Introduction
John Deere 8R 310 Row-Crop Tractor
The John Deere 8R 310 is a high-capacity row-crop tractor manufactured in Waterloo, Iowa, representing the performance segment of the 8R series. Introduced in 2019, this four-wheel-drive machine is engineered to handle heavy-duty agricultural operations with high power demands.
Engine and Performance
The tractor is powered by a 9.0-liter, 6-cylinder liquid-cooled turbocharged diesel engine. It features an electronic high-pressure common rail fuel system and meets Tier IV emission standards. The engine provides a rated power of 310 hp (231.2 kW) and reaches a maximum gross power of 341 hp (254.3 kW).
Transmission and Drivetrain
Operators can choose between three transmission configurations to suit specific tasks: a 16-speed full power shift, a 23-speed e23 full power shift, or an infinitely variable transmission (IVT). Power is delivered to the ground via a four-wheel-drive system, supported by power steering and inboard planetary final drives.
Hydraulics and PTO
The hydraulic system utilizes a closed-center, pressure-flow compensated design. It delivers a standard pump flow of 60 gpm (227.1 lpm), with an optional capacity of 84 gpm (317.9 lpm), operating at a pressure of 2958 psi. The rear independent PTO offers 1000 rpm operation, including an economy setting for fuel efficiency.
Hitch and Capacity
For implement management, the tractor is equipped with a Category IVN/III rear hitch featuring electro-hydraulic draft sensing, providing a lift capacity of 20,000 lbs (9,072 kg) at 24 inches. An optional front hitch with 11,464 lbs (5,200 kg) lift capacity is also available for increased versatility.
Conclusion
The John Deere 8R 310 is designed for large-scale agricultural operations requiring high horsepower, advanced hydraulic precision, and operator comfort.
