transmission
The ideal transmission.
A perfect, innovative transmission
The 6 Series offers pioneering efficiency and technology: models with
The 6 Series also delivers outstanding performance when equipped with a six speed mechanical ZF gearbox, which offers four Powershift ranges in each gear, a supercreeper gear as standard and an electrohydraulic power shuttle, for a total of 40 intelligently spaced forward and reverse speeds with no inefficient overlapping between adjacent ratios. The electrohydraulic reverse shuttle with adjustable responsiveness lets the driver invert the direction of drive even when on the move and on gradients at speeds up to 12 Km/h. This maximises the manoeuvrability of the 6 Series, making headland turns quicker and easier. The Automatic Powershift, fitted as standard on “P” variants and available as an option for others, turns the transmission into a fully automatic system, selecting the most appropriate of the four Powershift ratios available for each range in relation to engine load and speed with no input from the driver: the quick responsive times of this system are a genuine advantage when frequent direction changes are necessary. |

PTO
A comprehensive choice of PTO solutions
Having a choice of different PTO speeds contributes significantly to
The 6 Series Agrotron PS offers all four standardised PTO speed modes - specifically the two normalised speeds 540 and 1000 rpm, plus ECO modes for both.
All modes are selected and engaged electrohydraulically with an automatic load sensing function to ensure that the implement connected is always started progressively and smoothly.
The PTO is simple and rational to operate, with electrohydraulic controls and an LCD screen displaying the effective PTO speed, allowing the driver to use any implement in the ideal operating conditions.
An automatic PTO activation function is also available, to engage or disengage the PTO in relation to the position of the implement hitched to the rear 3-point linkage.
Remote PTO controls on the rear mudguards are included as standard, while a front lift with a 1000 rpm PTO (also available as ECO variant) is offered as an optional accessory. |

Hydraulic System
Complete hydraulics for tackling any job.
The hydraulic system uses an 83 l/min fixed displacement pump to
The base configuration of the system includes a pair of mechanically controlled dual action distributors (or, as an option, four), and may be extended with the addition of a third electronically controlled distributor and two more front distributors. “P” versions come with four, dual action electronically controlled distributors (or, as an option, up to seven).
All the distributors may be locked if needed and switched between single and dual action mode, even with the lift in use.
To extend the capabilities of the basic hydraulic system, the fixed displacement pump may be replaced with a 120 l/min load sensing unit. The load sensing function instantaneously adjusts hydraulic power delivery in response to the actual demand of the individual implements, reducing energy losses and fuel consumption while increasing the durability of the hydraulic components.
All 6 Series models are equipped with “push-pull” hydraulic connectors, for trouble-free connection of hydraulic lines even when pressurised.
The Power-Beyond connection is extremely useful when operating implements with very high hydraulic flow demands. By bypassing the entire flow of pressurised oil delivered from the hydraulic pump to one or more hydraulic motors on the implement, the oil passes through a shorter and less complex route, maximising hydraulic efficiency and significantly reducing fuel consumption.
The rear lift with EHR electronic control has a lift capacity of 6000 kg, which may be increased to 9200 kg with the addition of optional hydraulic rams, while the optional front lift has a maximum capacity of 3800 kg. The EHR electronic control system implements draft force and position control in mixed or floating mode, as well as a number of other integrated functions such as quick soil engagement, implement oscillation damping, position lock, implement height and lift limiting and drop speed limiting. The optional radar system adds slippage control functionality.

Brakes
Safety is essential.
Dual traction and the front and rear differential locks are engaged automatically for maximised efficacy and to handle any situation with ease: in relation to speed and steering angle, the system engages or disengages dual traction and the differential locks to maximise traction for ploughing and ensure sure-footed, safe manoeuvrability when driving on the road.
To take safety a step further, these tractors may be equipped with optional wet disc brakes on the front axle (for car-like braking action without requiring automatic dual traction engagement) and the Power-Brake system, for extraordinary stopping power.
And for manoeuvring and hitching implements in total safety, 6 Series tractors may be fitted with a rear camera which activates automatically when reverse is selected. |

Cab
There really is such a thing as the ideal cab. S-Class 2
The new “S-Class 2” cab is designed from the outset to offer
Anti-slip zinc plated steps with safety edges facilitate access; while integrated courtesy lights activated automatically when the door is opened ensure safety even at night.
The seat is equipped with self-adjusting air sprung suspension as standard, while active seat suspension is available as an option.
The cab is roomy and airy, offering an incredible 320 degrees of visibility with generous all-round windows and an opening glazed roof panel with sun screen.
A powerful climate control system with fourteen adjustable vents maintains the perfect environment inside the cab in all conditions, while special filters (active carbon filters available as an option) ensure the quality of the air.
The lighting system is just as impressive: with fifteen work lights (six at the front and nine at the rear) ensuring superlative visibility even when working in total darkness.
For even greater luxury, a deluxe variant of the S-Class 2 cab is available as an option, with mechanical or air-sprung suspension, electronic climate control and heated external rear view mirrors.
The instrumentation of the 6 Series includes the Comfor-tip system and the iMonitor multimedia interface, which lets the driver control the main tractor functions and systems (lift, PTO, distributors, engine, transmission, ASM, cab suspension), provides performance information (fuel consumption, productivity, processed terrain area), includes ISOBUS functionality for connection to compatible implements, and even features an mp3 media player and Bluetooth capability.
The ISOBUS 11783 standard interface offers immediate plug and play usability, without installing cumbersome additional monitors.
This system can also function with all compatible implements with a simple plug-in connection and a single terminal. |
