FRONT AXLE TLS

The 7J Tractors can be equipped with the optional front
Triple Link Suspension (TLS) axle, which has this exclusive
suspension system. This is an innovative system, which provides
productivity gains of up to 8%, in comparison with a rigid
axle. It consists of hydro-pneumatic cylinders with nitrogen
accumulators and three mounting points, that significantly
increase the tractor’s traction capacity.

HOW 7J TRACTORS ARE DIFFERENT

• The Factory-installed Implement Management System (IMS)
makes it possible to manage up to five commands from the
tractor with a simple configuration

- Gear shifting that enables the operator to focus

on operating the equipment well, thus optimizing
performance
- Differential lock
- Front traction
- Hydraulic lift
- Power Take Off (PTO)

• Front axle with Triple Link Suspension (TLS)

• Optional active seating suspension
• Premium light package: LED working lights

FARM MANAGEMENT
SOLUTIONS

By sing Precision Farming equipment, it is

possible to achieve greater operating efficiency
by reducing operating overlap and failures,
optimizing land use and reducing the costs
of fuel and consumables. 7J Tractors leave
the factory AutoTrac ready, which assists the
operator in driving the tractor during farming
operations, enabling the operator to manage
other tasks. On request, 7J tractors can be
equipped with the StarFire™ 6000 receiver, with
the option of SF3 or TRK signals. NEW SF6000 RECEIVER GS3 DISPLAY

at the same time enabling various corrections.

JDLINK™
All of the 7J series tractors areJDLink™ Main functions
capable MTG hardware not included. OPTIMIZATION OF MACHINE DATA
On request, 7J Series Tractors can have
the JDLink™ installed in the factory. This
is a tool that enables the machine to
be monitored remotely, by computer,
cellphone and/or tablet.

COMMANDVIEW™ CAB
7J Series Tractors offers the best in class operators cab.
The spacious cab is comfortable, functional, safe and
ergonomically designed environment for the operator,
ensuring higher productivity during the workday.

Some features of the CommandView™ cab:

• The right hand display column displays key information to

the operator.

others.

COMMANDCENTER™
The CommandCenter™ controls various tractor systems,
enabling the operator to:

• configure and monitor the Hydraulic Lifting System;

• set the maximum rpm in the FieldCruise™ system;
• program the Implement Management System (IMS), which
enables the tractor to be maneuvered at the touch of a
button;
• monitor speed, ha/h, l/h, l/ha, range, PTO speed and other
data.

POWRQUAD™ OR AUTOQUAD™ TRANSMISSION
The 7J Series models are standard fitted with PowrQuad™ Plus transmission, with 16 forward and 16 reverse
speeds. This transmission allows gears to be changed without using the clutch and without interrupting
power to the wheels, providing greater efficiency during operation.
The ranges and gears are selected using a single lever, which is easy and
practical. In addition, the transmission has the Speed Matching™ system,
which automatically locates the best gear when the operator changes the
range, avoiding abrupt changes in speed and ensuring smooth movement.
There is the option of fitting the AutoQuad™ transmission, which has all of The reverser, on the left

the clutch, enabling agile
maneuvering.
MODULAR CHASSIS
The 7J Series Tractors are mounted on a modular chassis, which absorbs torsion forces and allows
the engine and the cabin to be mounted on rubber shock absorbers, providing excellent isolation
from vibrations and noise. In addition, the chassis allows easy access to several components, making
maintenance simpler and quicker.

JOHN DEERE ENGINE

The John Deere 7J series Engines have been designed exclusively for agricultural
applications. The John Deere PowerTech™ engine uses innovative technology to
run without the need of additional fluids. The torque curve has been designed to
give the tractor flexibility and allow rpm to recover quickly under increasing load.
The three models have an intercooler turbocharger, electronic accelerator and a
cylinder head with four valves per cylinder.
The Turbo charger fitted with a Waste-Gate valve provides better performance,
at both high and low rpm
Injection System: High Pressure Common Rail Electronic Injection System
ensures reliability, durability and efficiency.

ACTIVE SEAT™ TLS FRONT AXLE

(TRIPLE LINK SUSPENSION)
The TLS axle is optional to the standard and 3 meter wide MFWD
axles. This innovative front axle is suspended by use of hydraulic
cylinders. This new front axle provides an increase of 8% in
productivity because it prevents lurching, thus increasing the
capacity to transfer power to the ground, while also increasing
operator comfort.

Combined with air suspension

and electro-hydraulic technology,
ActiveSeat™ reduces vertical seat LIGHTING PACKAGES

safety during operations. front and rear LED lights, provide a significant increase in lighting
coverage and the durability of the lamps and the components of
the electrical system. The versatility of lighting configurations
can meet the most demanding applications and ensure maximum
productivity. Lighting packages offered will ensure that you can
benefit by using the extended working windows, with higher
productivity and precision.

 FIELDCRUISE™ SYSTEM
FieldCruise™ is a system which aid and improve fuel economy in operations that do
not demand maximum engine power. This feature allows for increased efficiency
and an optimal powered tractor in lighter operations, providing more flexibility.
• FieldCruise™ makes it possible to limit engine rpm in operations that
do not require full power.
• It provides great fuel savings and increases engine durability.
• The operator can set the engine rpm limit for desired application.
• It is easy to engage and disengage.
7J SERIES SUGARCANE CONFIGURED TRACTOR
John Deere was the first company to provide a reliable solution in order to avoid crushing sugarcane
stalks spaced at 1.4 and 1.5 m. The 3 meter axle option enables wheel-to-wheel spacing of 2.8 or 3 m,
so that the tractor can avoid trampling the stalks, allowing maximum regrowth and producing better
yield results. 7J Series Tractors can therefore be configured as sugarcane tractors by selection the 3
meter front axle option. This option does not stop the tractors from doing heavy work, such as tillage or
planting, as the rear wheel spacing can simply be changed to 2.6 m. In addition to the front axle with 3
meter wheel-to-wheel spacing, other characteristics complement the John Deer Sugarcane Tractors.
