Series 7 in Stage V features some elements of continuity with Stage IV starting with the typical cast-iron chassis that houses the generous and fuel-efficient engine. The chassis increases the strength of the transmission, ensures a lower level of vibration, improves traction, increases manoeuvrability and eliminates the need for additional front equipment chassis. An engine brake pedal, the Engine Brake System, is available which, using the electronic motorised throttle valve of the turbocharger, allows the operator to increase the braking torque by activating the engine brake in combination with the normal tractor brakes. The Viscotronic clutch is controlled by the engine control module for precise fan speed modulation. The solution adopted guarantees better cooling performance, precise fan control, less power loss and good noise reduction.

The V-Shift continuously variable transmission gives the Stage V Serie 7 all the flexibility required to handle all kinds of tasks and field conditions. Combining a powerful engine and a V-Shift four-stage continuously variable transmission with four planetary gear trains and oil-cooled clutches, the Serie 7 Stage V delivers responsive performance making work easier and safer. The V-Shift transmission offers four speed ranges with advance speeds from 40 m/h to 50 km/h ensuring maximum productivity in any application. The V-Shift transmission with its four-stage technology sets a new benchmark in continuously variable transmissions. Using a four-stage instead of the usual two-stage CVT transmission offers real benefits to farmers and agricultural contractors looking for maximum productivity in any application. The V-Shift transmission features four operating modes:

1. Auto Mode - The electronic unit controls the engine rpm and trans[1]mission ratio, based on the parameters set on the potentiometer, in order to achieve the required speed.
2. Manual Mode - The operator sets the engine speed with the hand throttle. The electronic unit controls the transmission ratio in order to achieve the required speed.
3. PTO Mode - The operator sets the engine speed with the hand throttle. The electronic unit controls the transmission ratio in order to achieve the required speed. In this mode, priority is given to the PTO speed.
4. Cruise Mode - The operator selects the tractor travel speed, which remains constant.

The Smart Cab is a new concept workspace. Bright, quiet and comfortable, this new cab is designed to surprise. Inside the Smart Cab, work turns into a comfortable experience that maximises efficiency. Because high performance is the result of attention to every detail.
With its four-post design, the Smart Cab offers 14 percent more glass area. The cab features an electrohydraulic suspension that absorbs shocks and vibrations. The interior is wider; the steering wheel and the dashboard are adjustable in depth and inclination; the air-suspended, ventilated swivel seat is equipped with an adjustable headrest and an integral armrest. The DSM Plus system, with its 12-inch touch screen display and 12-inch digital dashboard, makes work easier and more productive. Smart Cab: the more you live it, the more you’ll be surprised.

The Series 7 V-Shift has a 123 l/min closed centre hydraulic circuit with a dedicated 44 l/m steering pump. A 160 l/m Ultra Flow pump is available as an optional extra. Another feature of the system is the full configurability of the electro-hydraulic control valves. The layout of the control panel has been kept very simple and streamlined, ensuring considerable ease of use. New menus have been added for an increasingly professional user experience.
