Infinitely Variable Transmission (AutoPowr™/IVT™) offers maximum productivity and comfort

AutoPowr™/IVT™

John Deere offers the stepless AutoPowr/IVT transmission for those looking for exact speeds to match any application. The fully electronically controlled engine and regulated transmission combine to provide maximum productivity and comfort:

Speeds from 50 m/h (0.03 mph) to 40/50 km/h (25/31 mph)
Allows for creeper speeds
Below 600-m/h (0.37-mph) the travel speed is independent of engine speed
Different transmission settings, depending on the application

Benefits:

Easy to operate
Drive and work comfortably
Save time and money by setting the exact speed for optimum implement performance
Less shifting time means better management of the implement

Speed control

AutoPowr™/IVT™ speed wheel and slot

Settings on CommandCenter™

Easy speed control through the speed control lever:

Quick and precise speed changes
Fine-tuning via the speed wheel
Two steps in the slot of the speed control lever to program two set speeds
Speed feedback on the analog dashboard: The needle shows the actual speed; red lights around the needle show the set speed
Easy to handle exact speed settings through CommandCenter™ and the speed wheel

CommandARM™

If the tractor is equipped with the AutoPowr/IVT transmission, the speed control lever is embedded in the CommandARM. With the CommandARM, the most-utilized tractor functions are integrated in the armrest:

Speed control lever
Electrical throttle
Electrohydraulic selective control valves (SCVs)
iTEC™ switch
AutoTrac™ switch
Power take-off (PTO)
Hitch control

Left-hand reverser

With the AutoPowr/IVT left-hand reverser, the operator can control four functions.

Park lock (P) – Tractor cannot move and the trailer brakes are engaged, if equipped
Forward/reverse (tractor icon)
Neutral (N) – Tractor is in a non-parked position and capable of movement
PowerZero™ – 10 seconds after the tractor stops rolling, the park lock automatically engages. If the lever is held in the center position between forward and reverse, the tractor will not be braked. That allows the tractor to move off quicker than the park position.

Electronic hand and foot throttle

Hand throttle

Foot throttle

The hand and foot throttles operate electronically:

Define setting of the engine speed
Quick attainment of desired speed
Precise speed adjustments

Custom mode settings

AutoPowr™/IVT™ custom mode settings

Operators can customize the auto shift engine speed droop as a percentage, between 4 percent - 30 percent of the full engine speed. Also, operators can adjust the ECO engine speed to choose the lower rpm used by the fuel economy feature, between 1800 engine speed – 1200 engine speed.
In addition, the load anticipation feature can be enabled for:

Hitch engagement
Hydraulic engagement
Hitch and hydraulic engagement

Load anticipation feature

A load anticipation feature is base equipment on all 6R Series Tractors equipped with an AutoPowr/IVT transmission. The load anticipation feature allows the AutoPowr/IVT to predict how much load the engine expects from the activation of the hitch or a particular SCV function.

For it to be activated, the SCV or hitch lever is placed in the detented position when the hydraulic load is decreasing. The system learns this load from an SCV or hitch lever movement in the detent position only, resulting in a decreased engine load (raising the implement). The AutoPowr/IVT remembers the load change, and when it detects the same lever starting a movement in the opposite direction (for example, lowering the implement), it automatically responds with a short engine rpm boost to provide more power to handle the oncoming load increase.

This provides the tractor an engine speed boost before the implement engages the ground. For example, if an operator lifts the implement out of the field, fuel economy mode kicks in to start reducing engine rpm as a headland turn is made. When the load anticipation feature detects the implement being lowered as the result of an SCV or hitch lever movement, an engine speed boost is automatically commanded prior to the implement engaging the ground.

John Deere-only feature
Tractor recognizes when additional power is needed, so the operator does not have to
Saves fuel, because the engine reduces rpms when no additional power is needed

AutoPowr™/IVT™ selector control via CommandCenter™

The AutoPowr/IVT application settings employ three modes to take full advantage of the engine-transmission communication: Full auto mode, custom mode, and manual mode.

Full auto mode

AutoPowr™/IVT™ full auto mode

Full auto mode enables the tractor to make adjustments to the transmission operating mode automatically, based on the engine and transmission speeds and the load on the tractor. This should be the AutoPowr/IVT setting for 95 percent of all applications.

Full auto mode switches between load control and fuel economy mode seamlessly, with no involvement from the operator, as conditions and applications change. Fuel economy mode automatically switches off when the PTO is engaged to provide full PTO power. Operators can set the maximum forward and reverse speeds for the tractor in their particular application.

Custom mode

AutoPowr™/IVT™ custom mode

Custom mode allows the operator to customize the AutoPowr/IVT settings when full auto mode is not desirable.

