Valpadana Entire Range on Show at Fieragricola
Valpadana is showing a complete range at Fieragricola 2016. The Italian brand will be showing several new models in the VP 4600, VP 7000 and VP 9000 series.
These three versatile Valpadana ranges offer a wide variety of models able to adapt to the many specialist farming applications for which they have been designed.
VP 9000 SERIES
VP 4600 SERIES
Available in versions ISM (equal-wheel), ARM (articulated equal-wheel)
and VRM (with bigger rear wheels), the VP 4600 series is displayed
at Fieragricola in the footstep configuration. Easy to handle
and versatile, these distinguishing features are obtained thanks
to ultra-compact dimensions (the minimum width is merely 970
mm) and a turning radius of just 2,320 mm. Other characteristics
of the VP 4600 series, which features 23 to 48 HP Yanmar engines,
include the powerful oil-immersed multiple-plate braking system,
the 8 FWD + 4 REV transmission with synchronized reverse shuttle
and the fully independent PTO with dedicated oil-immersed multiple-plate
clutch. There is also a front hitch with down-speed regulator
and 1000 kg maximum lifting capacity. Maximum performance is
achieved with the new optional outfit which includes up to 3
double-acting control valves and a power lift with up/down/float
functions or 2 double-acting control valves with power lift and
draft control function.
VP 7000 SERIES
The VP 7000 Series is a highly professional range and is presented
at the Verona venue in the 7080 ISM (Equal-Wheel) footstep version,
but there's also an articulated (AR) version and an optional
cab available for both. The range is equipped with FPT 3200 cc.
4-cylinder turbo Tier 3 engines. The VP 7000 Series also features
a transmission with 16 FWD + 16 REV speeds plus mechanical reverse
shuttle and creeper as standard equipment (speeds from 0.8 to
40 km/h) completely manufactured by Argo
Tractors. These VP 7000
tractors have a new Joystick with full proportional control over
all users: continuous oil delivery with flow control, shut-off
valves on the hydraulic taps and floating functions on the double-acting
sections, electrohydraulically controlled PTO, 2,300 kg power
lift, 50 + 31 l/min hydraulic circuit, reversible driver's position
and front axle with 4WD engagement and electrohydraulic diff
locks.
VP 9000 SERIES
The VP 9000 Series is top of the Valpadana range and visitors to the
Verona venue will be able to examine the 90105 ISM model. Whilst
on show in footstep version, also available is a cab version and
reversible driver's seat as standard equipment. Thanks to their
extremely professional and specialized design, VP 9000 tractors
mark an important goal in Valpadana's high-range equal-wheel proposal
since they provide a solution dedicated to the needs of the specialized
farming market. Equipped with Tier 3 3.2-liter 4-cylinder FPT engines,
the power ratings offered are 88 and 95 HP. Mounted on silent-block
shock absorbers, the platform features a reversible driver's position
while all the operating functions (mechanical, hydraulic and electronic)
are available with perfectly integrated user-friendly controls.
The transmission comes with 16 FWD + 16 REV speeds, is equipped
with mechanical reverse shuttle and Argo Tractors' original creeper
(speeds from 0.8 to 40 km/h). The De-Clutch button on the shuttle
lever allows the operator to reverse the tractor without having
to depress the clutch pedal, thus confirming the high level of comfort
provided by these tractors. There's lots of room in the cab version,
in both the normal and reversed positions. The cab itself features
a monocoque structure and has a seat with air suspension plus an
easily serviced high-efficiency ventilation and air conditioning
system, making these tractors even more comfortable to use.
