Product Features for John Deere 7R 230 Row Crop Tractor: 

Reactive Steering:

  • Reactive Steering, inspired by the automotive industry, provides a balanced feeling to the steering wheel, akin to driving an automobile.
  • The load-reactive steering valve utilizes hydraulic inputs from both left and right steering cylinders. It offers feedback to the steering wheel to assist it back to the center, especially during turns.
  • Reactive Steering reduces hand movements by up to 44 percent during straight-line driving, enhancing operator comfort.
  • It proves beneficial for navigating roundabouts, intersections, or curvy back roads. As the steering wheel is rotated to complete a turn, operators can relax their grip, and the steering wheel returns to center.
  • Reactive Steering is particularly advantageous for transport jobs, reducing operator fatigue during long hours of towing tankers, trailers, and dump wagons.
  • It works seamlessly off-road, and operators have the option to enable or disable Reactive Steering from the display. A toggle button on the display also allows switching between Reactive Steering and traditional hydraulic steering for field operations.
  • AutoTrac™ Integration: Reactive Steering is automatically disabled when AutoTrac is engaged and reverts to the previous state upon disengagement. It is also disabled when the tractor is in reverse and resumes the previous state in the forward direction.
