LS MT342H

The MT342H delivers serious capability in a size that makes sense for Pacific Northwest hobby farms and small acreage properties. With 42 horsepower and hydrostatic transmission, this tractor handles everything from pasture mowing to loader work without the complexity that intimidates first-time tractor owners.

Power That Works The 42 HP engine provides enough muscle for demanding tasks while remaining fuel-efficient for everyday chores. The hydrostatic transmission eliminates clutching and shifting—critical when working on slopes or in tight spaces common to Northwest properties. Push the pedal to go forward, pull back to reverse. Your left knee stays comfortable through long sessions.

The premium suspension seat absorbs the bumps that fixed seats transfer directly to your spine. When you’re spending hours brush-hogging or grading, proper comfort keeps you productive instead of calling it quits early.

Built for Real Work The loader lifts 2,998 lbs—enough capacity for moving gravel, mulch, or hay without multiple trips. The telescopic link arms on the 3-point hitch make attaching implements straightforward, even for operators new to tractors. At 2,755 lbs lift capacity, you can handle serious implements like rotary cutters and box blades.

The foldable ROPS gives you storage flexibility under low-clearance buildings while maintaining safety during operation. Ground-level fueling eliminates climbing around with fuel cans—a practical detail that matters during busy seasons.
