Deere refines utility tractor range
Auto guidance system enhancements and new transmission available for mid-range tractorsJohn Deere has enhanced the integrated technology available in its updated 5R and 6M utility tractors to give customers an easy way to view AutoTrac Automated Guidance System information without having to purchase a separate display.
“Customers can now order 5R or 6M tractors with an AutoTrac guidance screen built into the corner-post display, to access the many benefits of the technology without additional and complexity,” said John Deere Tactical Segment Marketing Manager, Fraser Scott.
Once a John Deere StarFire Receiver is added, and the AutoTrac activation completed and setup, operators can start using hands-free steering straight away.
“Reducing input costs and having access to simple-to-use but highly effective technology are two of the most important priorities of our customers, so we’re very happy to announce this update which meets both of these important needs,” Scott said.
In addition, John Deere has announced the availability of a new premium John Deere Infinitely Variable Transmission (IVT) on select 6M tractors, for customers who demand precise speed control or who prefer an automatic transmission.
The IVT includes AutoClutch that operators can use to quickly brake and stop the tractor without using the clutch.
Customers who want to boost hydraulic flow on select 6M Tractors to quickly raise and lower or power large implements or attachments now have an option to choose a hydraulic pump that’s larger than the standard pump.
The updated 5R and 6M Tractors are now available for order at John Deere dealerships across the country.
