T7.300 review

[Peaceagri]

Finally got my T7.300. Initial review is the operating system is needlessly complicated. Everything is controlled and set via the monitors. Pto speed, linkage height, etc. Do I really have to flip through several screens just to cycle the reversing fan? What was wrong with the button. Build quality is also not what I expected (blue power unit). Wasn’t cheap, whole thing is kind of a let down to be honest, just underwhelming.
In typical NH fashion, the AC doesn’t work, but I am sure that will get fixed.
VF tires delivered with 35psi, but I blame poor dealer prep for that.
Cab is quiet though so that’s a plus.

I guess my point is a touchscreen is nice and fine when you are parked in the yard but when you are bouncing across a field it is really hard to finger tap a screen in the proper spot and make a configuration change.

Not many options now that don't include touch screens. Personally I've never found it a issue.

Get on with my t7.315 great. Lovely cab, very quiet, imo easy operating system. Very nice place to be for a day! The new cab has really caught up with the John Deeres

I had a new cab on demo lately and my thoughts echoed yours to be honest, yes the actual screen looks and works lovely but it’s just not as easy as the older style cab.

Comfortable, quiet, nice to spend a day in, but a step backwards for most jump on and go stuff.

I always make sure new tyres are pumped up to 2.5 bar (which is about the same) to seat them properly. Leave them up for as long as possible, only let the pressure down when I need the machine.
Are the lights now also via the screen?

Can you not use the encoder on the armrest for most functions rather than going through the screen? How I did it on a red one

Is the new cab any bigger on the nh t7? Looks kinda like the same frame theyv been usin for years

Yep it’s noticeably larger. Wondering how they’ll get it on the SWB without it looking wierd.

Its a few years since I sat in one but I remember it being massive inside, completely different to the older cab.

I agree with the screens controlling everything but that's the way all makes have gone from cars to tractors.

On the wife's disco sport, to switch the heated seat on you have to press a physical button on the dash that changes the screen to seats then you press the screen to switch it on

Maybe the swb models will continue with the old style cab ?
btw. The lwb and hd models are now made In Austria due to the size !
