FEATURES
LOW-PROFILE STANDARD OPEN OPERATOR STATION (OOS)
The standard OOS on 5ML Tractors was designed for low-clearance applications. It features a low-profile seat, a smaller-diameter steering wheel, protected controls, and a low-profile, rear-mounted rollover protective structure (ROPS). Rounding off these standard features and incorporated into each operator platform is a shield which limits heat transfer from the hydraulics to the operator.
BENEFITS
Ability to drive under low-clearance areas
Visibility of the front of the tractor with a sloping hood
Conveniently located operator controls within arms reach on the right-hand console control pod
Protect control pod from low-hanging crops with the right-hand fender shield
All the most crucial operator controls are conveniently located within arms reach on the right-hand console control pod. The engine throttle control, selective control valve (SCV) levers, power take-off (PTO) engagement, and hitch-lift control levers are grouped together. On the 5ML, this control pod is positioned on the right-side fender, protected from low-hanging crops by a shield.
Color-coded bands on the SCV levers correspond with the color on the rear SCVs, making it easy for any operator to determine which lever operates which rear SCV.
The 5ML Tractor also offers optional fender extensions to minimize crop disturbance, especially in orchards or tree nut applications. Two fender extension options are available to meet varying tire sizes and coverage preferences.
The foldable ROPS on the 5ML Tractor has a unique design and is 15.2-cm (6-in.) lower at maximum height than the standard 5M Tractors.
The shifter linkages are tighter to offer a more accurate shift pattern, which translates to a crisper throw between gears. Incorporating technology found on standard 5M Tractors, the 5ML now offers a declutch button, enabling the operator to shift gears within a range without the use of the foot clutch.
5ML TRACTORS ALSO INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING FEATURES:
Retractable seat belts
Rear certified ROPS for OOS tractors
Heat shield limiting hydraulic heat passed onto the operator Key-switch interlock prevents bypass starting
Audible and visual PTO warning alerts when the operator leaves the seat with the PTO engaged
Positive park position prevents the tractor from moving when the engine is off
Four amber turn-signal/flashing warning lights for road transport (these are break-away) Slow-moving vehicle (SMV) sign alerts other road users during transport
Safety decals keep safety in the minds of new and experienced operators
Left- and right-hand steps provide easy and convenient access from both sides of the tractor Fuel system is fully grounded to meet safety and fuel fill regulation requirements
For convenience of operation, the fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) fill are both on the same side with clearly marked and color-coded caps. The DEF tank has a capacity of 12.1-L (3.2-gal.), which is more than enough to sustain proper tractor operation and fuel treatment for more than one full tank of diesel. A field-installed lockable fuel cap is offered for protection and peace of mind.
TRANSMISSION CONTROLS ON POWRREVERSER TRANSMISSION MODELS:
Gear and range shift levers are located to the right of the operator. The gear lever incorporates a declutch button enabling the operator to shift gears without the use of the foot clutch. Unique knobs also make it easier to distinguish between the two.
TRANSMISSION CONTROLS ON POWRQUAD TRANSMISSION MODELS:
A single transmission control is located to the right of the operator. This control features the ability to shift through gears within a range using the rabbit button to increase gears and the turtle button to decrease gears. A range change can be completed with this control, as well by moving through A-D ranges similar to a traditional range controller. To aide in ease of operation, operators can use the integrated declutch button rather than the foot clutch to change ranges. A foot throttle with a platform pedal is located on the right side of the operator. The pedal is positioned for ease of use, yet does not clutter the floor. The hand throttle is easily accessible on the right hand console. Engaged by either foot, the differential lock pedal is placed on the floor.
When the tractor is used in applications requiring the clutch and brake pedals to be used frequently, the operator will see the benefit of the suspended pedals. The electrohydraulic forward/reverse direction lever is located on the left-hand side of the instrument console, connected to the steering column. There is also a guard for the reverser lever. Operated with the left-hand finger, the right hand is free to simultaneously run the loader, hitch, or hand throttle.
3-POINT HITCH CONTROLS
Mechanical hitch controls are available on models equipped with a PowrReverser transmission, while models equipped with a PowrQuad transmission will have an electrohydraulic (EH) hitch. With an EH hitch, operators will have the functionality to raise and lower the hitch from the rear left-hand fender, reducing time when attaching and detaching implements.
