flow 140 and
240 series, the Magnum and Magnum Rowtrac, Puma, Ecolo Tiger
and True Tandem Turbo.
During the practical training, the participants had the opportunity to
get behind the wheel and test drive Case IH tractors and combines.
Participants were accompanied and assisted by Case IH commer-
cial training experts. They were shown the latest product advance-
ments and enhancements and encouraged to ask sales related
questions. The training camp was rounded off with a customer day
event with more than 400 visitors from Africa and the Middle East
attending.
The practical training took place on Mr Jaap van der Westhuizen’s
farm, a Case IH subdealer of Northmec who is also an important
customer in the region.
