COUNTRY: The super-compact professional
Groundcare
Continuing with its research and innovation strategy, with a range of products in
continual evolution, Antonio Carraro is ready to face the challenges of the future
with a positive and mature ethos following as ever a path leading in a different
direction.
This has led to the development of Groundcare, a department dedicated to the
research, development and commercialisation of machines for civil maintenance
in the widest sense of the word: looking after private and public green areas,
roadways, cleaning urban areas, building sites, garden maintenance, nurseries,
and the maintenance of sports grounds.
The Country 3700 and 4400 represent the large wheel super-compact
tractors geared towards professional green area maintenance, building
yards, earth moving, intensive cultivation. The Country tractors offer
first class operative comfort thanks to its spacious and ergonomic drive
position with its comfortable moulded seat.
The classical Antonio Carraro full chassis with oscillation ACTIO is
synonymous with an equal weight distribution, maximum grip, minimum
ground compaction, first class operative comfort, a low centre of
gravity and finally fantastic versatility. The four wheel drive, along with
ACTIO, guarantee maximum comfort and operative safety in that they
grant constant traction and grip.
The vehicle’s compact dimensions guarantee accurate narrow steering.
The two engines, both with an environmentally reliable 4 stroke diesel
engine are matched to 12 speed gearbox with 12 forward and 8 reverse
speeds.
The solidity and manufacturing quality of the Country model allows this
tractor to be used for the most complex of activities, on extremely steep
slopes, in all climates right through the year, thus guaranteeing a rapid
return on investment.

EXG: Warranty extension
up to 4 years
Fruit of the high standards acquired in manufacturing quality,
the Country tractors enjoy many advantages of the extended
warranty that Antonio Carraro spa offers several models from its
vast range. The “EXG” warranty confirms the importance of the
investments undertaken by the company in recent years which has
focused on developing the exceptional reliability of its products.
The Country 3700 and 4400 are included in the “EXG” programme.
By adhering to the “EXG” programme the purchaser has the
opportunity to extend the warranty of his tractor from the standard
2 years up to a total of 4 years. At the moment of the tractor’s
purchase or during the first 12 months after the delivery date, the
customer has the opportunity to ask their dealer for an extension of
the warranty and can choose between the following two options:
EXG1 (24+12 months) or EXG2 (24+24 months), i.e. 4 years.
The “EXG” package is reliant on compulsory servicing that must be
strictly followed.
DESIGN:
Elegance and comfort
The design of the Country, in line with the entire range of Antonio
Carraro super-compact tractors, is characterised by an aggressive
yet elegant design in the company’s classic colours, red and
silver. The bodywork is solid and robust thanks to its cast iron
front bumpers and sheet metal mudguards. Operative comfort is
guaranteed by the ample functional drive position fitted with a
comfortable adjustable sprung seat.
The drive position is central and anti-rolling because it
is situated at the oscillation point of the ACTIO chassis and
therefore shaking is minimised. From the drive position the
operator has excellent vision over the ground and equipment, with
easy to use levers and commands positioned ergonomically and
logically. The “check panel” on the dashboard constantly shows
the tractors operative functions. The electric system is fitted with
a unipolar plug for the revolving light.
Thanks to the collapsible roll bar, the Country offers exceptional
usage above all in narrow spaces.
The bigger hydraulic system grants the vehicle with fantastic
agility and manoeuvrability.

Full Chassis with Oscillation ACTIO:
perfect balance between agility and grip
The ACTIO system consists of a powerful, steel section which forms an integral part of the axle,
which houses both a front and rear transmission and has an oscillating joint which allows for
longitudinal oscillation of a good 15 degrees.
Thanks to the ACTIO system, the tractor acts as a single unit, made up of two parts with the same mass and
dimension which oscillate independently of each other following the contours and different gradients of the
terrain, thereby maintaining constant stability and perfect grip.
Its overhanging engine is positioned on the fore-carriage: this allows the total weight of the tractor to be redistributed
- 60% of its weight on the front axle and 40% on the rear one. Ideal balance that becomes almost perfect when
rear equipment is fitted: 50% on the front and 50% on the rear. Furthermore the Country tractors, despite their
low centre of gravity, have excellent ground clearance rendering movement over large bumps safe and easy.
50% 50%
Furthermore, the ACTIO system provides for the use of four wheel drive which means that the engine is able
to ground all of its power thus obtaining constant contact with the ground. The wheels compatible with the Country
tractors allow the choice from a vast range of diameters and with different tyre profiles in order to satisfy all
requirements and to create optimum configuration according to the type of ground and usage.
ADVANTAGES OF THE ACTIO SYSTEM:
• Better distribution of weight = maximum grip, less wear and tear on tyres.
• Central, lower drive position = the prolonged use of the tractor is less stressful with respect to more
traditional tractors; greater protection for the operator.
• Transmission inside the chassis = good ground clearance, lower centre of gravity; maximum stability and
ground grip even with transversal movement on steep slopes.
• Doubling of the total mass of the tractor and ample lateral oscillation = the two parts of the tractor
counterbalance each other thereby maintaining maximum adherence of the tyres to the ground.
• 4 wheel drive = better traction and grip.
Active and passive safety:
A double guarantee
The Country models have a low centre of gravity and wide central oscillation of the ACTIO chassis which ensures that the wheels are firmly planted
on the ground, or in other words that there is maximum stability and grip. All of the accident prevention devices, from the safety starting device, to the
internal silencer, from the PTO protection and the all of the rotating devices have been carefully tested in full accordance with EEC legislation.
The operator’s collapsible roll-bar, positioned horizontally protects the bonnet from accidental knocks.
Furthermore the mechanically controlled front and rear differential lock allows the vehicle to move easily over uneven ground. The disengagement
of the front axel improves work on more delicate ground. The mechanically controlled rear brakes guarantee gradual and accurate braking even in
confined spaces. The homologated road speed is 30 Km/h (18,64 Miles/h).
ADVANTAGES
• Low centre of gravity = maximum stability
• Curved design and roll bar = protected drive position
• Differential locks on all four wheels = elevated level of active safety

