John Deere and Cummins have partnered to provide customers with a reliable, productive and efficient engine solution in the X15.  Extensive work has been done between John Deere and Cummins on software development and other engine/tractor application interface points to provide producers with the performance and efficiency they have come to expect from John Deere.

The X15 has followed the same building block approach to meet emissions requirements as similar John Deere engines.  This allows John Deere to provide common technologies to producers throughout different horsepower and engine displacement offerings ensuring a consistent experience for producers. Just like the other two engine offerings in the 9 Family of tractors, the X15 features exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and an exhaust aftertreatment combination of a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to meet the near-zero NOx and particulate matter (PM) emissions standards.

X15 technology

XPI fuel system
– the XPI common-rail fuel system delivers a precise quantity of fuel at ultra-high pressures. This, together with electronic engine controls, enables multiple injection events per cycle. Flexibility in injection timing increases fuel economy and performance while decreasing exhaust emissions.

VGT turbocharger – the X15 utilizes a single Cummins VGT™ turbocharger which features electric actuation for infinite adjustment.

Cooled EGR –system has been rebalanced for use with SCR, reducing flow volume and minimizing diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) consumption levels.

Fully integrated electronic controls – a single electronic control module (ECM) controls everything from air intake to exhaust aftertreatment.

Cummins particulate filter and SCR – Cummins particulate filter operates as a nearly passive device, with minimal regeneration required.

PTO and shieldPTO and shield

Fully independent 1000-rpm PTO is available as a factory- or field-installed option.

  • Available on all 9 Family Ag Tractors.
  • 4.45-cm (1-3/4-in.) diameter shaft.

 

9R – When the PTO is on and ground speed is 0.5km/h (0.31 mph) or less; PTO is limited to 335 hp.

9RT – When the PTO is on and ground speed is 0.5km/h (0.31 mph) or less; PTO is limited to 329 hp.

CommandARM™ controls
Hitch controlsHitch controls
Field-installed 3ā€“point hitch controls under armrest on CommandARMField-installed 3ā€“point hitch controls under armrest on CommandARM

To help boost productivity, a field-installed kit with 3-point hitch controls can be purchased. If this option is selected, control buttons will be located on the 9 Family Tractor’s CommmandARM to access individual hitch settings. There are three buttons — set, lock, and load depth. There is also a rotary encoder that allows for finite movements of the hitch. The rotary encoder is detented, so it clicks for each movement. Additionally, hitch adjustment controls are located under the CommandARM for raise/lower rate.

Hitch load depth

 

The load depth feature is a useful tool designed to increase performance in tillage applications. Load depth adjustments allow the operator to make adjustments to hitch draft responsiveness.

 

Draft control helps maintain the operating depth in varying conditions, such as rolling terrain, and varying soil densities.

 

An additional feature with load depth control is the hitch slip option.  Hitch slip uses wheel slip data to supplement the draft control system. If the wheels slip, the 3-point hitch lifts to allow the tractor wheels to maintain traction with the ground. Once the slip condition is no longer present, the hitch lowers to the required depth as determined by the hitch command and load depth settings.

 

Both of these hitch command options are easily programmable in the CommandCenter display by pressing the load depth shortcut key, followed by using the thumbwheel and confirm key to dial in the desired settings.

Hitch, external remote control switch

For added operator convenience, a 3-point hitch remote control switch is located on top of the left rear fender for 9R, 9RT, and 9RX Tractors. The external remote switches enable the operator to raise and lower the 3-point hitch from behind the tractor while hooking to implements.

Dual hydraulic pump system
Selective control valve (SCV) stackSelective control valve (SCV) stack

Optional high-flow hydraulics are available on 9 Family Tractors by ordering code 3270. The high-flow hydraulic system provides an additional 215 L/min (57 gpm) of flow for a total of 435 L/min (115 gpm). This system is ideal for hydraulic fan motor demands. This system is recommended for agricultural implements with continuous flow requirements. When maximum hydraulic pump capacity is reached, multiple functions will continue to operate at the same proportional flow rate.

