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. Cab suspension with an air seat reduces high-frequency vibrations typically associated with road transport. The ActiveSeat™ II equipment is typically chosen for field applications to reduce vertical movement and operator fatigue.
- Air seat with fixed cab offers excellent ride quality in a variety of applications
- Two-post cab suspension with an air seat offers exceptional ride for operators spending time on the road
- ActiveSeat II greatly reduces vertical motion experienced in field applications
- Choice of options is available on all 8R Tractors
Independent-Link Suspension (ILS™) primarily helps deliver power to the ground by maintaining proper tire-to-ground contact through a fully independent system. In addition, ILS greatly improves ride over rough or uneven terrain and drastically decreases power hop.
Quickly and easily adjust tire pressure from the cab with John Deere CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System)
John Deere CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) allows operators quickly adjust tire pressure without leaving the cab, insuring no compromise in tire pressure regardless of the situation. On the road, John Deere CTIS increases transport efficiency and reduces tire wear by allowing precise tire adjustments to match implement requirements.
As you enter the field, simply air down to a field pressure to increase footprint nearly 25 percent for a 2 to 4 percent reduction in slip and 0.2 bar (3-psi) reduction in ground pressure. This change helps boost field productivity by nearly 6 percent while reducing soil compaction and smearing. John Deere CTIS also includes a unique coupler to on-board air from implement-mounted compressors or off-board air to implements equipped with CTIS to ensure total system benefit.
- Inflate and deflate quickly from the seat of the cab at 0.14 bar (2 psi) per minute
- Customizable field and road settings – change settings with the press of a button
- Ideal field pressure lowers ground pressure, reduces slip, and increases productivity
- Ideal road pressure reduces tire wear and increases fluid efficiency
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 with 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) options.
- Single or dual pump options to fit specific producer applications
- Up to 318 L/min (84 gpm) through the dual pump system on 8R and 8RX Tractors
- Options from four to six factory-installed SCVs
- For maximum flow, 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) SCV couplers are available factory and field installed
A power beyond option is available on all models, and a high-capacity take-out oil reservoir (on 8R Tractors only) is also available for high-demand applications.