PTO CONTROLS AND SPEEDS
The 5ML features electrohydraulic PTO engagement on all models. The push/pull knob on open station tractors is conveniently located beside the hand throttle on the right-hand side of the operator. When the PTO is engaged, a light on the instrument panel will illuminate and PTO speed is indicated by target bars. Models equipped with a PowrReverser transmission have a 540/540E rpm shiftable PTO while models equipped with a PowrQuad transmission have a three-speed PTO, 540/540E/1000 rpm.
Enhancing operator safety, the tractor does not start with the PTO engaged. An alarm sounds if the operator attempts to leave the seat with the PTO engaged. The PTO shaft is protected by a hinged shield.
HYDRAULICS CONTROLS
The color-coded bands on the levers, which control triple rear SCVs, correspond to the color of the dust cap and the SCV valve they control.
MECHANICAL FRONT-WHEEL DRIVE (MFWD) CONTROLS
All four-wheel drive (4WD) axles are equipped with the engage-on-the-go MFWD. This toggle switch is now located on the right-hand console.
LIGHTING CONTROLS MULTI-POSITION DIAL
The five-position lighting package is straightforward with the lighting control switch on the right side of the steering column. The switch positions are: off, warning, worklight, transport 1 (warning and high-beam headlights), and transport 2 (warning and headlights). A turn-signal lever is located on the left side of the steering column for quick and easy use.
POWER BULGE AND TORQUE RESERVE PULL THROUGH THE TOUGH SPOTS
Putting more power to the ground translates to increased productivity in demanding conditions. Simply put, torque is the useable power that can be achieved. More torque leads to more lugging ability which helps the operator be more productive.
5M Final Tier 4 (FT4) engines feature up to a 4 percent power bulge when put under load. The power bulge feature of the electronically controlled engine delivers additional horsepower as engine rpm drops below rated speed. Additionally, a 30 percent torque rise provides the force that maintains horsepower as engine rpm drops below rated speed.
POWRREVERSER 16F/16R TRANSMISSION
Ample speeds and ease of operation for demanding applications with the 16F/16R PowrReverser, providing 16 forward speeds and 16 reverse speeds. This transmission comes standard with a dual speed 540/540 Economy power take-off (PTO), and it is ideal for applications requiring frequent directional changes, such as loader work.
BENEFITS
Effortlessly switch directions with a small finger motion using the electrohydraulic fingertip directional lever
Frees the right hand to operate other tractor controls, such as the loader, rear implements, or throttle, as the directional lever allows the operator to steer and shift direction with the left hand
Ideal for rear blading and any applications that require frequent directional changes in tight spaces
Clutch-less hydraulic shifting between forward and reverse
Lower engine vibration, reduced noise, less wear and tear on the engine, reduced fuel consumption, and increased operator comfort from the standard economy PTO (E-PTO)
16F/16R TRANSMISSION INCLUDES:
Hydraulic wet clutches (forward and reverse)
Maximize durability and outlast the life of any dry clutch
When tractors are run by multiple operators with a variety of experience levels, a wet clutch is the best way to maintain transmission integrity and performance while decreasing clutch replacement costs
Platform-mounted shift levers (four ranges, four gears)
Two platform-mounted levers offer easy and comfortable shifting for a pleasant operator experience
The gear-shift lever is easy to reach, and the less-used range lever is shorter. Unique knobs make it easy to distinguish between the two
Left-hand reverser
The control is located on the left side of the steering column and selects forward, reverse, and neutral positions
Constant-mesh helical-cut gears
Provide quieter operation and excellent reliability while the pressure-lubricated top shaft adds to the transmission durability
Fully enclosed, rigid shift linkages for short throw and crisp shifts enable all operators to clearly know in what range and gear they are operating
Pressure-lubricated top shaft
Positive park pawl: provides positive park and eliminates the need for a hand brake
Neutral start switch
NOTE: A neutral start switch requires the directional lever be in the neutral position to start the engine.
TAKE CHARGE WITH POWRQUAD PLUS AND POWR8 TRANSMISSIONS
A more productive transmission in a mid-spec utility tractor is found with PowrQuad PLUS and Powr8 transmissions which builds on the clutchless hydraulic shifting between forward and reverse of the PowrReverser transmissions with simple push-button gear shifting.
