Looking around at various sites that have Foton's tractors. Seems 82HP is the largest they make. They do state on a couple sites there is a 90HP but I couldn't find any info on it.

Thanks for the link.. that's just about what i was looking for.

Hmm.. 800 looks like a pretty decent tractor.. i honestly was expecting a much lower 'grade' of machine...

Still... even witht he shiny fiberglass ( plastic? ) hood.. i don't see how someone could mistake it for a boxy NH thousand series... as was sugested in another post... It just looks 'too' different.. not counting the 4wd/2wd issue.. just the design.. etc.

That is the steel hood. the fiberglass is the more rounded looking one in the other pictues. Foton is primarily an automobile manufactuer and as such has some excellent sheet metal tooling availalbe. some of the smoothest I have seen out of china.

Soundguy,
Tommy at Affordable just got a shipment of smaller (40hp) ones in but they are beautiful. I went to this link FOTON PICTURES that showed some of the workmanship...fit and finish. They are quite nice indeed.
Question, that Blue tractor in your avatar, is that a Foton or a NH?

Jinma & 3RRL.. The pic in my avatar is a NH 7610s.

The reason i posted the message ( to get the pic of a foton ) was because someone in another thread said that my tractor was a a blue foton with NH decals. I wanted to see some pics for comparison. As it turns out.. I can't see how someone would have made that connection.. they are 2 completely different looking tractors... fenders and op platform are 100% different.. Nose is different.. headlamp arangement is different.

I've been considering changing my avatar to my restored 1975 ford 5000.. it is actually more stylish than my 7610s..

Foton is a great tractor. Although earlier models were prone to some small problems the factory was more than willing to work things out.

We are moving on to the 3rd shipment of Foton tractors and couldn't be happier. 5 of them have been sold for commercial use and are holding up far better than anticipated from a chinese tractor. They are reliable, simple and powerful for their size.
