Removing and Installing Wheels

Avoid injury! Remove wheels safely.

• Use a safe lifting device and support machine securely on jackstands.

• Block front and rear of wheel not raised to prevent machine movement.

• Wheel can be heavy or difficult to handle when removing.

Front Wheel Removal

1. Loosen lug bolts slightly before raising front axle.

2. Raise front of machine and lower onto support stands, so that front axle supports machine.

3. NOTE:

   If the front wheels are being removed to perform work on the front axles, lower machine onto suitable stands that support the machine by the frame.

   Remove lug bolts and wheel.

Front Wheel Installation

1. Install wheels onto axle, insert lug bolts, and lightly tighten bolts.

2. Raise front of machine, remove support stands and lower machine to floor.

3. Tighten wheel bolts in a star pattern to 140 N·m (103 lb.-ft.).

Rear Wheel Removal

1. Loosen lug bolts slightly before raising machine rear axle.

2. Raise rear of machine and lower onto support stands so that rear axle supports machine.

3. Remove lug bolts and wheel.

Rear Wheel Installation

1. Install wheels onto axle, insert lug bolts, and partially tighten bolts.

2. Raise rear of machine, remove support stands, and lower machine to floor.

3. Tighten wheel bolts in a star pattern to 140 N·m (103 lb.-ft.).

Changing Wheel Spacing and Tread Width

In special cases, front tires can be set to wide position; however, wide position cannot be used with a loader. Using wide position during loader operation reduces front axle life.

Rear tires can be mounted in one position only.

Avoid injury! Remove wheels safely.

• Use a safe lifting device and support machine securely on jackstands.

• Block front and rear of wheel not raised to prevent machine movement

• Wheel can be heavy or difficult to handle when removing.

Mounting Guidelines

• To keep tire rotation in right direction, move each rim to opposite side of machine, rather than turning rim around.

• Dished wheels can be reversed.

• Tighten all bolts to specifications.

• Wide position—Install wheel with valve stem to the inside.

• Narrow position—Install wheel with valve stem to the outside.

Rear Wheel Positions

For eight position wheels, the mounting flanges on the rear rims are closer to one edge of the rim than the other, allowing the inner wheels to be mounted in different positions. By changing this position of the wheel on the rim, up to eight different tread widths can be achieved on some machines.

Various positions cannot be used because the tires would strike the fenders. Certain other positions may result in equal tread widths.

Tread width is measured from centerline-to-centerline of each tire.

  If not using any of the preferred greases, be sure to use a general all-purpose grease with an NLGI grade No. 2 rating.

  Wet or high-speed conditions may require a special-use grease. Contact your Servicing dealer for information.

The following lubricant is preferred:

• SUPER LUBE® lubricant. [ SUPER LUBE is a registered trademark of Synco Chemical Corp. ]

Avoid Static Electricity Risk When Refueling

The removal of sulfur and other compounds in Ultra-Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel decreases its conductivity and increases its ability to store a static charge.

Refineries may have treated the fuel with a static dissipating additive. However, there are many factors that can reduce the effectiveness of the additive over time.

Static charges can build up in ULSD fuel while it is flowing through fuel delivery systems. Static electricity discharge when combustible vapors are present could result in a fire or explosion.

Therefore, it is important to ensure that the entire system used to refuel your machine (fuel supply tank, transfer pump, transfer hose, nozzle, and others) is properly grounded and bonded. Consult with your fuel or fuel system supplier to ensure that the delivery system is in compliance with fueling standards for proper grounding and bonding practices.

-: Machine Troubleshooting

Testing Coolant Freeze Point

The use of a handheld coolant refractometer is the quickest, easiest, and most accurate method to determine coolant freeze point. This method is more accurate than a test strip or a float-type hydrometer which can produce poor results.

A coolant refractometer is available through your John Deere dealer under the SERVICEGARD ™ tool program. Part number 75240 provides an economical solution to accurate freeze point determination in the field.

To use this tool:

1. Allow cooling system to cool to ambient temperatures.

2. Open radiator cap to expose coolant.

3. With the included dropper, collect a small coolant sample.

4. Open the lid of the refractometer, place one drop of coolant on the window and close the lid.

5. Look through the eyepiece and focus as necessary.

6. Record the listed freeze point for the type of coolant (ethylene glycol coolant or propylene glycol) being tested.

Cleaning Hood Vents

Avoid damage! Hood vents must be kept free of debris and obstruction to allow for adequate air flow.

