Looking for a reliable all-around tractor to support a variety of applications? The 6M offers a portfolio of 18 models with 5 frame sizes (2400mm to 2900mm) to optimize your operation. Whether you need a nimble tractor for loader work or a row crop tractor with dual tires, the 6M is up to any task.

The 6M Tractor was designed to ensure maximum maneuverability and visibility, no matter the job. The sloped hood design on the 2400mm wheelbase cab models delivers superior visibility to the front loader or front-mounted attachments. Operators can easily see the front mounted loader attachments (buckets, pallet forks, bale spears, etc.) to ensure proper alignment for attaching and detaching.

When you work in small spaces, a short wheelbase is critical in providing the tight turning radius needed to maneuver. The 6M features a 17.8-cm (7-in.) shorter wheelbase (240 cm [94.5 in.]) on four tractors ranging from 95 to 125 engine horsepower. Take advantage of a 4.3-m (14-ft) turning radius, perfect for cleaning out barns, working livestock, baling hay, roadside mowing applications, and more.

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 refined, four-valve, high-pressure common rail (HPCR) technology with an injection pressure of up to 2500 bar (36,259.4 psi). The 6M leverages different levels of technology and turbocharger configurations to efficiently deliver peak performance throughout the portfolio.

All 6M Tractors come equipped with Intelligent Power Management (IPM) in base configuration. IPM provides a 14.9-kW (20-hp) boost for operations using rear power take-off (PTO) requiring high-power or in transport applications over 15 km/h (9.3 mph). Operators can experience higher loads on the PTO in mowing and baling applications in thick heavy material. When this increased load is sensed by the engine, additional hp is delivered to push through challenging conditions. The solution improves productivity with more consistent ground speeds, quicker acceleration, and the ability to better hold desired transport speeds. All 6M Tractors have IPM in base equipment. Hydraulic IPM is available as a separate option to enable the IPM in applications resulting in non-stationary high hydraulic loads.

The reversible fan allows the operator to quickly clean radiator screens from the comfort of the cab. By manually activating the system with a switch in the cab, the radiator fan blades blow out dust and debris away from the radiator. This enables the engine to run cooler, resulting in fuel savings, less downtime, and overall increased efficiency.

Operators rely on a high quality and comfortable cab environment during long days. The 6M delivers a more productive, comfortable, and efficient experience through three cab packages and customizable options to fit any application. All 6M Tractors will come standard with a digital cornerpost display, delivering on superior visibility to the front of the tractor. This easy-to-read digital display gives you access to all critical machine data and settings in one place.
