Máquina tractora=truck

I assume that your text is talking about trucks (camiones) and not tow trucks (camiones que remolcan otros vehiculos).

Then for me in the context of your text, the "maquina tractora"is just the "truck".

Reference 1: tow truck (also called a wrecker, a breakdown truck, recovery truck or a breakdown lorry)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tow_truck


Reference 2: A truck or lorry is a motor vehicle, more specifically a commercial vehicle commonly used for transporting goods and materials. Some light trucks/lorries ...
