Versatile Manufacturing Co. was founded by Peter Pakosh in 1963 in Winnipeg. The company’s goal was to build simple machines that were durable and easy to maintain. Delivering its first tractors in 1966, Versatile became the first company in Canada to build large articulated tractors with four-drive wheels. The model 118, built in 1967, was large enough and powerful enough for large farms on the Prairies and was popular in Western Canada. The company was sold to Buhlet Industries in 2000.

Fonction

The tractor is a motorized vehicle used to pull and actuate other vehicles or implements that are not power-driven. Tractors are primarily designed for agricultural work: for cultivation, spraying, and harvesting operations. The first tractors, developed in the mid-nineteenth century, were steam-powered and were not very mobile: their main purpose was to power threshers and other equipment. The development of gas-engines in the late 19th century, and their integration into tractors, gave the machines more mobility and flexibility. Robert C. Williams writes in "Fordson, Farmall, and Poppin' Johnny: A history of the farm tractor and its impact on America" (1987) that "Of all the farm implements, the tractor has had the greatest impact on rural life...In one generation between 1920 and 1950, most farms in the United States changed from dependence on draft animals to dependence on mechanical power."

Technique

The tractor has an articulated frame which means that it can make turns close to the end of the field. The 118 model sold well, but the demand for higher horsepower tractors increased led to the design of the 145 model.
