  • Maximize versatility with front hitch options that fit a variety of applications
    7 Series with front hitch 7 Series with front hitch

    The 7R Tractors offer two front hitch options to best fit a variety of applications.

    Standard (non-ground-engaging) hitch option for applications including, but not limited to:

    • Front-mounted mowers, toppers, and snow blowers
    • Carrying front seed hoppers and plow packers
    • Carrying front ballast
    • Operating light-draft implements

    Premium (ground-engaging) hitch option for applications including, but not limited to:

    • Operating primary tillage equipment and standard blades 

    Premium hitches include a push bar and heavier lift arms:

    • Hitches with zero front auxiliary valves include one mid-mount valve.
    • Hitches with one front auxiliary valve include two mid-mount valves.
    • Hitches with two front auxiliary valves include three mid-mount valves.

    To ensure adequate hydraulic availability, up to two selective control valves (SCVs) can be included with a front hitch.

    Joystick control Joystick control
    Paddle pot SCV Paddle pot SCV

    Tractors equipped with a factory front hitch have the option of selecting a joystick control or paddle pot SCV controls. The joystick control is not compatible with the sixth rear electrohydraulic SCV because of the CommandARM™ controls space required for the front hitch joystick.

  • Increase productivity with Triple-Link Suspension Plus (TLS™ Plus)
    7R with TLS Plus 7R with TLS Plus

    The optional TLS Plus is a fully integrated, self-leveling front suspension system available on 7R Tractors equipped with the 1300 mechanical front-wheel drive (MFWD) axle. TLS Plus provides exclusive front suspension using a hydro-pneumatic self-leveling system to increase productivity and improve ride dramatically. TLS Plus provides more control over the front suspension of the tractor.

     

    TLS Plus increases both transport and field productivity with superior stability, ride, and comfort. Loader operators appreciate the enhanced performance when transporting bales or a full bucket of silage. In the field, the TLS Plus front suspension maintains ground-to-tire contact, enabling more power to the ground.

     

    CommandCenter screen CommandCenter screen

    In the Generation 4 CommandCenter™ Display, the operator can select maximum pressure to accommodate for the transfer of heavy loads with minimal front axle movement.

     

    The TLS Plus front axle is available with or without wet-disk front brakes. While TLS Plus is available on all 7R Tractors, it is a requirement for the following:

    • 31 mph/50K e23™ transmission
    • 31 mph/50K Infinitely Variable Transmission (IVT™)
  • ActiveSeat™ II seat provides a smoother ride
    ActiveSeat II and controls ActiveSeat II and controls

    The John Deere Active Seat II utilizes an electrical control system to control the vertical seat top movement. The "active" control system minimizes vertical seat top acceleration by sensing vertical tractor inputs and actively positioning the seat top to cancel those inputs. This results in a significantly smoother ride for the operator.

    The John Deere ActiveSeat II has many of the same features of the air suspension seat with the addition of a ride firmness switch. The ride firmness switch is located on the left-hand armrest and replaces the suspension shock-dampening seat attenuation lever on the front right-hand side of the seat controls.
      

    The ride firmness switch has three positions: plus, minus, and mid position. The three positions provide three different levels of seat performance:

    • The plus position provides the greatest degree of ride firmness. This position allows more of the tractor's inputs to be felt by the operator (slightly rougher ride).
    • The minus position provides the least degree of ride firmness, allowing minimal tractor inputs to reach the operator, resulting in maximum seat performance.
    • The mid position allows a balance between the plus (+) and minus (-) settings.
    ActiveSeat II left armrest controls ActiveSeat II left armrest controls

    The ActiveSeat II is also available as a heated and ventilated leather seat for increased comfort and easier cleaning. This is only available with the Ultimate Comfort and Convenience package. For tractor applications where operating speed is not limited by the implement, the ActiveSeat II can allow for faster field speeds and increased overall comfort and productivity.

     

    The leather seat includes massaging capability to alleviate operator fatigue.

     

    Right-hand seat swivel has been improved above current 8R Tractors to 25 degrees (versus 8 degrees) to the left and 40 degrees to the right in the Premium and Ultimate Comfort and Convenience packages.

     

    NOTE: The John Deere ActiveSeat II is not available on track tractors.

  • Get 360 degrees of coverage for maximum productivity with visibility packages
    Ultimate Visibility package Ultimate Visibility package

    Visibility is one of the most important attributes of the cab. While lighting is a large portion of that, features like windshield wipers, mirrors, sunshades, and cameras are also important to overall visibility. For this reason, John Deere offers three visibility packages on 7 and 8 Series Tractors:

    • Select 
    • Premium
    • Ultimate
    Lighting

    The lighting configurations are available to match various applications and ensure maximum around-the-clock productivity.

     

    Light housings are large, allowing for optimum total lumens and available light. The Select Visibility package uses 65-W halogen bulbs, whereas the Premium and Ultimate Visibility packages use light-emitting diode (LED) lights. The Premium and Ultimate Visibility packages replace Select Visibility package’s halogen lights with LED lights. The only lights that are not LED are the low-beam driving lights; they remain halogen. This allows each LED light to work at a lower temperature and no one light works harder than any other. The uniformity in LED coverage allows only one type of light output surrounding the tractor.

     

    The lighting pattern in the Ultimate Visibility package provides industry-leading performance in nighttime visibility. LED lights provide maximum brightness and a true color output for excellent field definition that is easy on the operator's eyes.

     

    The LED lights provide 40 percent greater coverage width and 10 percent more light coverage in the rear. LED lighting packages use 45 percent less amps than standard halogen lights and have an increased life expectancy over HID lights which leads to lower costs of ownership over the life of the tractor.

     

    The low- and high-beam driving/work lights are adjustable. Please refer to the electrical section in the Operator’s Manual for complete details on adjusting lights.

     

    NOTE: Lighting packages may vary depending on region.
