Features



6120M standard cab with Compact CommandARM™ console6120M standard cab with Compact CommandARM™ console

The 6M Tractor was designed to ensure maximum maneuverability, visibility, and superior comfort for operators’ working long days. The 6110M and 6120M, with the updated sloped-down hood design, feature a 17.8-cm (7-in.) shorter wheelbase (240 cm [94.5 in.]) allowing you to maneuver tight areas with no problems. Inside, the 6M cab has been designed to maximize operator comfort and visibility. All-around visibility of 310 degrees from within the cab ensures accurate tractor placement, implement hookup, and optimum tractor performance. Additionally, all 6M Tractors will come standard with a digital cornerpost display and include additional options to further improve operator satisfaction like:

  • Mechanical or electrical joystick with PowrReverser™ functionality
    • Quickly and easily change directions with the push of a button while doing loader work
  • Compact CommandARM console
    • Swivel in your seat and have all the controls at your fingertips
  • Front axle suspension

All 6M models come with the option to upgrade from mechanical to electronically controlled SCVs. To control a rear implement, up to four electrical SCVs or three electrical SCVs plus power beyond can be ordered. Each SCV features four positions – neutral, raise, lower, and float. The electrical SCVs are fully adjustable with the digital cornerpost display. Additionally, you can choose what SCVs are right for your operation with the following combinations of SCVs: 

With Compact CommandARM console:

  • Up to four electrical SCVs possible or three plus power beyond
  • Loader packages with electrical joystick available
  • Mechanical SCVs are not available

With right-hand console:

  • Up to three mechanical SCVs possible plus power beyond
  • Up to four electrical SCVs possible or three plus power beyond
  • Combination of two electrical and one or two mechanical SCVs is possible
  • Loader packages with maximum of three mechanical SCVs available
  • Loader packages with electrical joystick available
6120M with optional front hitch6120M with optional front hitch

For all 6M Series Tractors, an optional integrated John Deere Category 3N front hitch with hook-end draft links can be factory installed. The high lift capacity of 4400 kg (9,700 lb) maximum and 3300 kg (7,275 lb) through the full lift range ensures compatibility with heavy front implements and ballasts. If the tractor is not equipped with Triple-Link Suspension (TLS™), an accumulator will be installed to ensure driving comfort. The economy front hitch allows:

  • Maximum uptime with quick and easy changing from folded to working position
  • The operator to be highly flexible with the front ballast
  • Optional availability of integrated front power take-off (PTO)
6155M with Premium light-emitting diode (LED) light package6155M with Premium light-emitting diode (LED) light package

Lights on the 6M Series Tractors have been positioned and designed to provide maximum visibility to the front, sides, and rear to increase productivity in any operating conditions. The updated cab lighting pattern provides 330 degrees of coverage while the hood lighting provides the remaining 30 degrees. You have two options to upgrade lighting with the Economy and Premium light packages available:

  • Economy light package
    • Two additional work lights in the front, side, and rear
  • Premium light package
    • Two additional work lights in the front, side, and rear
    • All lights are LED lights

 

Both packages require the 14-V/150-amp alternator (code 8741) and 12-V/174-amp-hr battery (code 8747).

Information and features can be accessed through Operations Center, the JDLink tab on MyJohnDeere.com, or by using the JDLink app. JDLink also enables you to:

  • Access important machine information like machine hours
  • Keep track of your fleets
  • Monitor work progress
  • Manage logistics
  • Analyze and optimize machine performance
  • Receive alter SMS or email messages
  • Perform remote operator support
  • Automate data exchange

 

You can choose between two subscription levels: JDLink Access and JDLink Connect.

6M Series Tractors have been redesigned to meet stringent reliability and serviceability requirements. Daily service requirements have been reduced and are simple to accomplish with improved accessibility to the engine. All 6M models are equipped with a 60-degree hood, and the 6110M and 6120M feature removeable side panels, allowing easy access to reduce time and make serviceability even easier. These features allow you to quickly and easily check parts like:

  • Engine oil filter
  • Engine fuel filter
  • Coolant recovery tank
  • Radiator cleanout screens
  • Air cleaner

 

Additionally, the oil dipstick on the 6110M and 6120M allows you to check the engine oil level without opening the hood.
