6 SERIES

PTO Having a choice of different PTO speeds contributes significantly to increasing the versatility of a tractor. 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. HYDRAVLICS The hydraulic system uses an 83 l/min fixed displacement pump to feed the distributors and lift, and a 42 l/min pump dedicated to the hydrostatic steering system, for smooth and effortless steering even when other hydraulic utilities are operating simultaneously, and in critical operating conditions with the engine at idle speed. 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.