The 9 Family Ag High-Flow Tractors have two parallel hydraulic systems. The benefit of this system is that functions can be split between the two systems. Functions that require high flow and low pressure can be combined on one system (for example, air seeder fans, and planter motors). Functions that require high pressure and low-flow can be connected to the remaining system (for example, implement lift, fold, and constant down-pressure systems).

Following these guidelines allows the hydraulic system to run cooler as it prevents both hydraulic pumps from running at high pressure. In general, pumps forced to run at both high pressure and high flows generate much more heat than a pump running at a lower flow or lower pressure.

The system operates with two hydraulic pumps:

  • Pump 1 - provides hydraulic flow of up to 215 L/min (58 gpm) to SCVs 1, 2, and 3. These SCVs are useful for operating lift/lower and other cylinder type hydraulic needs.
  • Pump 2 - attaches in front of pump 1 and provides hydraulic flow of up to 215 L/min (57 gpm) to SCVs 4, 5, and 6. These SCVs are useful for operating hydraulic motors to drive air/fan or vacuum systems on seeding/planting equipment.
  • All SCV oil returns to one common hydraulic reservoir.
Eight-section SCV stack for high-flow requirements
Five 1.3-cm (1/2-in.) couplers (A) and three 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers (B)Five 1.3-cm (1/2-in.) couplers (A) and three 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers (B)

For applications requiring continuous high hydraulic flow or multiple 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) hydraulic connections, this SCV stack is designed to maximize efficiency of the hydraulic system while providing additional flow using 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers. Arrangement of the 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers are split between the tractor’s dual hydraulic pumps to even the hydraulic load on each pump. Increasing coupler size from 1.3 cm (1/2 in.) to 1.9 cm (3/4 in.) allows an additional 26.5 L/min (7 gpm) or 17 percent more hydraulic flow through each coupler and reduces backpressure for hydraulic functions such as dual fan motors associated with the Air Power™ 2 system equipped on John Deere C850 Air Carts. With three 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers available, operators can connect to other high-demand functions such as raise/lower. The 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers also allow higher fan motor speeds for high-rate applications and allow more power to the ground due to less restriction on the hydraulic system.

 

NOTE: This SCV configuration is available on all double-reduction) axle 9420R to 9570R Tractors with high-flow hydraulics and all 9RX Tractors with high-flow hydraulics. This eight-section SCV stack does not include hydraulic Intelligent Power Management (IPM) software.

Operating modes

The e18 application settings employ three modes to take full advantage of the engine-transmission communication: Full AUTO mode, custom mode, and manual mode.

Full AUTO mode
Full AUTO main pageFull AUTO main page

Full AUTO mode manages the tractor’s engine and transmission inputs to reach and maintain the desired ground speed set by the operator. This means the tractor will manage shifts and engine rpm to operate at the most efficient level possible. Operators have the ability to set the maximum forward and reverse speeds for their particular applications. In full AUTO mode the operator can adjust the desired ground speed in two ways, by conducting a traditional bump shift or by rotating the dial on the thumb wheel.

When shifting in full AUTO mode, the transmission shifts set speeds and does not always shift gears, meaning the transmission may not necessarily shift gears if it can reach the desired ground speed with a slightly higher or lower engine rpm. Efficiency Manager is automatically engaged while operating in full AUTO mode. As a result, shifting will not take the tractor out of Efficiency Manager in full AUTO mode.

Custom mode
e18 custom transmission pagee18 custom transmission page

Custom mode operates similar to full AUTO mode but allows operators to adjust operating parameters to meet a specific operation. It also has the ability to activate eco mode for a higher level of operation.