1. Park machine safely. (See Parking Safely in Safety section.)

2. Allow engine to cool.

3. Raise hood.

4. Check exhaust vent (A) and engine hood vent (B) for obstruction or debris.

5. Check vent area for any obstructions.

6. Lower hood.

Filling Fuel Tank

Avoid injury! Fuel vapors are explosive and flammable:

• Shut engine off before filling fuel tank.

• Allow engine to cool before refueling.

• Do not smoke while handling fuel.

• Keep fuel away from flames or sparks.

• Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well ventilated area.

• Clean up spilled fuel immediately.

• Use clean approved non-metal container to prevent static electric discharge.

Avoid damage! Dirt and water in fuel can cause engine damage:

• Clean dirt and debris from the fuel tank opening.

• Use clean, fresh, stabilized fuel.

• Fill the fuel tank at the end of each day’s operation to keep condensation out of the fuel tank.

• Use a non-metallic funnel with a plastic mesh strainer when filling the fuel tank or container.

Fill fuel tank at the end of each day’s operation to prevent condensation and freezing during cold weather.

Forward or Backward: Lift forward/backward adjustment lever (B) up to move seat to desired position.

Raising and Lowering Roll-Over Protective Structure (ROPS)

Avoid injury! Always wear seat belt when operating machine with folding roll-over protective structure (ROPS) in upright position. Do not jump from machine if machine tips.

If ROPS must be folded to operate in a low clearance area, do not use seat belt. Raise ROPS and use seat belt as soon as conditions permit.

If canopy or sunshade is attached to the ROPS structure, the weight MUST be limited to 100 lb (45 kg) or less.

Lowering ROPS Crossbar

1. Remove spring locking pin (A) and drilled pin (B) on each side of the ROPS.

2. Carefully lower ROPS crossbar (C) until holes are exposed enough to insert drilled pins (B).

3. Install drilled pins (B) and spring locking pins (A) and lower crossbar (C) onto drilled pins (B).

Raising ROPS Crossbar

1. Raise the crossbar just enough to remove spring locking pins (A) and drilled pins (B) on each side of the ROPS.

2. Carefully raise ROPS crossbar (C) to the operating position.

3. Align crossbar bracket holes with support bracket holes on each side of the ROPS.

4. Install drilled pins (B) and spring locking pins (A) to lock crossbar (C) in the raised position.

Ballasting Machine

Avoid injury! Ballasted machine can become unstable when attachment is raised. Always drive slowly over uneven ground and when turning with raised attachment.

Avoid damage! Do not overload tires. Do not exceed tire maximum inflation pressure or maximum load capacity.

Add weight to machine front end if needed for stability. Heavy pulling and heavy rear-mounted implements tend to lift front wheels. Add enough ballast to maintain steering control and prevent roll-over. Remove weight when it is no longer needed.

Avoid damage! Remove ballast from machine when no longer needed.

Ballasting Two-Wheel Drive

Add weight to front end if needed for stability. Heavy pulling and heavy rear-mounted implements tend to lift front wheels. Add enough ballast to maintain steering control and prevent tip-over. The ideal weight split is 30% front, 70% rear, of total tractor weight.

Refer to the implement operator's manual, along with ”Use Implement Codes” in this section, to determine the minimum number of front weights that are required for your tractor model.

Ballasting MFWD-Equipped Tractors

Ideal tire slippage for MFWD-equipped tractors is 8—12%. To reduce wheel slip to this level, more weight is needed on the front than with two-wheel-drive tractors. The ideal weight split is 40% front, 60% rear, of total tractor weight. In some cases liquid ballast will be needed in front tires to obtain this weight split.

If equipped with a loader, provide adequate ballast to rear wheels.

Implement codes are used to determine proper ballast for stability and steering control. Refer to the implement code in your implement operator's manual, along with ”Use Implement Codes” in this section, to determine the minimum number of front weights that are required for your tractor model. In some cases, additional front ballast is required for optimum field performance. If more assistance is needed, see your John Deere dealer.

Implement Codes

Use the following tables to determine the number of front weights to use with John Deere implements. Implement code data can be found in the ballasting section of the implement operator’s manual.

Match the implement code from the implement manual with the codes for your machine and type of hitch. If the code falls between two numbers in the table, use the next higher number for the number of front weights to use with that implement.

These codes are for ideal conditions. Actual field conditions can require additional ballast. Some John Deere implements require using a certain number of front weights rather than giving implement codes.

Maximum allowable ballasted weight is 4000 kg (8820 lb.)

-: Ballast Tables

Tire Capacities

Avoid damage! Do not overload tires. Do not exceed tire maximum inflation pressure or maximum load capacity.

If necessary ballast exceeds tire load capacity, reduce load or install other tires.

Operate at reduced loads. If MFWD is engaged with tires at maximum air pressure, front axle damage may result.

