Introduction

John Deere 9560R Four-Wheel Drive Tractor

The John Deere 9560R is a high-capacity four-wheel drive tractor produced between 2012 and 2014 in Waterloo, Iowa, USA. Designed for large-scale agricultural operations, this machine belongs to the 9R series, focusing on heavy-duty traction and high-output performance.

Engine and Power

The tractor is powered by the John Deere PowerTech PSX engine, a 13.5-liter, 6-cylinder, 24-valve turbocharged diesel unit. It features electronic unit injectors and a Tier 4A emission control system utilizing exhaust gas recirculation. The engine delivers a rated gross power of 560 hp (417.6 kW) at 2100 RPM, reaching a maximum gross power of 616 hp (459.4 kW).

Transmission and Drivetrain

The drivetrain utilizes a full John Deere PowerShift transmission, providing 18 forward and 6 reverse gears. Power is transferred to the ground via a four-wheel drive system equipped with a fully-locking electro-hydraulic differential lock to ensure traction. Braking is managed by hydraulic wet disc brakes, and final drives consist of an inboard planetary system with double-reduction axles.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system is a closed-center, pressure-flow compensated setup, delivering a standard pump flow of 48 gpm (181.7 lpm), with an optional high-flow configuration reaching 78 gpm (295.2 lpm). The rear hitch is a Category 4N/4 system featuring electronic draft sensing, complemented by a Category 5 heavy-duty drawbar with a 12,000-pound load rating.
