Automatic guidance – Make the most of your day

Accessing John Deere’s automatic guidance solutions starts with the StarFire 6000 Receiver. Capabilities include better signal stability for maximum uptime and SF3 accuracy. This means the receiver always keeps you on track whatever the conditions are. With SF3, you get repeatable results – no guidance line or boundary drift – throughout one season. The StarFire 6000 Receiver works seamlessly with all John Deere guidance systems and all accuracy levels (SF1, SF3, Mobile RTK and Radio RTK).

iTEC™ Pro

Intelligent Total Equipment Control integrates AutoTrac™ automatic steering and implement management systems to control tractor speed, front and rear mounted implements, and differential lock engagement, among other parameters. This allows for hands-free turns while reducing soil compaction, resulting in picture-perfect headlands and consistent crop growth.

JDLink™ system

JDLink shows where machines are, what they are doing, and how they are performing. You or your dealer can remotely assist operators with machine setup and operation leveraging Remote Display Access (RDA). JDLink Connect additionally includes Wireless Data Transfer (WDT) for seamless data exchange between the machine and the office.

Job management made easy

Eliminate paperwork and endless phone calls during job planning, execution, and reporting. With the MyJobConnect™ application, you can assign clearly defined tasks to your operators on the go, utilising the MyJobsManager app. Your operators can view work orders in real time and execute accordingly utilising the MyJobs™ app on their mobile device. Once the job is done, you have instantly accurate and complete data at hand for quicker job reporting and professional invoicing.

Operations Center

Go to the Operations Center to allocate exact field locations for the next jobs, track the work progress of your machines, easily assign work orders to operators, view as-applied maps automatically sent from the field, and create, analyse, and share application reports with trusted partners and customers.

A commanding view

Ergonomic excellence, all-around visibility, and comfort are the hallmarks of the spacious ComfortView cab. All controls and machine/operator interfaces have been optimized for logical, intuitive use. All 6R Series Tractors are equipped with CommandARM™ controls and a Generation 4 CommandCenter™ Display. The GreenStar™ 3 2630 Display can be retrofitted on either of the right-hand-side cornerposts. The sloping engine hood and excellent all-around visibility give operators an unrivalled overview of their surroundings. The optional panoramic roof expands the operator’s field of vision, providing up to 30 percent more practical visibility when working with a front loader.

CommandARM controls and Generation 4 CommandCenter Display

The CommandARM, with its optional electronic reconfigurable joystick, provides a thoroughly intuitive operating interface. All the controls you need for daily work are available at your fingertips: selective control valves (SCVs), AutoTrac™ automatic steering, iTEC™ machine control, air conditioning, lights, radio, four-wheel drive (4WD), and hitch depth control. Mounted on the CommandARM, the Generation 4 CommandCenter display has easy-to-use, tablet-like swipe functionality and monitors everything you need for productive and efficient work.

CommandPRO™ joystick and Generation 4 CommandCenter Display

The CommandPRO joystick provides a thoroughly intuitive operating interface. All the controls you need for daily work are available at your fingertips: SCVs, AutoTrac automatic steering, iTEC machine control, air conditioning, lights, radio, 4WD, and hitch depth control. Mounted on the CommandARM, the Generation 4 CommandCenter display has easy-to-use, tablet-like swipe functionality and monitors everything you need for productive and efficient work.

Generation 4 CommandCenter Display with Extended Monitor

All 6R Tractors can be ordered with a secondary monitor mounted high on the C-post in operation with the 4600 CommandCenter Display.

 

The Gen 4 Extended Monitor delivers the ability to utilize an additional 25.4-cm (10–in.) monitor with the 4600 CommandCenter™ for viewing and adjusting multiple operational activities, such as a combination of planter run screens, guidance/coverage/as-applied map views, or Rate Controller settings.

Smooth operator

The Triple-Link Suspension (TLS™) Plus system guarantees optimum traction and field performance, applying up to 10 percent more power to the ground. It also ensures higher operator comfort, reduces operator fatigue, and increases productivity, while the variable ratio steering improves in-field manoeuvrability. 6R 230 and 6R 250 Tractors further benefit from extra comfort and stability that comes with the longer 2900-mm (114.2-in.) wheelbase.

Adaptive front axle

The self-levelling TLS Plus suspension system automatically adjusts sensitivity and suspension rate and synchronises with hitch sensing to compensate for power hop under heavy pull conditions.

Variable ratio steering

Variable ratio steering improves operator comfort, requiring less hand movement and less steering effort when turning on the headland or in confined spaces. The resulting faster turning of the steering wheel increases hydraulic flow, leading to a quicker response from the tyres. The system can be activated or deactivated in the CommandCenter™ display and is available for all 6R Tractors.

The high power output of the John Deere 4-cylinder, 4.5L (274.6 cu in.) engine and the 6-cylinder, 6.8L (415 cu in.) engine is made possible by our refined, four-valve, high-pressure common rail (HPCR) technology with an injection pressure of up to 2500 bar (36,259.4 psi). The PVS engine in the 6R 175, 6R 195, and 6R 215 models is equipped with a variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) that boosts performance and efficiency consistently across the torque curve. The PSS engines (6R 230 and 6R 250) use a two-stage turbocharging system in which the VGT multiplies the pressure created by a fixed vane turbocharger.
