Introduction
John Deere 6155M Row-Crop Tractor
The John Deere 6155M is a row-crop tractor produced between 2015 and 2024 at the Mannheim facility in Germany. Part of the M-series, this machine is designed to provide reliable power and operational versatility for a wide range of agricultural tasks.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by the 6.8-liter John Deere PowerTech PVS, a 6-cylinder, 24-valve turbocharged and aftercooled diesel engine. It generates a rated gross power of 155 hp (115.6 kW) at 2100 RPM, with a maximum gross power output of 164 hp (122.3 kW). The engine complies with Tier IV emission standards through the use of cooled exhaust-gas recirculation, a diesel particulate filter, and selective catalytic reduction.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 6155M offers several transmission configurations, including the PowrQuad and AutoQuad PLUS systems. These transmissions utilize a four-speed power shift design available in 16-speed or 20-speed versions, all featuring a wet disc clutch and a left-hand power shuttle lever. The AutoQuad PLUS variant includes an AutoShift mode for programmable gear changes. The tractor is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive configurations.
Hydraulics and Hitch
Equipped with a closed-center, pressure-and-flow compensated hydraulic system, the 6155M delivers a pump flow of 30 gpm (113.6 lpm) at a pressure of 2900 psi (200.0 bar). The rear hitch is a category IIIN/II type with electronic lower-link draft sensing, capable of a lift capacity of 8198 lbs (3718 kg).
Operator Environment and Dimensions
The operator station features a standard cab equipped with air-conditioning, with an optional two-post folding ROPS version available. The tractor has a wheelbase of 108.9 inches (276 cm) and a total length of 186.1 inches (472 cm). It incorporates electro-hydraulic differential locks on both the front and rear axles to improve traction in field conditions.
Conclusion
The John Deere 6155M is a durable and highly configurable tractor suited for professional agricultural operations. Its combination of a high-torque 6-cylinder engine, varied transmission choices, and sophisticated hydraulic capabilities makes it a versatile solution for row-crop farming and heavy-duty field work.
