Cotton Picker Overview

The 7760 Round Module Builder is the next generation cotton picker, combining harvesting and module building solutions into one versatile cotton harvester.
 
With the John Deere 7760 Cotton Picker you'll have the benefits of:

• No module builders are necessary
• No boll buggies
• No Tarping

There is a significant reduction in the harvest time fuel and labour costs – saving you thousands of dollars.

Because of its ability to harvest virtually non-stop, the 7760 Cotton Picker gives back that time with an immediate increase in harvest efficiency. If a harvest typically takes four weeks, it could be finished up to five days earlier!

Virtually every study performed on the subject concludes that a basket picker spends up to 20% of its time unloading, waiting for boil buggies or driving back and forth to a module builder. This is time spent not picking.

Key features include:    

• 13.5 L 6135H John Deere PowerTech Plus™ engine, delivering 500 hp (373 kW)
• 1,135 litre fuel tank
• 1,362 litre water solution tank with remote fill
• Full time 4WD

• On-board round module builder
