Introduction

John Deere 8335RT Agricultural Crawler Tractor

The John Deere 8335RT is a high-performance track-driven agricultural tractor manufactured in Waterloo, Iowa, between 2011 and 2013. It is designed for heavy-duty field operations, utilizing a crawler drive system to provide enhanced traction and stability.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by the John Deere PowerTech PSX, a 9.0-liter, 6-cylinder liquid-cooled inline engine. It features a 24-valve configuration and dual turbochargers. The engine provides a rated gross power of 335 hp (249.8 kW) and a maximum gross power of 369 hp (275.2 kW). An optional Intelligent Power Management (IPM) system is available, which can increase power output by 35 hp during specific applications. Emission control is managed via exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) to meet Stage IIIB and Interim Tier IV standards.

Transmission and Drive

The 8335RT utilizes a crawler drive system for optimal ground contact and is steered via an electro-hydraulic power system. Operators can choose between two transmission options: the 16-speed John Deere Automatic PowerShift, which is a full power shift transmission, or the John Deere AutoPowr, an infinitely variable transmission (IVT) that allows for seamless speed adjustments.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system is a closed-center, pressure-flow compensated type, delivering a total flow of 60 gpm (227.1 lpm) at a pressure of 2900 psi (200.0 bar). It supports 3 to 5 rear valves. The rear hitch is a 4N/3 category type, with a lift capacity of 19,300 lbs (8,754 kg) for 2011 models and 20,000 lbs (9,072 kg) for 2012-2013 units.

Operator Environment

The tractor is equipped with the CommandView II cab as standard. This environment is designed for operator comfort during extended work intervals and includes integrated heating and air-conditioning systems.

Conclusion

With its robust crawler design, high-capacity hydraulics, and choice of power-shift or infinitely variable transmissions, the John Deere 8335RT is engineered for demanding large-scale agricultural tasks requiring maximum traction and consistent power delivery.
