John Deere Expands Features and Models of 6 Family Tractors for 2015
New 6D/6R models offer new transmission options, increased hydraulics, more comfort
J
OHN DEERE HAS MADE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE 2015 6D AND 6R series tractors for farm and ranch use. The 6D series tractors (6105D, 6115D, 6130D and
6140D) come with 2 new transmissions — a 12/12 PowrReverser™ or optional 24/12 PowrReverser™ Hi/ Lo — to provide more speeds within each working range. According to Brad Tolbert, marketing manager for 6 Family Tractors for John Deere, these new trans- mission options allow operators to shift on the fl y to match changing fi eld conditions and keep engine RPMs constant for PTO-driven equipment such as rotary cut- ters and balers. Additional horsepower has been designed into the
existing 6R series tractors and 3 new higher horse- power models have been added to the series, making these tractors even more productive in the fi eld. These higher spec machines feature Final Tier 4-compliant engines with Intelligent Power Management, which automatically provides up to a 40-horsepower boost when the load calls for it, especially during transport and PTO-driven implements. Other enhancements include a new hydraulic valve
stack with up to 6 selective control valves (SCVs) for increased hydraulic capabilities; improved visibility to rear SCVs; new remote rear couplers like those found on the 7R and 8R Tractors to make it easier to attach and detach implements; and the IVT transmission with new overdrive that maintains transport speeds at lower RPMs to reduce fuel costs and noise. Inside the cab, customers will notice a new Com-
mandARM™ with a standard 7-inch (10-inch optional) Generation 4 CommandCenter™ touch-screen display. To learn more about all the 6 Family Tractors, in-
cluding the versatile and powerful new 6D and 6R models, visit your local John Deere dealer or visit