Manual mode settings

AutoPowr™/IVT™ manual mode settings

Manual mode turns the automatic adjustments off and disables the fuel economy mode of the transmission. The transmission does not automatically adjust engine rpm to save fuel in this mode. This can prove to be useful in applications like loader work, where the variability of engine speed based on load is not needed.

Engine speeds in “eco mode” without load

Models	At 40 k (25 mph) with rated rpm	At 40 k (25 mph) with eco mode *	rpm reduction *
6105 R – 6125R	2100	1470	630
6170 R – 6210 R	2100	1460	640

*Theoretical engine speed, not depending on rear tire size.

Forward/Reverse relationship

CommandCenter™ forward/reverse ration

Similar to the AutoQuad™ PLUS transmission, the AutoPowr/IVT can also adjust the forward/reverse speed ratio. The reverse speeds can be set to a maximum of 30 percent higher and 70 percent lower than forward speeds, but only in range 1. In range 2 the forward-to-reverse speed ratio is 1:1, up to 22 km/h (14 mph). Above that, the forward-to-reverse speeds will only go up to 30km/h (19 mph).

50 km/h (31 mph)

6R in transport

The following features are part of the 50k package:

TLS Plus with brakes for adapted braking capacity.
B speed rated wheels and tires to minimize vibration and increase ride comfort.
Hydraulic trailer brakes.

Models	At 50 k (31 mph) with rated rpm	At 50 k (31 mph) with eco mode *	rpm reduction *
6105 R – 6125 R	2100	1840	260
6170R – 6210R	2100	1830	270

Brake with integrated AutoClutch function

With the AutoPowr/IVT, no clutching is required to stop the tractor. After the brakes are released, the tractor automatically accelerates back to its previous speed due to the high torque of the hydraulic/mechanic power split in the transmission. This feature makes the AutoPowr/IVT an ideal transmission for operations that require a lot of speeds (like baling or loader work).

Torque

The AutoPowr/IVT is a combination of mechanical and hydraulic components that are capable of providing low speed with extremely high levels of torque:

Allows the tractor to smoothly pull away, even under high loads
Enhances front loader operation by delivering high torque, driving the tractor into the pile without slippage
Retains constant working speeds with PTO implements, which have a tendency to push the tractor

Creeper mode

Creeper mode is a standard feature on AutoPowr/IVT. Down to 50 m/h (164 fph), the creeper mode is activated when the selected speed is below 2,1 km/h (1.3 mph) in set position 1.

When the tractor moves below 600 m/h (0.37 mph), the engine speed is independent of travel speed. This allows the operator to choose the engine speed that best fits the task (rated speed for hydraulic or PTO usage, or low idle for fuel-saving operation). No additional power is needed.

CommandCenter™ allows operator to define settings

The GreenStar™ 3 (GS3) CommandCenter is the central information system used on 6R Series Tractors and is located on the right-hand console. The GS3 CommandCenter allows the operator to program various settings and tailor the readings to a specific operation.

The 178-mm (7-in.) color display is divided into three regions: left-hand, center, and right-hand. The left-hand region can be configured by the operator to monitor three tractor functions of their choice. The right-hand region shows the shortcut keys to desired information. Operators can program additional shortcut keys that will appear in the right-hand region. The center region either shows the main home pages or displays the information relative to the current settings the operator is adjusting.

Triple-Link Suspension (TLS™) Plus suspended front axle provides operator comfort and power to the ground

TLS Plus axle

TLS Plus provides higher operator comfort by reducing fatigue and increases productivity.

Available for all 6R Series Tractors, TLS Plus has the following features:

Self-leveling system with +/- 50-mm suspension travel under all axle load conditions.
Permanent engagement of axle suspension with automatic adjustment of the sensitivity and suspension rate for the axle load (from a heavy rear-mounted implement to heavy front loader work)
Up to 7 percent more power to the ground

TLS Plus modes on CommandCenter display

The TLS Plus features:

Auto mode: This mode is automatic progressive suspension rate adjustment, which prevents the risk of knocking on the suspension end stops even in the roughest conditions.
Max mode: For special application like pallet work or earthmoving, the hydraulic pressure in the TLS Plus system is increased and this reduces the movement of the suspension.
Manual mode: This mode is for lifting and lowering the front end of the tractor (for example, picking up a weight). This allows full manual control of the axle height to assist in mounting or dismounting front and rear implements.

TLS Plus with brakes

John Deere front axle brakes feature:

Increased braking capacity by utilizing additional brake discs in the front axle hubs.
Dual-circuit braking system for all models with separate front and rear brake circuits.
TLS Plus with brakes is required for 50K (31 mph) transmissions.

