Features

IMPROVED SELECTION CONTROL VALVE (SCV) CONFIGURATIONS: Beginning with model year 2024, 7, 8 and 9 Series tractors will feature a new SCV stack to improve performance and aftermarket serviceability. The change will further enable customers to fine-tune hydraulic flow rates and more precisely adjust the flow. This change will make it easier and more affordable to customize an SCV stack by switching coupler sizes because previously it would’ve been done by changing an entire SCV slice.
7 AND 8 SERIES VISIBILITY PACKAGES LET YOU RUN WITH CONFIDENCE, DAWN UNTIL DUSK: Visibility is more than just lighting. It’s mirrors where you need them, shades for the blinding late-fall and early-spring sun, wipers to help keep all the glass clear, and integrated camera capability. The 7 and 8 Series Tractors let you choose the visibility package that best suits your needs – Select, Premium, or Ultimate with 360-degree light-emitting diode (LED) lighting –so you and your operators can run with all-conditions confidence.
INCREASE RIDE COMFORT DURING ALL SEASONS WITH 8R SUSPENSION OPTIONS: 8R Tractors offer a variety of suspension options to fit your specific field conditions or application. There are three options to choose from on 8R Tractors. An air seat with fixed cab offers a great balance of field and road comfort in an economical package. An adjustable cab suspension with an air seat reduces high-frequency vibrations typically associated with road transport and features three levels of firmness that can be easily adjusted on the fly. The ActiveSeat™ II equipment is typically chosen for field applications to reduce vertical movement and operator fatigue.
MATCH DEMANDING APPLICATIONS WITH HYDRAULIC OPTIONS: All 8 Series Tractors come standard with an 85-cc (5.2-cu in.) hydraulic pump. This pump provides up to 227.1 L/min (60 gpm) hydraulic flow. A dual pump option featuring 85-cc and 35-cc (5.2-cu in. and 2.1-cu in.) displacement hydraulic pumps is available for all 8R and 8RX Tractors. The dual-pump system provides a hydraulic flow of 318 L/min (84 gpm), ideal for running at lower engine speeds. At the rear, up to six selective control valves (SCVs) are available.
INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY WITH JOHN DEERE INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS: Your needs and success are the focus of John Deere. John Deere makes it easy for you to benefit from having a connected tractor in your operation. All tractors come standard with JDLink™ telematics system and users can turn on connectivity in the John Deere Operations Center™ application. With a StarFire™ Integrated Receiver and G5Plus Display, you can easily step right into advanced technology. If you’re an advanced tech user, you’ll enjoy the benefits of a highly intelligent machine connected to a full suite of solutions on the most open platform in the industry.
JOHN DEERE CONNECTED SUPPORT™ PREVENTS DOWNTIME AND EFFICIENTLY RESOLVES ISSUES WITH REVOLUTIONARY TECHNOLOGY-BASED SOLUTIONS: When you buy John Deere equipment, you expect reliability. You also know that problems can happen, and a product is only as good as the support behind it. That’s why John Deere equipment is prepared with technology that senses potential issues and can alert you and your dealer promptly—in the cab or anywhere you are. John Deere Connected Support is a revolutionary change to support that leverages technology and the connectivity of JDLink™ telematics to prevent downtime and resolve problems faster. These tools decrease downtime by an average of 20 percent, enabling faster responses to unexpected problems and reducing technician trips to your machine. For some issues, unplanned downtime can even be prevented altogether through prediction of the issue.
