Power Cruise™ II system strives for optimum fuel efficiency and the highest work rate
The Power Cruise™ II system is the next generation of New Holland’s new drive concept. The system automatically adapts engine speed and ground speed of the forage harvester, depending on the actual crop load conditions. During periods of reduced engine load, headland turns or during idling, the engine will slow down to improve fuel efficiency. When throughput increases, the engine speed will increase to keep up with the higher work rate. Under full load, the Power Cruise II system will adapt the forager’s ground speed at constant engine speed, to reach the highest possible work rate. On high horse power units, a fuel efficiency improvement of up to 15% can be obtained with the new Power Cruise II system.
Full power, even for the
largest attachments
All hydrostatic drive components are specified for the highest operational demands. In the standard configuration the crop attachment is driven through the HydroLoc™ feed roll drive. For use with large attachments in demanding crop conditions there is an optional second hydrostatic drive that allows for more power to be transferred to the crop attachment. This also allows adapting the attachment speed independently from the feed rolls.
Traction power in any field
Built with a high ground clearance - up to 14cm higher than competitive models - the FR9000 forage harvester manoeuvres with ease in any field situations.
A differential lock is standard and when linked to the optional true mechanical 4 wheel drive makes for a powerful passage through any field conditions.
