Efficient is the entry specification package for the MF 8700 S Series but you will notice that it is anything but basic. It provides all the key elements, with all key functions ergonomically grouped in the Control Command Centre armrest.

The slim dashboard design provides for quick, clear and easy analysis of operating data, presented on a 70mm x 52mm colour screen – the Setup and Information Screen (SIS).

Best-in-class features in the ‘Panorama’ cab offer the highest levels of comfort, quietness, visibility, space, access and technology. This spacious, four-post cab ensures operators work in superb comfort with exceptional visibility and control.

This level, with its more advanced features, aims to cater for more intensive, larger-scale operations seeking cost-effective benefits for the business.

The level of cab suspension damping can be set in from the cab, to meet the driver’s preference. Paired with a premium-class air-suspended operator’s seat, the result is one of the most comfortable rides around.

The Quadlink system, which can be switched on and off, uses hydraulic accumulators acting on the front axle to dampen ride over rough roads and fields, and improve comfort and safety on transport applications.

With a rear linkage lift capacity of 12,000 kg, there are few tractors in this power bracket that can match the MF 8700 S series for the ability to hoist heavy implements.

Reassuring, fade-free braking comes courtesy of oil-immersed, power-assisted disc brakes, while air brakes for trailed equipment are an option.

In PTO applications, the Dyna-VT transmission enables the operator to select precisely the tractor speed with a fixed engine speed engaged, so you will always achieve a perfect match for your PTO applications.

MF 8700 S tractors can be specified with a fully-independent 540 Eco/1000 rpm PTO, or 1000/1000 Eco speeds. External engagement and emergency stop buttons provide convenience and safety.

This new, optional feature enables the operator to adjust the steering ratio and select the optimum number of turns of the steering wheel required for a given amount of steering angle turns.

The rear hitch with a choice of pintle pin, pick-up hitch, clevis, K80 ball or drawbar has been completely redesigned to make coupling quicker, easier and safer.

The latest tyre equipment allows MF 8700 S models to work at very low tyre pressures, even for high traction jobs, including dual wheels with rear tyre choice up to 900mm and 2.15m diameter for better power transfer to the ground.

The Fingertip Spool Valve Management System enables complex equipment to be controlled with ease and precision, and the flows to be managed precisely.

The industry leading ELC is provided as standard. The system provides precise and responsive control of linkage functions ensuring accurate management of working depth for soil engaging implements plus working height for other implements.

Standard specification comprises four electrohydraulic spool valves, with up to eight available if required. (6 rear spool valves with 2 front spool valves)

At the front, buyers can specify a fully-integrated 5,000 kg front linkage designed to match the Massey Ferguson front suspension, with two doubleacting spool valves and a free return line.

Available from factory or via AGCO Parts with additional front, rear and tyre weights to exactly match your needs.

With the fully automatic Section Control for ISOBUS implements, operators can apply seeds, fertilizer or Crop protection products without overlapping. This prevents double treatment and areas worked outside of the field edges.

Available as an option on Efficient and Exclusive models, Datatronic 5 gathers and stores data on both tractor and precision farming setting. In addition, the terminal can be used to control MF Auto Guide, ISOBUS and cameras.

The new Fieldstar 5 terminal is designed in order to create a more intuitive Precision Farming experience, providing a system that delivers a straightforward an easy to use experience, improving efficiency, productivity and profitability.

The MF Task Doc system has a real place in the future of agriculture, helping farmers to become more productive through the knowledge brought by putting precision-measured data at the business owner’s fingertips.
