Features

IMPROVED SELECTION CONTROL VALVE (SCV) CONFIGURATIONS: The 9-series tractor plumbing is designed for max flow so there will be no restrictions in the system making it fast, easy, and cost effective if there is a need to switch between 1.3 cm (0.5 in.) and 1.9 cm (0.75 in.) couplers. Making the change between SCV coupler size will require a new housing and dust protection shield compared to a new SCV slice.
JD14 (13.6L/827-CU IN.) ENGINE: REAL WORLD USABILITY, NOT JUST POWER ON PAPER: The JD14 (13.6L/827-cu in.) engine from John Deere Power Systems has the power to handle heavy draft disks and rippers, hydraulically demanding air seeders and planters, and large transport loads like grain carts and slurry wagons. With a durable design and heavy-duty components, you can depend on the Final Tier 4 (FT4)/Stage V compliant JD14 engine, standard in the 291 to 471 engine kW (390 to 640 engine hp) 9 Series Tractors. We developed the JD14 from the ground up, starting with stronger castings and bearings and tougher internal components, all designed to meet the high demands of field operations. We replaced the fuel injectors with a high-pressure common rail (HPCR) fuel system and eliminated the diesel particulate filter (DPF) to boost fuel efficiency and lower operation and maintenance costs. Integrated coolant and oil passages, along with a new belt-driven water pump, eliminate potential leak points and allow for a less-crowded engine compartment, improving serviceability and reducing debris accumulation.
9 SERIES VISIBILITY PACKAGES LET YOU RUN WITH CONFIDENCE, DAWN UNTIL DUSK: Visibility is more than just lighting. It’s mirrors where you need them, shades for the blinding late-fall and early-spring sun, wipers to help keep all the glass clear, and integrated camera capability. The 9 Series Tractors let you choose the visibility package that best suits your needs – Select, Premium, or Ultimate with 360-degree light-emitting diode (LED) lighting –so you and your operators can run with all-conditions confidence.
INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY WITH JOHN DEERE INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS: Your needs and success are the focus of John Deere. John Deere makes it easy for you to benefit from having a connected tractor in your operation. All tractors come standard with JDLink™ telematics system and users can turn on connectivity in the John Deere Operations Center™ application. With a StarFire™ Integrated Receiver and G5Plus Display, you can easily step right into advanced technology. If you’re an advanced tech user, you’ll enjoy the benefits of a highly intelligent machine connected to a full suite of solutions on the most open platform in the industry.
A RANGE OF HYDRAULIC OPTIONS GIVE YOU THE POWER AND FLEXIBILITY TO TAKE ON YOUR TOUGHEST APPLICATIONS: Of course, the 9 Series has the hydraulic muscle you need to push, pull, lift, and power your most demanding implements. But thanks to a range of enhancements to the hydraulic system, these tractors can provide that power at lower engine speeds, saving you fuel while still giving your implements the capacity they need.
THE 9 SERIES: EASY TO RUN, EASY TO MAINTAIN: When you’re trying to get a field planted before weather moves in, there’s no time to hit a scheduled maintenance interval or get smacked with an unexpected repair. That’s why we designed the 9 Series for maximum reliability and less in-season maintenance.
Engine HP* - 537 Max/ 490 Rated (*Engine power PS (hp ISO) at max engine power speed (ECE-R120). John Deere Standard RES10080, SAE Standards J1995.)
Fully integrated precision ag technology.
Interval for engine oil change - 500 hr.
Interval for hydraulic / transmission oil change - 1,500 hr.
Interval for engine coolant change - 6,000 hr.
