MT7.80f and MT7.90f complete LS Tractor's citrus portfolio

Thinking about offering another technological solution for the citrus segment, LS Tractor is presenting the new series of MT7 tractors to the market, thus completing its portfolio of tractors designed for these activities.

“The new MT7.80f and MT7.90f tractors bring a series of new features with the aim of offering the market better operational efficiency and reduced fuel consumption”, says LS Tractor marketing and product manager, Astor Kilpp.

The basis of this new project came from Brazilian engineering, accompanied by new product engineers from the headquarters in South Korea. “For this reason, these tractors bring some specific improvements, indicated by Brazilian producers in this segment and the main characteristics of these tractors were customized for these customers ”, points out Kilpp.

The new series was designed to deliver more torque, which defined the choice of four-cylinder Perkins engines with 80 and 93 hp, MAR1/Tier3 technology, with low noise and lower vibration characteristics. “It’s a lot of power in a compact model”, says Kilpp, adding that they have 16% more engine torque compared to competitors, 43% more torque reserve and 19% more power at the PTO, according to comparative data from technical publications indicated by the manufacturer. “These characteristics define this project as models of greater strength and excellent consumption ratio”, highlights the marketing manager.

The two MT7.80f and MT7.90f models are equipped with a modern LS Transmission design that offers 20 forward and 20 reverse speed options (20x20), and with the Synchro Shuttle reversal it offers great agility in maneuvering and super Creeper reducer, allows specific work with implements that require a speed below 1km/hour when traveling. The power take-off offers three speed options (540, 750 or 1000 rpm), with maximum power of 76hp and 87hp. "Designed to meet the recent needs of working with the tractor's TDP, which is why the variety of implements available in this segment and the remote control is specified with 3 valves, one to suit implements with variable flow hydraulic motors, these technical characteristics are bringing a new proposal for mechanization in crops in restricted areas and dense plantations”, believes Kilpp
