WIKING sets the standard for other models: Fendt Katana 65 pulls out all the stops in terms of detail and functionality
WIKING has created functionality which matches the original perfectly as even the visible feed rollers on the Katana 65 for collecting the chaff are designed to rotate. If the 10-roller corn cutter is used, as it is during harvesting, the angled high-set sides are brought down to their full working width and arranged ready for operation � all the parts are fully movable.
The same applies to the discharge chute which swivels through 210 degrees, just like the original, enabling the simulation of any harvesting scenario � accompanied by WIKING tractors and self-loading forage boxes of course � while remaining perfectly true to scale. The process of collecting fodder can also be reproduced in 1:32 as WIKING�s Fendt Katana 65 has the benefit of a corresponding pick-up which is connected to the forage harvester in exactly the same way as the forage assembly. Once again, the assembly elements are fully movable. Because the 1:32 model has even more technical details to guarantee immense enjoyment, WIKING built the model in an ingenious way so that you can even access the rear engine compartment. Both the rear hood and also the side panels lift up, affording the collector a view of the replica 653 hp 16-litre V8 Mercedes-Benz engine which at least in the original permits acceleration up to 40 km/h.
And the cabin on the 1:32 model will also bring enjoyment for enthusiasts: the access steps can be moved back and the transparent access door can be opened. The side mirrors on the cab roof are also designed to move. By looking inside the cab, it is easy to appreciate the numerous premises that the designers took into account when creating the brand new Visio5 cab. The impressive workspace of the Katana driver is not only ergono-mically designed to provide com-fortable conditions for the user but also affords exceptional all-round visibility. Naturally, with this WIKING model details such as the seat and operator controls along with a multi-functional joystick are also included.
The Katana 65 presents itself as an intricately detailed die-cast model of outstanding quality. Hand-built using a combination of die-cast zinc parts and plastic accessories true to the original and providing authentic user features, WIKING is proud to present this high-quality unique and authentic model. |
