The tractor shown is in normal military configuration. Notice the wet material at the bottom of the photo and the heavy dust at the top. The tractors and bowls are built very heavy to meet the demands as they were designed for war time. These tractors and scrapers were built for the military at a time when money was not a problem and they certainly were not trying to compete with the regular domestic market where fancy paint , CD players and radios and trying to make a profit for the bottom line was important. Although older, many contractors have found that in certain conditions these tractors will still outperform a modern-day piece of equipment. | |
 |
We have been very successful in working 2 or 3 of the Clark 290Ms together especially in very hard soil or where wanting to load with a big cut in a very short area. By teaming up and pushing each other the tractors save the purchase of a big push tractor as needed in most hard materials with open bowl scrapers. Our operator usually takes a 1 -3 inch cut and keeps moving. | |
 |
The return trip with a top speed of 36 mph in good conditions is very important to make every second count this day in time with the high cost of fuel and operator expense. | |
 |
Spreading the material is just as important as loading it. The Clark 290 M will allow you to spread the material with the bowl, drag and even push with the front dozer blade. | |
