Stage 5 emissions compliant engine
The new Stage 5 emissions complaint engine from AMAZONE uses exhaust gas recirculation, a diesel oxidation catalyst and a diesel particle filter to help protect the environment. The diesel particulate filter is continuously regenerating during operation. The SCR catalytic converter reduces the levels of nitrogen oxide with the aid of a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) injection. The 20 litre DEF tank is positioned at the side of the standard 290 litre diesel tank. The DEF consumption amounts to approximately 2.5 % of the fuel consumption. A tank extension of 110 litres is available as an option, meaning that a tank capacity of 400 litres is possible.

The benefits: 

• Stepless hydrostatic drive from 0 to 50 km/h* 
• State-of-the-art fuel management on the road and in the field with ECO and POWER mode 
• Tailor-made speed regulated radiator fan drive 
• Proven Deutz technology with a comprehensive service network

• Deutz 6-cylinder diesel engine with a maximum output of 225 kW (306 hp) 
• Turbocharger with intercooler 
• Common-Rail injection technology 
• 7.8 litre capacity 
• Country-specific execution according to either Stage 3A or Stage 5 emission compliance

The new and optimised engine rev regulation mean that you can always operate the Pantera at the optimum fuel consumption efficiency. When ECO Mode has been selected in the AmaDrive vehicle terminal, the engine will search for the optimal operating point for torque and revs in the given driving situation. 

When spraying on the flat, an engine rev reduction down to 950 rpm is possible. This finely tuned, automatic adaptation of engine speed takes place continuously between 950 and 2,000 rpm. However, when working on steep slopes, or operating with a full tank in hilly terrain, maximum power at up to 2,000 rpm can be drawn upon by using the POWER Mode.

Example for ECO mode
1. Around 80 kW is required on the flat 
2. When the machine is climbing a hill, the torque increases under load. The speed remains constant.
3. The climb takes longer: the power consumption increases to 120 kW. The speed remains constant with slightly increased fuel consumption.

The powerful Deutz 6-cylinder diesel engine with Common-Rail injection technology provides 306 hp and impresses by its high performance yet low fuel consumption. Thanks to the modern hydrostatic drive mechanism, you can drive the Pantera with absolute infinite variability. 

This system allows, even at a low engine speeds, high start-up torques and a very dynamic acceleration.

• Revs on demand The fans even switch off under low power demands and cool temperatures 
• Positioned beyond the reach of dirt 
  • Left: charge air, hydraulics. 
  • Right: engine, air-conditioning

The low unladen weight of the Pantera 7004 (approx. 11,750 kg in a 24 metre boom width) is another advantage with regard to its low fuel consumption. The fuel tank volume of up to 400 litres enables high work rates over long days.

Pantera – reliable intelligence
Due to the large wheel diameters, very high torques are required, especially when starting off. The intelligent drive concept of the Pantera does not build up these high forces hydraulically but mechanically via the fixed reduction ratio of the planetary gearbox. This is an extremely reliable drive under difficult ground conditions and when starting off. The tyres with a height of up to 2.05 m provide maximum traction and soil protection. The higher gear reduction ratio in the Pantera 7004 also ensures that enough torque is available in any driving situation.

Advantages of the drive system:  

• High torque at all times 
• No speed change steps 
• Possibility of larger wheel diameters 
• A fixed reduction ratio in the planetary gearboxes drive the wheels

The drive torque of the four wheel motors is constantly being monitored electronically and then regulated to ensure the optimum vehicle behaviour even under difficult conditions. Power-consuming differential locks are avoided. Traction control (TCS) also ensures safe driving on the road at all times.

When the speed is reduced via the drive lever, the Pantera’s hydrostatic brake is activated and the vehicle is braked down to a complete stop without fuss. In addition, the Pantera has a hydraulic braking system with disc brakes, which are applied via a foot pedal. The drive stops automatically when they are applied.

Advantages of the braking system:  

• Safe and elegant driving performance 
• Reliable braking performance, even during emergency stops from 50 km/h 
• Automatic activation of the parking brake when standing still 
• Autohold assist when starting off on a slope

AMAZONE offers the Steer-Ready kit as a GPS-based automated steering solution which controls the hydraulic steering. This provides a reproducible track-to-track accuracy of approx. 2 cm in combination with an RTK correction signal.

As an option, the Pantera can be equipped with the Steer Ready prepared connection for automatic steering systems. As a result, the Pantera is prepared ex works for the installation of various steering system products.

There is a choice of two manufacturers with regard to the steering system which can be installed in the Pantera in the factory. The customer can choose between the premium suppliers TopCon and Trimble, each of which can be equipped with different correction signals up to and including RTK accuracy, depending on the requirements.

Relax and enjoy the job – even on the headland

In spite of the size of the vehicle, the minimum turning circle of the Pantera is only 4.50 m when in all-wheel steer. This extreme manoeuvrability significantly increases work rates, particularly in small fields. Switching between all-wheel and front-wheel steering is carried out via the AmaDrive 7.0 vehicle terminal. Dog leg steer helps you keep perfectly on track, even on a side slope.

The Pantera also shows its intelligence on the headland:
If headland management has been activated on the AmaDrive 7.0 vehicle terminal, switching off the nozzles automatically switches to all-wheel steering and the boom is lifted. Front-wheel steering is restored when the nozzles are switched on after turning has been completed.