See tire maximum inflation pressure and maximum load capacities in the Specifications section.

Verify maximum tire inflation pressure and maximum load information if embossed into the tire side wall.

Using Optional Rear Cast Iron Wheel Weights

Avoid damage! Do not overload tires. Do not exceed tire maximum inflation pressure or maximum load capacity.

Avoid injury! Machine component or attachment is heavy. Use a safe lifting device or get an assistant to help lift, install, or remove component or attachment.

1. Mount rear wheels in the wide position for improved stability.

2. Fasten weight to each rear wheel using a safe lifting device. A total of three weights per wheel can be used. See your implement operator’s manual for installation and number of weights to use.

Using Optional Rear Ballast Box

Avoid injury! To improve front loader-machine stability, use of ballast box is recommended. Use ballast as recommended in loader operator’s manual.

Avoid damage! Do not overload tires. Do not exceed tire maximum inflation pressure or maximum load capacity.

The rear ballast box is used for carrying ballast on the 3-point hitch. Approximate weight of different materials is given in the implement operator’s manual.

Using Liquid Weight in Tires

Avoid damage! Cover rim completely with solution to avoid corrosion, but never more than 90% full. More solution would leave too little air space to absorb shocks. Damage to tire could occur.

Use of alcohol as ballast is not recommended. Calcium chloride solution is heavier and more economical.

A solution of water and calcium chloride provides safe economical ballast, and prevents freezing. If used properly, it will not damage tires, tubes, or rims.

A mixture of 0.4 kg of calcium chloride per liter of water (3.5 lb./gal.), prevents freezing solid above —45°C (—50°F).

Fill tubeless tires at least to valve stem level (minimum 75% full). Less solution would expose part of rim, possibly causing corrosion.

Tube-type tires can be filled to any level below 90%.

Optional Front Weights and Front Weight Bracket Extension

Avoid damage! Do not install weights on front bumper plate. Damage to the front grille can occur. Use optional bolt-on weight bracket for front weights.

Quik-Tatch ™ weights and attaching hardware are available at your John Deere dealer. Each weight is 19 kg (42 lb.) or 32 kg (70 lb.).

See your implement operator’s manual for installation and required number of weights to use.

An optional front weight bracket extension kit (A) is available at your John Deere dealer. This optional front weight bracket extension kit holds up to ten Quik-Tatch weights.

Connecting Implement Hydraulic Hoses

Avoid injury! Escaping fluid under high pressure can penetrate the skin and cause serious injury. Avoid the hazard by relieving pressure before connecting hydraulic or other lines. Tighten all connections before applying pressure.

• Search for leaks with a piece of cardboard. Protect hands and body from high-pressure fluids.

• If an accident occurs, see a doctor immediately. Any fluid injected into the skin must be surgically removed within a few hours or gangrene may result. Doctors unfamiliar with this type of injury should reference a knowledgeable medical source. Such information is available from Deere & Company Medical Department in Moline, Illinois, U.S.A. In the United States and Canada only, this information may be obtained by calling 1-800-822-8262.

1. Park machine safely. (See Parking Safely in the Safety section.)

2. Relieve hydraulic pressure:

   • Move dual selective control valve (SCV) lever rearward-to-forward and side-to-side several times.

   • With key switch on, activate the third SCV upper and lower switches several times (if equipped).

   
   

3. See your implement operator’s manual for specific instructions on connecting hydraulic hoses to couplers. Install hose ends in couplers with matching colors.

   • Colors for the couplers are shown on the label installed on the machine near the couplers.

   
   

4. See your implement operator’s manual for specific instructions on operating SCV controls.

Avoid damage! To prevent contamination of female quick couplers, color-coded hose ends should be installed in the couplers when not being used.

Automatic (AUTO) Exhaust Filter Cleaning—If Equipped

Automatic exhaust filter cleaning is started when soot in the exhaust filter reaches a certain level. This occurs less frequently if the engine is operated for long periods under conditions where passive exhaust filter cleaning takes place. Automatic exhaust filter cleaning is initiated and performed without any intervention on the part of the operator.

If the system determines that soot buildup in the exhaust filter requires cleaning, an automatic cleaning is initiated and performed without any intervention on the part of the operator. High exhaust temperature indicator (A) remains illuminated during the exhaust filter cleaning.

Do not disable automatic exhaust filter cleaning unless it is absolutely necessary.

To prevent fires, be sure to routinely clear any combustible materials (crop debris, animal nests, etc.) from the area of the engine and exhaust filter. Exhaust filter cleaning uses extremely high temperature.

See also Clean Exhaust Filter Safely in the Safety section.

