Axle Choices & Maintenance

	Extended Warranty

Your freedom of choice continues to the very front axle you want in your 6D Series Tractor.

Are you looking for efficient power delivery and traction? The Caster/Action– mechanical front-wheel drive (MFWD) axle is the ideal fit, delivering extra muscle to convert more engine torque to drawbar pull power. By accommodating higher horsepower loads, it also gives your productivity a boost. There's less wheel slippage, too. With less tractor ballasting needed, there's less soil compaction, greater fuel economy, and longer tire life.

Or do you need more economical power delivery? Choose the adjustable two-wheel drive (2WD) front axle option available on the 6100D and 6115D. You can count on a stable, comfortable ride over uneven terrain, thanks to the 2WD's 20-degree axle tire oscillation.

Both front axles are designed to withstand the stresses that go with your working routine, day in and day out.

	Look at how tight your turns are with the MFWD axle. Featuring an exclusive 12-degree Caster/Action design that lets you turn corners as sharp as 52 degrees, it's perfect for headlands or livestock building areas. Its centerline design provides excellent maneuverability and crop clearance.
	You can even engage and disengage the MFWD on the go without clutching. The console-mounted lever at your left makes it easy. Then feel the power surge through slick spots and tough terrain.

At John Deere, we know the joys of farming and a country lifestyle. We know the challenges that go with it, too. That's why we've made our tractors so reliable, durable, and easy to operate. Servicing is necessary, of course, but it shouldn't be a worry. We've made it fast and easy, reducing time and input costs by increasing service intervals and giving you easy access from the ground. You'll see a few examples to the left.

It's not enough to offer the right hardware. It takes the right human element, too. ONGMAC has the training, the tools and the advice to work with you one on one. We don't want to make a sale, we want to make a lifelong customer.

1. Changing the transmission/hydraulic oil is only once every 1,000 hours.

2. Checking the oil is easy – so easy, you don't even have to tilt the hood.

3. Cleaning out the radiator is a breeze – the tiltable A/C compressor gives you great access.

4. Replacing the air filter doesn't require tools. Just undo the Ouik-Tatch™ fastener for fast, easy servicing. The Power Core air filter removes 93 percent of dust and dirt particles before they reach the filter.
