With an exclusive Protect-U design, the tractor has 24 centimeters of space between the cabin and the engine, isolating the internal environment from noise, heat and unwanted vibrations. With noise levels of just 68dB, it is one of the quietest cabins on the market, as well as the most comfortable, with an interior volume of 3.4m³, therefore one of the most spacious.
MF 4707 Tractor
The MF 4707 cab was designed to increase performance and versatility in field activities. It is equipped with the AGCO Power engine. The engine with electronic management, turbo and intercooler, promotes an intelligent burning that provides savings of up to 10% of fuel per hectare. Another positive point of the MF 4707 cab is the versatility of its 12×12 transmission – the only one on the market in this category – with mechanical or electro-hydraulic reversal. The transmission is the most modern and has an excellent cost-benefit ratio.
Ideal for silage, grain and horticulture, the model has the best working gear scaling on the market.