Adaptive Hydraulic Cab Suspension PLUS (HCS Plus) delivers operator comfort

Superior operator comfort

6R cab suspension

For operators wanting superior operator comfort and smoother driving, hydraulic cab suspension is available for the 6R Series Tractors. The hydraulic cab suspension provides enhanced comfort for the operator by reducing operator fatigue and discomfort, especially for jobs requiring long hours inside the cab.

The semi-active system automatically self-levels and adjusts to e.g. load changes and braking forces. The operator has three selectable modes: AUTO soft, AUTO medium, or hard (MAX). The soft mode always adjusts the cab suspension to highest comfort rating. The hard mode prevents cab pitch e. g. through front loader work. The medium mode allows operator to optimize cab suspension comfort for individual preferences.

In addition to having a smoother ride, the cab is more isolated against noise and vibrations from the engine, transmission, and chassis compared to the base equipment cab.

PowerTech™ PVX/PSX Stage III B Engine

Reliable and proven engine technology

John Deere 6R Series Tractors feature the reliable and proven PowerTech PVX/PSX engines. These air-to-air aspirated engines deliver constant power over a wide range of engine revolutions per minute (rpm) with a power bulge above rated power to provide excellent torque in demanding applications.

Engines deliver a constant power range of 30 percent with a power bulge of 10 percent.
High-pressure common rail (HPCR) fuel injection system and other key engine parts work together to sense engine load and then instantly respond as needed to pull through tough soil conditions.
Engine rpm fluctuations are reduced to minimize the need to downshift the transmission.
Fewer shifts results in less ground speed variations, providing higher overall tractor productivity.

To match the engine power characteristics and improve economy of operation, the rated engine speed is 2100 rpm.

The full frame concept

Engine integrated in full frame

The engine is an integrated part of the full frame concept. The engine is connected to the frame using vibration-absorbing isolators. Further vibration reduction is achieved by utilizing a heavy-duty torsional damper in the Cardan shaft, coupling the flywheel to the clutch housing.
This technique:

Eliminates engine block stress, because the engine is no longer a structural part of the tractor.
Reduces noise and vibration transfer to other tractor components.

Engine block

Engines feature a heavy-duty, high-quality gray iron block. The one-piece block design features generous internal webbing to provide sturdy engine structure. The block is further strengthened by circular truss ribs that serve as lower supports for wet cylinder liners.

To ensure a long vehicle life, engine cylinders are wet sleeve liners. In the event a repair is needed in long-term operation, the engine can easily be reconditioned to updated specifications.

The coolant manifold is full length for equal cooling capabilities across all cylinders.

Directed cooling

The PowerTech PVX 4.5L and 6.8L and PowerTech PSX engines feature directed cooling around the top of the cylinder liners.

Top liner cooling lowers temperatures at the top of the cylinder for durability of the piston and piston rings. This also allows the piston rings to be farther up on the piston, decreasing the amount of dead air in the combustion process, increasing efficiency, and lowering emissions.

The block rib design minimizes engine noise by stabilizing the cylinder liners.

Piston and rings

All PowerTech PVX and PSX 4.5L and 6.8L engines use aluminum pistons for high strength and resistance to wear. The large-diameter piston bowl with high-dome design works with the four-valve head to provide greater airflow with less restriction both in and out of the combustion chamber. This greatly improves economy and lowers exhaust emission levels.

Cooled, filtered oil is constantly sprayed on the underside of each piston. The low-friction piston design incorporates an integral directed oil galley, taking full advantage of the oil spray jet to improve piston and ring cooling, extending life.

The oil spray jet provides excellent underside piston dome cooling, as well as lubrication of the piston pin and pin bushing and cylinder wall lubrication. Oil spray nozzles are positioned on support ribs over main bearings to supply cooled and filtered oil to the pistons.

Connecting rods and piston pins

Piston pin features:

Full floating design utilizes all bearing surfaces of the pin for more even load distribution, even wear, and long life.
Large diameter and thick walls ensure maximum rigidity.
Highly polished and hardened surface of pin reduces wear.
Slip fit and retained in pistons by snap rings.

Wrist pin lubrication comes from high-volume piston spray jet.

Cylinder liners

Wet sleeved, flanged cylinder liners are made of compact graphite iron for greater strength and stiffness.

Directed top-liner cooling reduces oil consumption and enhances combustion efficiency by reducing wear in the top ring turnaround area and improving piston ring performance.

Crankshaft

A dynamically balanced crankshaft is constructed of heat-treated, high-carbon forged steel for maximum strength. Journal surfaces are induction hardened for long life.

