Zetor Major – the entry-level range from Brno since 2013: the MAJOR 60 to MAJOR HS 80, four-cylinder diesel, 45 to 56 kW, unladen weights of 3.2 to 4 tonnes
The Zetor Major is the simply equipped base range from the Czech maker in Brno, which has covered the lower end of the programme below the Proxima and Forterra since 2013. The number in the type designation gives the approximate power class in hp – Major 60 about 60 hp, Major 80 about 80 hp – the CL and HS suffixes mark equipment levels with different cab and transmission versions. Unlike Zetor's higher ranges, the Major dispenses with additional electronic systems and relies on a mechanically simple, easily serviced build.

The register lists here 5 versions with 45 to 55.6 kW from four-cylinders of 2,925 to 4,156 cm³, unladen weights from 3,200 to 4,000 kg, gross weights from 4,300 to 5,100 kg, lengths from 3,505 to 4,511 mm and widths from 1,955 to 2,241 mm.
The Major targets smaller operations, municipalities and contractors looking for a rugged, mechanically simple tractor without extensive electronics, and in this class competes against the base models from Case IH Farmall, New Holland and Eastern European rivals. Zetor builds the range at its home plant in Brno, where the maker has produced tractors since its founding in 1946 and ranks among Central Europe's most traditional brands.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
