715 HP CASE IH Quadtrac Tractor Disk Ripping

Hing CH power fans this video comes to you from a freshly harvested cornfield located in Southern Illinois where a 715 engine horsepower kih 715 quad track tractor is working on Fall tillage with a 22 1/2 ft wide 11 shank kih 875 eolo tiger disc Ripper the 715 is new from model year 2024 and it's the largest tractor ever produced by Ki H2 date I would like to share with you its specifications and capabilities as well as taking viewers for a ride in the tractor's cab to visit with the farmer to find out what he likes about running running this type of horsepower in his operation but first let's head out to the field so that you can see and hear this big tillage team at work the 715 quad track was introduced by Ki for model year 2024 in August of 2023 at the farm progress show held in decar Illinois this machine is manufactured in Fargo North Dakota and is powered by a 16 L kih fpt cursor two-stage turbo 970 cubicin 6-cylinder engine rated at 715 engine horsepower this tractor can achieve up to 778 horsepower when it encounters tough field conditions the 715 offers a peak torque of 2400 lb feet it's fitted with a 520 Gall diesel fuel tank and carries 85 Gall of diesel emission fluid for clean engine Solutions it features an fpt 16 for two reverse Powers shift transmission capable of running up to 26 1/2 mph when customers order this quad track they can choose to select an optional 1,000 RPM PTO they can also add a 3point hitch capable of 22,500 lb of lift capacity the 715 is only manufactured as a quad track model there is not a wheeled version of the tractor available a new larger Drive wheel allows for positive engagement of five lugs to handle the increased horsepower of the machine the tracks for this model are 12 in longer than the other five quad track tractors available from kih in model year 2024 ranging from 475 to 645 engine horsepower customers can order a 30in or 36in wide track for this machine the new 360° light package available for model year 2024 K stiger and quad track tractors is quite impressive here we can see the 715 working in a 40 acre field lighting up the night this tractor has a base weight of 66,000 lb and can be field weighted up to 72,000 lb kih has not released a list price for the 715 quad track yet but you can continue to watch for those details on ki.com in 2024 I'm up in the cab of the 715 quad track and it has excellent visibility very nicely laid out we can see all the instrumentation is down to two screens uh we've got all the computer details here and then see we're running about almost 7 mph and everything's nicely placed there up on the post great view out the cab the Muffler is right there but from the operator seat um it is not a problem as far as the view you got a nice two stage mirror and we can look out the back window here and see the 875 working very nicely and we're on auto steer making a perfect $22 half ft pass across the field and we're coming up here to the Headland and all the controls are right there on the joystick the farmer just turns it around here nice very nice tight turn with a big Implement and then with a push of a button it's right back on auto steer for that next pass so how have you uh liked this tractor it's a big change from previous quad tracks the AFS connect is very nice the auto steer is much more responsive you don't have the Magnum weave with it like you did the older series they made the programs or the buttons programmable so you can select what you like turn lights off on radio seat channels volume answer your phone over right here don't have to move to reach up and grab things so usually everything is up there in that bank and it's still there right but it's handy just to have it right there at your thumb with the new 1200 screen you can control your climate control from the from the armrest or the screen or up top as well makes it nice easy adjustments you can they put a programable button to where you can bring BR up Hydraulics instead of having to go through multiple pages so right now it shows you running 12.8 in deep here but you can actually adjust that on the go yes with the new soil command you can simply click the button you can adjust Ripper Shanks down to 13 at8 it's in infinite adjustment there you can bring up the disc and adjust How deep the disc G's going just from the screen you don't have to get out move spacers anything of that effect it has three programmable presets so that you can set for different soil conditions or you could shut it off and run it like a manual tool if you like well it's very handy especially when you're in corn residue uh working in different conditions and different yields as the 715 rolls across the field here we can see that it's skipping a pass leaving 22 and 1/2 ft un chiseled at this point so imagine that just help saves on the turn it makes it go a little faster and yeah trying to turn off gives you shorter head LS you make your turn easier and then when we get to the end we'll come back and catch the OD R so how do you like the uh 875 a gold time amazing job our PL to come in with a a finish tool in the spring hit it light and plant right into it it really seems to chop up the socks and bury the residue and imagine when you're running 13 in deep here that's uh breaking up a lot of compaction too so far seems to be doing an amazing job so we're coming back up here on the the corner and again it's just got that nice smooth turn and right back on that next pass so there are other things um with this um AFS connect screen you can actually you've got cameras on there where you can see the um the front and the back yes you can have a split screen or I can click and pull it up to one main camera you can watch your area it's going to tell you how many acres this tools down we haven't reset the field um you go in this is reset to this field we've used 89 gallon of fuel out in this F so far to work 77 Acres which pretty comparable with idle time the 2 gon ACR not a fairly common average for the Implement we're pulling so do you find that you're covering more Acres uh you run a 470 quad track now do you find the horsepower on this is getting more done or yeah going from a 470 quad with a seven shank dish graper to this an 11 shank you can cover cover about about double the acres in the same time well that's pretty good cuz it's definitely a big investment to jump up into a tractor like this and it's always good to get more done before the fall weather sets in and or winter weather and keeps you out of the field the our biggest issue is labor so if we can eliminate two people down to one that helps a lot tractors don't call in sick that's right hopefully not sometimes they're a little frustrating but a big new one like this definitely' be ready to go and they uh they definitely have a lot of serviceability out here with this this is very easy to operate the hood it goes up and down and uh you also have the um the step that is easy access it kind of lets you walk up at an angle and then it goes over to the side to in which with the quad tracks say the steps hinge with you while you turn so it doesn't matter what angle you stop the tractor at it's always the same easy access any other big changes or things that you've that you've liked with this um besides the the power and the technology or the when they went to the AFS connect what 2 years ago they done away with the bar for monitor Mar and put this rail in and put one here as well so it makes it much easier installing monitors and they gave you act charge power points right there so you don't have to bring your cable all the way down they've caught on got a factory RAM mount right here phone mounts extra but it's got the USB port everything so that you don't have cables run everywhere oh that's that's very nice a lot better than my 1981 International 4786 all the hydraulic levers are behind your seat and it's a stick you know on the floor so hope you get right they've come a long way well thank you for letting me ride along and um see this tractor being demonstrated for H&R Agra power and definitely impressive Ride Like You I hope
