6 things that you need to know about the new Massey Ferguson MF 7S Series

What is the MF 7S?

These new tractors have been equipped to a high specification as standard and come with a choice of transmissions, cab comfort, automation and control technology to suit all businesses and applications. The MF 7S introduces new levels of comfort, control, convenience and connectivity with the addition of new technology and features first seen on the award-winning MF 8S Series.

1. The options:

The new MF 7S Series is available in various specifications options which include Essential, Efficient, Exclusive and Panoramic specifications, depending on model, which are designed to provide a range of comfort and output-enhancing features to boost productivity and performance in the field and on the road.

3. Built to last

The new tractors in the MF 7S Series are built on a 2.88m long wheelbase which provides for optimum stability and traction. The powerful six-cylinder, 6.6-litre engines deliver high levels of concentrated power and torque, while robust engineering enables the tractors to carry and tow heavy loads.

4. Efficient transmissions

Massey Ferguson’s highly efficient and easy to use Dyna-VT ECO transmission offers seamless shifting and is available on all models. The Super Eco version of the Dyna-VT further improves efficiency by allowing the tractor to achieve 40km/h at just 1 450rpm.

The highly-regarded Dyna-VT continuously variable transmission now has a new automatic mode. This allows operators use the Multipad lever or foot pedal to alter forward speed, while it automatically sets the optimum engine speed according to the load and speed.

5. Can you even lift?

The new 7S range has been optimised for lifting and thus, the Series features an excellent power to weight ratio and an impressive 44.5t Gross Combination Weight. Three-point linkage lift capacities of 9,600kg on the rear and 4,000kg up front  and up to 14t Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) make them ideally suited to operating output boosting front- and rear combinations.

6. Comfort has been improved

MF 7S operators now benefit from significant cab improvements which have been added to provide more comfort and better control. First introduced on the Tractor of the Year award-winning MF 8S tractors, some of these enhancements include a new armrest, Multipad controller and enhanced connectivity. Thanks to a new air conditioning system the cab is now up to 4C° cooler than before and features a completely new, high quality trim with, for Exclusive and Efficient versions, a chrome steering wheel and black dashboard.

All controls are easy to reach, ad have been arranged in a convenient and logical layout. Further improving comfort is a choice of optional mechanical or active mechanical cab suspension, as well as the suspended front axle option.

Further enhancements have been made to the Datatronic 5 terminal which has a much brighter and clearer touch-screen to reduce glare. Higher definition colours and a black background, along with new shortcuts on the homepage also make it easy to use.