Parked Exhaust Filter Cleaning—If Equipped

If operator disregards indicators and continues to operate vehicle without allowing an automatic cleaning, engine performance is reduced. A parked exhaust filter cleaning procedure must be performed.

The following occurs when exhaust filter becomes restricted:

• Service alert and exhaust filter cleaning indicators (on dash) are illuminated.

• Engine power is reduced.

At this time, a parked exhaust filter cleaning is required.

Before a parked exhaust filter cleaning can be completed, the following criteria must be met:

• Set engine rpm at low idle.

• Coolant temperature must be above 60°C (140°F).

• Transmission must be in neutral.

• Zero ground speed commanded.

• Park brake must be engaged.

• PTO must be turned off.

1. CAUTION:

   Comply with Clean Exhaust Filter Safely in the Safety section.

   IMPORTANT:

   Select a suitable space to park the machine and lower all implements to the ground.

   No other machine functions can be used while exhaust filter cleaning is taking place with the machine parked. Excluded from this are functions that are required for an emergency shutdown of the machine.

   Do not start exhaust filter cleaning if the fuel gauge has been showing a low fuel level for a long time.

   LV17599-UN: Exhaust Filter Cleaning Switch - Parked modeLV17600-UN: Parked Cleaning In ProcessLEGEND: A - Parked Cleaning PositionB - High Exhaust Temperature IndicatorC - Information DisplayD - Filter Cleaning Disable SwitchPress and hold the exhaust filter cleaning switch in the parked cleaning position (A) for 5 seconds; LED above the switch will start blinking if all conditions are met. Release, then push for another 3 seconds; the icon should remain lit.
   IMPORTANT:

   If cancellation of a parked exhaust filter cleaning process is necessary, your best option is to push filter cleaning disable switch (D).

   CAUTION:

   Only stop engine if absolutely necessary due to heat build up in the engine compartment.

2. The engine speed elevates to 2200 rpm.

3. During the parked cleaning process, the high exhaust temperature indicator (B) and the LED above the parked cleaning symbol (A) illuminate.

4. When the parked cleaning process is complete, the LED above the parked cleaning symbol switch turns off. High exhaust temperature indicator (B) remains on for 30 seconds after completion and the engine speed returns to low idle.

5. After high exhaust temperature indicator (B) turns off, continue machine operations as normal.

   NOTE:

   The system defaults to automatic (AUTO) exhaust filter cleaning mode.

   If not returning machine to operation, allow engine time to return to normal operating temperature before stopping engine.

If operator disregards indicators and continues to operate machine without allowing a parked cleaning, engine performance is reduced. A service exhaust cleaning procedure by a John Deere dealer is required.

Service Exhaust Filter Cleaning—If Equipped

Repeated cancellation or ignoring indicators to perform a parked exhaust filter cleaning causes additional engine power limitations, which eventually lead to a dealer required service.

When STOP indicator (A) and exhaust filter cleaning indicator (B) are illuminated at the same time, contact your John Deere dealer.

Automatic exhaust filter cleaning and parked exhaust filter cleaning are no longer possible at this time.

If the tractor is switched off after this icon appears, it will not reappear immediately if the engine is restarted, and the tractor is briefly capable of operating, albeit with reduced power. This action is intentional; the intention being to allow the dealer to perform service cleaning.

Tips for avoiding service cleaning:

• Do not disable exhaust filter cleaning unless absolutely necessary.

• Avoid unnecessary idling.

• Do not interrupt cleaning process unless absolutely necessary.

• If possible, do not shut off the engine while the exhaust filter cleaning indicator light is on.

• Take note of information displayed for the operator, and act accordingly.

Measurement method in accordance with Directive 2009/63/EC (2)

Cab Classification According to EN 15695-1 (when Applying Plant Protection Products and Liquid Fertilizers)

Cab classification according to EN 15695-1 provides information on the effectiveness of protection against harmful substances offered by the cab.

Categories 1 to 4 are used for classification and specified on a label inside the cab.

Replace label if missing or damaged. See your John Deere dealer.

Category 1 — The cab does not offer any protection against substances which are harmful to health.

Category 2 — The cab offers protection against solid airborne particles such as dust, but not against aerosols and vapors.

Category 3 — The cab offers protection against dust and aerosols (liquid airborne substances such as spray), but not against vapors.

Category 4 — The cab offers protection against dust, aerosols and vapors.

Before working in an environment containing hazardous substances, i.e. when using pesticides, check whether the cab offers sufficient protection. Refer to the product data sheets of the spraying liquid manufacturer specifying the category required for the cab.

