New Tech in New Holland 300 Series Skid Steer and CTL

Real-Time Information At The Ready

This display brings all of the modern convenience features you have in today’s new vehicles to your work machine. The new HAWK display provides key operation data, including engine performance information, RPM, fuel level, battery voltage, hydraulic oil temperature, engine temperature and a trip breakout information. Trip information might be one of the more underrated features of this new information display. Just like in your vehicle, track how many hours you’ve been on a job, how much fuel you’ve used, what your fuel economy is and what the average engine load on your machine has been. This tool is excellent for keeping a better track on job times and fuel related expenses. Reset from job to job and you’ll have the best tracking of machine time you’ve ever had.

Customize For Your Work Pace

Not only does it tell you the machine’s current information, but it allows you to make changes to the machine’s configuration. Electric-Hydraulic controls such as bucket tilt speed, lift speed and machine drive speed can be changed to one of four settings; Low, Medium 1, Medium 2, or High. Control sensitivity of both the boom and the drive control can also be customized in Low, Medium or High.
Customization doesn’t end with the electric-hydraulics, but also extends to the engine. Operators can now choose to run their machine in Economy Mode, which will preserve fuel use during operation. Other configurable options include an Engine Protection feature and an Ignition Timeout with a Timer.

Best-In-Class Visibility

In the previous 200 Series, New Holland had always relied on engineered design of the machine to create operator visibility. This included a large rear window, low engine hood and no rear frame towers. Competitors have not had this visibility designed into the engineering of their machines so they relied on a rear-view camera to create their visibility. With the new HAWK display, New Holland is integrating a factory-installed, standard rear-view camera that will give an operator unprecedented, best-in-class visibility. The rear-view camera can be set to stay on the screen at all times or only appear when you are backing up, so you can choose what fits you best.

Maintenance & On-Board Diagnostics

No one likes it when your machine has a problem. The key to overcoming these obstacles when they happen is to know what is going on. That is why on the HAWK display, when error codes are present on the machine, there is a locally installed Diagnostic Trouble Codes system to help identify and spell out the problem. This will lead to a quicker understanding of what is going on and quicker diagnostic and repair times.

Security

As technology has continued to progress, the need for keys keeps declining. In late 200 Series machines, New Holland converted to a keyless ignition on its cab models. Unfortunately the only protection from theft was by locking the door and you still had to have a key to do that. With the addition of the display, New Holland 300 Series models can have a custom security code set for operation. Not only are you able to leave your key behind, but you don’t have to sacrifice machine security at the same time.

Summary

The all-new HAWK® 8″ Information Display is the best new feature of the 300 Series New Holland Skid Steer & CTL. It gives operators the ability to see live information and customize the machines performance to their liking, while keeping the machine safer than before with on-board security and diagnostics. This new 300 Series will be rolling out on dealer’s lots in early 2020 so keep an eye out for the all-new New Holland skid steer and CTL that brings unprecedented upgrades to these machines in the industry.
