Avant mounted seed drill combination with FTender mounted front hopper

The special comfort hydraulic system for the Avant enables the hydraulic functions of coulter pressure, coulter lift and machine folding to be controlled via the ISOBUS terminal. Technically, just one tractor spool valve is required. It is then possible to switch between these functions in the operator terminal.

The advantages of Comfort hydraulics

• Optimum adaptation of the coulter pressure to the field conditions
• Easy reading of the coulter pressure
• Limiting the upper and lower limit of the coulter pressure

1. Button for activating the desired function
2. Currently selected hydraulic function (coulter pressure in this case)
3. Control panel for setting the selected function (coulter pressure in this case)

The LED work lights provide ideal visibility until late into the night, even on long working days. The LED work lights are available for both the FTender and for the sowing combination.

A middle ridge eradicator, which effectively levels even the smallest ridges, is available for the Avant 6002-2 as an option. The middle ridge eradicator is not available in combination with the transport chassis. 

AMAZONE offers an additional transport chassis for transporting the Avant 6002-2 on the road. The load is taken off the tractor when driving on the road and the travel comfort becomes better for the driver.

Advantages of the transport chassis:

• Higher comfort on the road
• Reduced rear axle load
• Extension of the permissible tractor options when in road mode

The optional camera system on the FTender front tank provides additional safety at the front in cross-traffic when faced with driving situations with restricted visibility. The certification of the system for the FTender 1600 by the DLG (German Agricultural Society) allows farmers to dispense with an escort, even if the front tank projects far forwards. The high-resolution, anti-glare monitor is backlit and shows the left and right camera images simultaneously. A reversing camera can also be linked to the monitor.

This means that the Avant with FTender 1600 can be used very flexibly and economically with just a single driver.*

The camera system without DLG certification still requires an escort.

*Please observe valid, country-specific legislation!

AMAZONE also offers the FTender with the T-Pack F front tyre packer as an option. The FTender with a front tyre packer with passive steering shows its strengths as a seed hopper during sowing and ensures good reconsolidation between the tractor wheels.

Advantages of the T-Pack F front tyre packer:

• Good reconsolidation between the tractor wheels
• No restrictions in the field of view at the front thanks to the integrated raised transport position
• Load relieved from the front axle of the tractor during sowing
• Additional ballasting possible

The extremely compact design of the FTender allows comfortable handling of the large mounted front hopper. Even the front tyre packer is integrated in such a way that its transport position does not restrict the field of view.

The optionally available active dust separator reduces the dust load in the conveyor system and increases operational reliability, especially in dry operating conditions.

Optional additional weights allow the mounted front hopper to be ballasted with up to 900 kg. Ballasting of up to 300 kg is possible for the FTender with the T-Pack F front tyre packer.
