NH T7.225 or T7.230

[oil barron]

It took long enough, but we have eventually bought a tractor. Haven't even collected it yet!! It's a 2015 T7.235 autocommand. It's on smaller tyres than I would have liked ( 580's) and does not have a front linkage, but the condition and low hours ( 3350, checked with a dealers laptop) swung it for me. It has the intelliview 4 screen, Isobus, exhaust brake, power beyond and air brakes. Drives and looks like new. Thanks to everyone for their advice, I'm delighted we went for a LWB in the end.
I have a question regarding a new front linkage. I haven't looked into it yet, but can the linkage new holland fit from the factory be retrofitted, or is it a different tombstone? Local garages seem to all fit Zuidberg links, but the pics on their website shows it looking quite bulky when the links are folded. Any other advice appreciated.
Thanks!!!!

2015 is a good age for the engine. Will only have add blue and none of the other shite. Uses less add blue than the new ones as well.

Thanks very much guys, looking forward to getting her home at the weekend!!!! It will be kept company by a 300hp 8870 that has been practically faultless for 10k hours, so she has big boots to fill!!!!
I must give Russels a call tomorrow @BigBarl . Their linkage comes with the option of external switches which would be nice. My mechanic can supposedly source the mid mount kit and joystick for approximately €1000 so whilst it does all add up, at least it will be a very neat addition once installed.

We have a Zuidberg linkage retrofitted on to a T7030, and when it's folded its only a matter of inches in front of the tyres. It's never been 'in the way' in the slightest.

Just a quick question. The tractor didn't come with an operators manual, so I ordered one 6 weeks ago from my local dealer. It only arrived 2 days ago, apparently they only print them as needed. Anyway, I think it is not the correct version. I have only gone through about 70 pages or so, but the information seems to pertain to earlier tractors, as it refers to the intelliview 3 monitor, and it also shows the air con controls being sited on the rear cab pillar, whereas our tractor has intelliview 4 and the controls in the roof.
As you can see from the attached pic, it is dated as a January 2011 edition, and the part no. is 84411172 .

I'm just wondering if anyone can confirm that this is indeed the wrong manual, and also does anyone know the correct Part no. for the manual I need?

The tractor is a 2015 T7.235 autocommand T4A.

Thanks!!!!!!

That version is correct

Thanks so much @Drillman !!!
The part no. is exactly what I needed. My local parts man is an absolute gentleman, but I don't think he has had to get very many manuals before. This will ensure I get the right one this time!!
Thanks again!!!!

I'm going ploughing tomorrow, after about 4 months of rain!!! It will be the first field work I'll have done with the tractor, and I was wondering what engine/transmission settings to use, such as engine revs/droop, transmission aggressiveness etc. I have the 3 point linkage and spools set nicely I think.
I just ploughed a run up and down the field to make sure all is OK, but I did notice that she seemed to be hunting between 2 ranges at a particular speed, maybe 7 km/h but I'm not certain. I normally plough between 8 and 9km/h, is that a good speed for the transmission and is there any way to avoid the hunting that I experienced as I don't want to wear out any synchros!!!!!
All advice appreciated, thanks!

You will need to slightly alter revs or speed setting to stop it changing gears continuously you don’t want it doing this all day . On a case 230 I’m in aggressive setting 2 on similar work to you .

If it’s doing this on my 225 I just lock the transmission in one range but max speed will then just be 12.4 k I think

LWB have three ranges but cannot lock them off like SWB, which have two. Our LWB doesn't hunt too much between ranges but fiddling the droop knob and the aggressiveness buttons will help if it is.

Ploughing away here the last 2 hours. Going very well, no hunting between ranges at all. I have revs set to 1400 to 1500 and 85% droop. Transmission on middle aggressiveness. Running about 40% engine load at that.

The LWB has 4 ranges does it not?

Yes
