The panoramic cab puts command of
the machine at the operator’s fingertips.
The armrest-mounted controls include all
key functions and up to six hydraulic con-
trol valves. The armrest also holds the
optional Command Center Display (CCD)
console that provides advanced ISOBUS
connectivity, for plug-and-play integrated
control of any ISOBUS-compliant equip-
ment. The CCD also includes video capa-
bility for up to two remote cameras.
Other cab improvements include:
• Added adjustable vents, including
three new low-level vents for improved air
distribution and temperature control
• New Opti-Ride cab suspension sys-

• Adjustable staircase ladder for easy

Dynamic Tractor Management
Built for today’s row crop farmer, the
DT Series offers simplicity and unparal-
leled performance with the introduction of
the all-new, industry-leading continuously
variable transmission (CVT) with Dynamic
Tractor Management (DTM). The DT Series
CVT with DTM is the most efficient, step-
less transmission on the market, reducing
the amount of horsepower and fuel needed
to do the job.
The CVT transmission, coupled with
the Dynamic Tractor Management (DTM)
system makes it much easier for the opera-
tor to constantly run the tractor at the most
efficient engine rpm while maintaining
high productivity from the tractor and
implements. DTM comes standard on all
DT Series tractors, and provides infinite
speed control from super creep to transport
speed without shifting, jerking or delay in
traction and power.
e3 delivers cleaner air, purer performance
AGCO Tractors is also introducing the
e3 Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
technology to the agricultural industry in
these new tractors as a better way to meet
current and future EPA compliance for
emissions. Using this proven emissions
technology, the DT Series tractors convert
the nitrogen oxides (NOx) that exit the
engine into harmless nitrogen and water
vapor by injecting diesel exhaust fluid
(DEF) into the exhaust.