Ergonomics and comfort:
– effort + productivity
Antonio Carraro research into comfort and ergonomics has led to extremely high standards even for the most
compact models allowing its driver to cope with hours of work every day without experiencing stress and still
obtaining great results.
Protective, comfortable and accessible, the drive position offers a comfortable space with all of its controls in
a logical sequence (control lights, tachometer, safety starter switch), as well as having its pedals and levers within
easy reach. Furthermore visibility of the front of the tractor and its control board is optimal. The sprung moulded
seat can be adjusted to give each operator the opportunity to personalise its setting, therefore rendering it as
comfortable as possible.
The drive platform is positioned centrally between the axels, in the best position to obtain maximum stability even
when coping with obstacles or when working on difficult or sloping ground.

Steering wheels:
comfort and manageability
A short wheelbase and homokinetic joints on the axels provide the Country tractors with
excellent steering thanks to which the operator is always at ease even in confined spaces.
The servo-assisted steering offers the operator an extremely comfortable drive system.
The hydroguide is fitted with a special distributor valve that guarantees optimal supply
of oil to the steering, thus avoiding any interference with possible ancillary hydraulic
equipment.
The steering brakes operate independently on the two rear wheels, providing the vehicle
with a narrow turning circle. The double pedals guarantee the operator rapid reaction at
all times.
The great manageability of the Country optimises work times and reduces the effort
required by the operator who is able to drive his tractor without difficulty, with maximum
control and active safety.
ADVANTAGES
• Reduced turning circle = the tractor can practically turn around on itself.
• Short wheelbase = manoeuvrability is further improved upon even in confined spaces.
• Integral traction = maximum grip even during manoeuvres in difficult situations.
• ACTO Full chassis with oscillation = perfect grip on bends even on uneven ground.
Machine + equipment:
A perfect combination
The Country’s high capacity hydraulic power lift has a 3 point hitch
(Cat.1) is fitted with position control and a double effect distributor
with floating position as standard, as an optional extra it can be fitted
with a draft position control. Also on request, the vehicles can be fitted
with rear positional working lights and ballasts.
The standard independent type PTO is set at 540 rpm and
synchronised with all the speeds of the gearbox.
The gradual engagement and optimal power yield render the task easier
and more accurate.
The ancillary hydraulic system with double effect distributors
and floating position allows the vehicle to work with hydraulically
manoeuvrable equipment.
Even with large and complicated equipment, the Country remains
perfectly balanced and stable, unaffected by skidding and tipping, thanks
to the ACTIO chassis, its large wheels and robust axel.
The vast range of tyres grant optimal settings and work speeds.

Engines: Reliability and respect for the environment
The Country 3700 and the Country 4400 have 4 stroke diesel engines
with 2 and 3 cylinders respectively and powers of 25 hp (air cooling)
and 38 hp (water cooling). The large fuel tank guarantees good lengthy
autonomy.
Each engine has been designed to reach perfect harmony with the
dimensions, mechanics and specific characteristics of each model in terms
of reliability and with maximum respect for the environment. Emissions
are in line with the European legislation 97/68/2004/26/CE.
Special attention to their quietness has been paid and the company has
opted for bodywork fitted with sound absorbent material and antivibration
rubber supports inside the engine compartment in order to reduce
oscillation and noise to the bare minimum.
Engine performance is further enhanced by the special design solutions of
the bodywork. The shaped front grille and the side screens, for example,
guarantee ideal thermal exchange even in extreme weather conditions
with high temperatures. The complete vertical opening of the bonnet
guarantees complete and easy access to the engine compartment to
allow general maintenance to be carried out.
