Introduction
John Deere 8295RT Agricultural Crawler Tractor
The John Deere 8295RT is a high-performance agricultural crawler tractor manufactured in Waterloo, Iowa, between 2009 and 2010. Designed for heavy-duty field operations, this tracked machine belongs to the 8000 series, providing significant traction and stability in demanding agricultural environments.
Engine and Power Output
The tractor is powered by a 9.0-liter displacement engine. It delivers a gross rated power of 295 hp (220.0 kW) at 2100 rated RPM, with a maximum gross power output of 322 hp (240.1 kW). The engine features a 16.3:1 compression ratio and uses dual paper elements for air filtration, operating efficiently within a range of 1500 to 2100 RPM.
Transmission and Drivetrain
The 8295RT offers two transmission options: a full power shift John Deere transmission providing 16 forward and 4 reverse gears, or an Infinitely Variable Transmission (IVT) for continuous speed control. Power is delivered through a crawler drive system featuring 25-inch tracks, which provides enhanced flotation and grip compared to traditional wheeled configurations.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system is a closed-center, pressure-flow compensated type, operating at a pressure of 2900 psi (200.0 bar). The main pump provides a flow of 35 gpm (132.5 lpm), with an optional configuration allowing for up to 60 gpm (227.1 lpm). The rear PTO is independent, utilizing a 1000 RPM (1-3/4 inch) shaft to drive various heavy implements.
