Power without limits
#
Engine

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 OOS leverages different levels of technology and turbocharger configurations to efficiently deliver peak performance throughout the portfolio.

Reversible fan

Functionality of the reversable fanFunctionality of the reversable fan

Optimize engine performance in dusty environments by utilizing the optional reversible fan technology available on all 6M OOS Tractors. The reversible fan allows the operator to quickly clean radiator screens from the comfort of the operator station. By manually activating the system with a switch in the operator station, 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.
