The wheelbase is 2,651mm for the 4-cylinder, offering increased stability during field and front loader operations. The wheelbase of the 6-cylinder version is 2,760 mm. Common to both models is a maximum allowed weight of 11,500 Kg and a maximum rear wheel of 710/60R38, which offers greater stability and comfort during transport, less soil compaction in field operations. |
Suspended cab
Attention to operator comfort is confirmed as best in class for both field and road driving, thanks to the optional independent front axle suspension system. There are also two cab suspension options: mechanical or semi-active electronically controlled. The Data Screen Management (12″ touch screen) benefits from a new menu and allows faster and more efficient operation thanks to the storage of activities with programmable buttons (MyFunctions) for customising tractor controls. Satellite guidance and the ISOBUS system are fully integrated which, through the simple use of the DSM, allow the operator to manage implements without having to use other monitors in the cab. |
New FTP NEF 45 and FTP NEF 67
The tractors are equipped with new FTP NEF 45, 16-valve, 4.5-litre 4-cylinder engines and FTP NEF 67, 24-valve, 6.7-litre 6-cylinder engines with Turbo Intercooler and Common Rail electronic injection. These are two models (7-165 and 7-175) with 4-cylinder, 165 and 175 Hp engines thanks to the Dual Power system and two other models (7-170 and 7-180) with 6-cylinder, 175 Hp engines. The standard fitted Cooling Matrix system facilitating access to the underbonnet radiators for ease of cleaning, is also worthy of mention. |
Two transmissions available
There are two transmissions available: V-Drive (for the higher powers) and Robo-Six (for all four powers in the range). V-Shift, with 4-stage continuously variable transmission, guarantees top-of-the-range response. The speed ranges from a minimum of 0.04 km/h to a maximum of 50 km/h. The Robo-Six transmission, on the other hand, features 6 Powershift gears under load, 5 robotised ranges and electro-hydraulic reverse shuttle on the steering wheel. The total gears are 30 Forward + 15 Reverse, which become, with the Creeper, 54 Forward + 27 Reverse. The Stop & Action system integrates the De-Clutch into the brake pedal, allowing the tractor to be stopped without depressing the clutch for easier driving on the road. Combination use of the Stop & Action and APS (Auto Powershift) systems allows the Robo-Six transmission to be driven in a similar way as the continuously variable transmission version. |
The closed-centre hydraulic system The closed-centre hydraulic system with 123 l/min pump (a larger 160 l/min pump is available as an option) can handle up to 8 spool valves. The electronic rear hitch provides a maximum lifting capacity of 9,300 kg |