A flanged-style thrust bearing is used for long life. Main crankshaft bearing caps are machined while fastened to the block to ensure precise crankshaft alignment.

The John Deere exclusive WEAR-GARD™ connecting rod bearing design increases lubricating oil film thickness in the bearing area, where high loads are present. This further improves durability and reliability.

Camshaft

The 6.8L engine uses a camshaft made from 1080 steel to provide the strength and durability required to operate four valves in each cylinder.

Six large camshaft bearing journal diameters are sized to handle the heavy-duty, four-valve head. Two additional camshaft bearings provide added strength and reliability. The camshaft lobe profile design is complemented by the intake and exhaust valve shapes and sizes for power and efficiency.

The initial valve lash adjustment is 2000 hours, then every 2000 hours thereafter.

Four-valve cylinder head

Additional four-valve cylinder head benefits are as follows:

Positions the injector in the center of the piston and combustion chamber for even piston loads and mixing of fuel
Maintains cooler head temperatures through a high rate of airflow
Raises the air-fuel ratio while reducing internal operating temperatures for improved reliability and fuel efficiency
Valves and replaceable valve seat inserts designed to minimize flow restriction (engine uses special powdered metal valve guide inserts with impregnated lubricant for proper seating and to prolong wear)
Offers excellent pull-through characteristics delivered by constant high torque
Allows faster field operating speeds

There is improved lugging ability throughout the entire working range with significant productivity improvements at low engine rpm.

The intake manifold is located above the exhaust manifold.

Location allows intake air to go directly down through the head with minimal turning to aid in engine breathing characteristics.

The engine width is not changed greatly, allowing for a narrow tractor hood and excellent row-crop visibility.

High-pressure common rail fuel injection system and engine control unit (ECU)

Every PowerTech PVX/PSX engine utilizes the high-pressure common rail (HPCR) fuel system to supply fuel to injectors. The high-pressure fuel pump instantly responds to requirements for more or less fuel flow or pressure. The pressure is generated by the gear-driven piston pump. This electronically controlled and high-pressure pump delivers pressure on demand according to the application requirements.

Benefits:

High-pressure common rail delivering exactly the same fuel pressure level at all of the injectors
High responsiveness under all load and speed conditions, which extends the engine working range to lower speeds, delivering more power and productivity in the field at outstanding fuel saving engine speeds
Performance-matched fuel consumption delivering reduced fuel costs per acre

The ECU uses signal inputs from sensors and pre-programmed performance modeling to control critical engine functions such as:

Fuel quantity
Injection timing
Air-to-fuel ratio
Multiple fuel injections
Amount of cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR)
A host of other control parameters to deliver peak fuel economy and engine performance

Each injector is controlled individually by the ECU. The ECU turns the injector on and off during each firing cycle to control the fuel delivery into each cylinder. The ECU can sense engine speed and load changes at a rate of 100 times per second and respond instantly to them. Load and speed sensing allows each cylinder’s fuel delivery rate to be adjusted independently at the individual injector. With each injection cycle, the ECU can make the following adjustments on the go:

Number of injections
Fuel pressure in the common rail
Start of injection
Duration of injection

This management system is connected to the transmission allowing the engine and transmission to respond simultaneously.

Cold-weather and high-altitude compensation are also precisely controlled for quality starts regardless of weather and proper power levels at high elevations.

Injectors

Injectors deliver the same fuel pressure level to cylinders from the high-pressure common rail:

Magnetic valve provides fast and precisely metered fuel injection.
Six-hole nozzles give optimum spray patterns and fine fuel atomization.

Performance-matched fuel consumption delivers reduced fuel costs per acre.

ComfortView™ cab features a modern, automotive-style instrument panel

Steering column control panel

Steering column on 6R Tractor

Dash instrument panel on 6R Tractor

ComfortView cabs feature a modern, automotive-style instrument panel as base equipment. The instrument pod has two large analog dials for engine and tractor speed, as well as two smaller dials that display fuel level and coolant temperature. The steering column and dash are adjustable to suit the operator's needs. The column tilts toward the operator and a lever on the left-hand side allows for the column to telescope out to the desired level.

A dimming mode automatically reduces the brightness of the instrument illumination when the tractor lights are used.

Instrumentation control panel

The instrumentation panel has a row of information and warning lights across the bottom to monitor all important tractor functions. A three-stage warning system first gives information, then gives warnings, and finally, gives a stop alarm to prevent damage from occurring in the event of a component malfunction. An integrated power take-off (PTO) over-speed warning is incorporated into the diagnostics to ensure proper operation.

Dash instrument panel controls
