Features
Chassis and Exterior
Built on a robust steel frame, the 1026R has a wheelbase of 57 inches and a narrow 47-inch width, offering maneuverability in tight spaces and stability for loader or backhoe work. The MFWD with locking differential ensures traction on uneven or wet terrain, paired with R4 industrial tires (typically 18×8.5-10 front, 26×12-12 rear) for lawn-friendly durability. The H120 front-end loader includes a 49-inch quick-attach bucket, 703 lb lift capacity to pivot pin, 71-inch lift height, and 1,724 lb breakout force, controlled by a joystick for precise material handling (e.g., mulch, gravel). The 54-inch AutoConnect mid-mount mower deck (54D model) features side-discharge, 1-4 inch cutting height, and drive-over attachment for easy removal, with 3 blades and a 68.5-inch overall width. The 260 backhoe offers an 8-inch, 12-inch, or 16-inch bucket (specific size not provided), 6.3 ft dig depth, 4.3 ft load height, and mid-mower compatibility, with a durable subframe and external cylinders for easy maintenance. The Category 1 3-point hitch supports implements like tillers (930 lb lift capacity at 24 inches behind pin), and the 540 rear PTO powers attachments like rotary cutters. Folding ROPS, fender-mounted work lights, and a brush guard enhance safety and visibility, with pristine paint reflecting indoor storage.
Interior Comfort
The open operator station with folding ROPS features a suspension seat with armrests, power steering, tilt steering, cruise control, and a padded floor mat for comfort during long tasks. The Twin Touch hydrostatic pedals provide intuitive speed and direction control, ideal for loader or mowing work. The digital dashboard displays hours, fuel, and diagnostics, with cup holder, toolbox, and grab handles adding practicality. Large visibility angles and a low noise level (est. 85 dB) reduce fatigue, and the clean, like-new condition reflects careful use.
Operational Capabilities
The Yanmar 3TNV76 engine delivers 25.2 HP and approximately 41 ft-lb torque, paired with a 2-range hydrostatic transmission for seamless speed control (0-9 MPH), perfect for frequent direction changes. The MFWD with locking differential ensures grip, and the 10.8 GPM hydraulic flow supports responsive loader and backhoe performance. The H120 loader handles up to 703 lbs for tasks like moving soil, while the 54-inch mower ensures efficient lawn maintenance with AutoConnect ease. The 260 backhoe with 1,530 lb bucket breakout force excels in trenching or landscaping, and the 3-point hitch and PTO power attachments like augers or snow blowers. With 250 hours (averaging ~20 hours/year), this tractor is barely broken in, offering excellent mechanical condition with no leaks or issues, supported by John Deere’s renowned reliability.
