The John Deere 6310 is a utility tractor manufactured in Mannheim, Germany, between 1999 and 2002. Designed for versatility, this model served as a core component of the 6010 series, offering a balance of power and maneuverability for diverse agricultural tasks.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a John Deere 4045TL055 engine. This 4.5-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel unit produces a gross power output of 99 hp (73.8 kW). It operates at a rated speed of 2300 RPM and delivers a maximum torque of 303 lb-ft (410.9 Nm) at 1400 RPM, providing steady lugging capability under load.

The tractor is available in both two-wheel and four-wheel drive variants.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center, pressure-flow compensating design capable of delivering a pump flow of up to 25.4 gpm (96.1 lpm) at a pressure of 2900 psi. This allows for efficient operation of modern implements. The independent rear PTO supports both 540 and 540/1000 RPM speeds, ensuring compatibility with various power-driven machinery.
