The John Deere 6145R is a row-crop tractor manufactured in Waterloo, Iowa, between 2015 and 2021. It belongs to the 6R series, designed to provide high performance and versatility for a wide range of agricultural operations.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by the John Deere PowerTech PVS, a 6.8-liter, 6-cylinder turbocharged and aftercooled diesel engine. It delivers a rated power of 145 hp and a maximum gross power of 157 hp at 2100 rated RPM. The engine complies with Tier IV emission standards through the use of selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology.

Transmission and Drivetrain

The 6145R offers multiple transmission configurations to suit specific operational requirements, including the 16-speed PowerQuad PLUS, 20-speed AutoQuad PLUS, 24-speed DirectDrive ECO, and an infinitely variable transmission (IVT). It is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive variants, supported by hydraulic wet disc brakes and electro-hydraulic differential locks on both front and rear axles.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system features a closed-center, pressure and flow-compensated design. It provides a total pump flow of 30.1 gpm (113.9 lpm) and a pressure of 2900 psi. The rear three-point hitch is of category III/IIIN and is managed by an electronic lower link draft sensing system, offering a rear lift capacity of 9,193 lbs.

PTO and Operator Environment

The independent rear PTO is controlled via an electro-hydraulic clutch and supports 540/1000 RPM, with optional 540E speeds available. The operator station consists of a standard cab equipped with air conditioning to ensure comfort during extended periods of use.
