Bruder 02110: Claas Nectis 267 F Tractor, 1:16 Scale

Released in 2007, this model represents a standalone Bruder Claas tractor in the compact series, and despite its size, its still made in a true 1:16 scale. When sat next to a larger model in the range, it would looks like a baby. Its the small size that is the selling point, as Bruder are able to offer you a smaller tractor where space is limited, but still fully compatible.

Claas Nectis 267 F Tractor

Make it this small size Bruder Claas tractor where space saving is paramount, and we mean it has this model is half the size of the large series of tractors.

Still with all its original exterior decor, you'll be pleased to know it still nicely replicated with wing mirrors and a single step leading up to the cab door. Finished in bright green and white, and red tyre rims.

Steer the Wheels

Despite its small size we still get a Claas tractor with a steering function, meaning its possible to control the wheels via the steering rod, or control manually by hand.

Insert the steering rod through the cab roof hatch to grab hold of the steering wheel; reach into the cab to control the steering wheel, or simply turn the front-axle left or right.

Tow Hitch

Even compact tractors are powerful enough to tow the biggest, heaviest trailers, as the rear tow hitch on this Bruder 02110 Claas Nectis tractor will show.

To keep it real, you may want to stay with a small plough or tipping trailer, well leaving the big balers and equipment for the larger tractors to haul.

Counter-Weight

Fixed to the front mount is a detachable counter-weight, its used to balance the tractor by distributing the weight whenever there's a trailer in tow.

Imitation only as its light and hollow, but does help extend play. Removing the weight will reveal a front coupling, and its here you can connect front mountable implements.

Open Cab

Compact small Bruder tractor has a driver's cab so small, it can be quite restrictive when reaching in to explore the interior. But its still possible to control the steering wheel or insert a figure.

As the model is so small compared to similar, larger tractors the cab can appear quite small, this is normal and is still made in 1:16 scale, so don't worry about that.

Suspension

So what is a suspension on a Bruder tractor? Simple, its a way to operate the tractor over all terrain by limiting the roughness.

On this Bruder Claas tractor the suspension would come into effect every time a single wheel hits a bump, then the opposite wheel will stay firmly on the ground.
