Zetor tractors are manufactured in the Czech Republic. Since 1945 the company has produced over 1.1 million agricultural tractors that are now sold in 80 countries, including the United States. The company was an early adopter of four wheel drive and mechanical front wheel drive systems, and one of the earliest companies to build heated and air conditioned cabs on their tractors for operator comfort. Especially innovative is the Zetor hydraulics system, "Zetormatic", which uses a hydraulic cylinder to transfer most of the weight of towed implements, such as plows, to the rear axle of the tractor at the hitch. This gives greater control over plow depth, especially in hilly terrain, and greatly reduces fuel consumption. To deal with larger, wider implement sizes in the 1960s, the system was updated to "Zetormatic II", a great system that is still in use today.