In case of category 3 and 4 cabs, find out whether the installed filters have been checked according to EN 156952: 2009 and whether they are suitable for the chemical being used (refer to the manufacturer’s information) before working in an environment containing hazardous substances.

The cab air filters must be serviced as specified. See Section Lubrication and Periodic Service or Service As Required and Service Once a Year in this Operator’s Manual.

Refer to product data sheets and product identification of the crop protection chemicals. These contain important information on how to avoid hazards.

The following requirements must be met to offer best protection:

1. All seals (on door, windows and roof) in good condition

2. Doors, windows and roof closed

3. Grommets for cables in the cab sealed properly

4. Fan ON

5. Cab air filters in good condition

Diesel Fuel

Use the proper diesel fuel to help prevent decreased engine performance and increased exhaust emissions. Failure to follow the fuel requirements listed below can void your engine warranty.

Consult your local fuel distributor for properties of the diesel fuel in your area.

In general, diesel fuels are blended to satisfy the low temperature requirements of the geographical area in which they are marketed.

Diesel fuels specified to ISO EN 590 or ASTM D975 are recommended.

Required fuel properties

In all cases, the fuel shall meet the following properties:

Cetane number of 45 minimum. Cetane number greater than 50 is preferred, especially when temperatures are below -20°C (-4°F) or elevations above 1500 m (5000 ft).

Cold Filter Plugging Point (CFPP) should be at least 5°C (9°F) below the expected lowest temperature or Cloud Point below the lowest ambient temperature.

Fuel lubricity should comply with ISO EN 590 or ASTM D975.

Avoid damage! Improper fuel additive usage may cause damage on fuel injection equipment of diesel engines.

If a fuel of low or unknown lubricity is used, addition of John Deere PREMIUM DIESEL FUEL CONDITIONER at the specified concentration is recommended.

Sulfur content

• Diesel fuel quality and fuel sulfur content must comply with all existing emissions regulations for the area in which the engine operates.

• (4049M/4049R) Use diesel (ULSD) fuel with a maximum of 0.5% (5000 mg/kg) sulfur content.

• (4066M/4066R) Use only ultra low sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuel with a maximum of 0.0015% (15mg/kg) sulfur content.

Avoid injury! Do not mix diesel engine oil or any other type of lubricating oil with diesel fuel.

Using Bio-Diesel Fuel

Bio-diesel fuels may be used only if the bio-diesel fuel properties meet the latest edition of ASTM D6751, ASTM D7467, EN14214, or equivalent specification.

(4049M/4049R) The current maximum allowable bio-diesel concentration is a 7% blend (also known as B7) in petroleum diesel fuel.

(4066M/4066R) The current maximum allowable bio-diesel concentration is a 20% blend (also known as B20) in petroleum diesel fuel.

To learn of any changes to the recommendations for bio-diesel usage with your diesel engine, ask your John Deere dealer.

Handling and Storing Diesel Fuel

Avoid injury! Handle fuel carefully. Do not fill the fuel tank when engine is running.

Do not smoke while you fill the fuel tank or service the fuel system.

Avoid damage! Do not use galvanized containers—diesel fuel stored in galvanized containers reacts with zinc coating in the container to form zinc flakes. If fuel contains water, a zinc gel will also form. The gel and flakes will quickly plug fuel filters and damage fuel injectors and fuel pumps.

• Fill the fuel tank at the end of each day’s operation to prevent water condensation and freezing during cold weather.

• When fuel is stored for an extended period or if there is a slow turnover of fuel, add a fuel conditioner to stabilize the fuel and to prevent water condensation. Contact your fuel supplier for recommendations.

Engine Oil

Use oil viscosity based on the expected air temperature range during the period between oil changes.

The following John Deere oils are preferred:

• PLUS-50™ II

• TORQ-GARD SUPREME™

Other oils may be used if above John Deere oils are not available, provided they meet the following specification:

(4049M/4049R) Specifications.

• API service classification CD, CF, CF-4, CI-4 or CJ-4

• ACEA service classification E-3, E-4, E-5 or E-6

• JASO service classification DH-1 or DH-2

(4066M/4066R) Specifications.

• API Service Classification CJ-4

• ACEA service classification E-6 or E9

• JASO service classification DH-2

Diesel fuel quality and fuel sulfur content must comply with all existing emissions regulations for the area in which the engine operates.

Changing Transmission Oil and Hydraulic Suction Oil Filter

Avoid injury! Touching hot surfaces can burn skin. The engine, components, and fluids are hot when engine has been running. Allow the engine to cool before servicing or working near the engine and components.

Avoid damage! If there is evidence of severe oil contamination, it may be necessary to change the oil several times.