Eco buttonEco button
Display screenDisplay screen

Eco allows two minimum engine speeds to be set. Operators can turn eco on and off by either pushing the eco button on the side of the throttle or by selecting eco in the transmission settings page of the CommandCenter controls. For example, operators may choose to turn eco on during transport to utilize a lower minimum engine speed and then turn eco off while operating in the field where a higher minimum engine speed is desired.

Efficiency Manager
Set speed buttons and set speed adjusterSet speed buttons and set speed adjuster

Efficiency Manager is automatically enabled in auto and custom modes. Efficiency Manager can be turned on in manual mode by selecting the set speed one or set speed two button on the CommandARM™ console. The set speed adjuster on the top of the single-lever gear selector allows the operator to dial in the desired ground speed to establish set speed one or two. Once engaged, Efficiency Manager will manage the engine rpm and gear selection to maintain the desired working speed. To reach the desired set speed, the throttle must be set to full engine rpm.

Custom settings pageCustom settings page

In the advanced settings page, operators can customize the auto shift engine speed droop as a percentage of the full engine speed. In addition, the load anticipation feature can be enabled for the hitch engagement, hydraulic engagement, or both.

Manual mode
Manual mode operates very similarly to a traditional PowerShift transmission with Efficiency Manager.
In manual mode the operator manages the engine and transmission inputs by controlling the shift lever and hand throttle.

9RX Tractor with seeding hydraulic IPM9RX Tractor with seeding hydraulic IPM

9620R and 9620RX Ag Tractors will have the option of factory- or field-installed seeding hydraulic IPM. The seeding hydraulic IPM package contains both software and hardware components designed to increase the performance of tractors operating implements that require continuous hydraulic power, specifically the John Deere 60’ 1895 Separate Fertilizer Placement Drill, 76’ 1870 Air Hoe Drill, and C850 Air Cart.

 

Seeding hydraulic IPM provides an additional 18.6 kW (25 hp) in gears 5 through 18 and an additional 37.3 kW (50 hp) in gears 1 through 4 through an air seeding specific drivetrain protection schedule.

 

Rounding out the package is a dual-pump specific SCV stack, which includes eight total SCVs: three 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) SCVs and five 1.3-cm (1/2-in.) SCVs. The 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers allow for an additional 26.5-L/min (7-gpm) hydraulic oil flow, which reduces restriction to high-demand fan motors on air carts and frame raise/lower functions on large air drills. The 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers also allow higher fan motor speeds for high-rate applications and allow more power to the ground due to less restriction on the hydraulic system.

Enabling seeding hydraulic IPM

Features associated with seeding hydraulic IPM (horsepower increase though air seeding specific drivetrain protection) are enabled under the following operating conditions:

  • Any one SCV (5 through 8) is set to continuous-flow operation
  • Flow rate greater than 50 percent on continuous-flow SCV
More power available

Seeding hydraulic IPM provides a controlled power boost of up to 18.6 kW (25 engine hp) at rated engine speed (2100 RPM) in gears 5 through 18 and 37.3 kW (50 engine hp) in gears 1 through 4. Power increase is only provided when required and is designed to supplement the additional hydraulic power consumed by systems running dual fan motors such as the Air Power™ 2 system equipped on John Deere C850 Air Carts.

#
Air seeding-specific drivetrain protection schedule

An air seeding-specific drivetrain protection schedule will be followed when seeding hydraulic IPM operating conditions are met to deliver an increase in power in lower gears. The specific schedule is tuned to provide additional horsepower in lower gears during high-demand events such as traversing hills and towing large air drills/air cart combinations. Below is a comparison between a base model drivetrain protection schedule with SCV in continuous flow and air seeding-specific drivetrain protection schedule.

The hardware set is designed to maximize efficiency of the hydraulic system while providing additional flow through the use of 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers. Arrangement of the 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers are split between the tractors dual hydraulic pumps to even the hydraulic load on each pump. Increasing coupler size from 1.3 cm (1/2 in.) to 1.9 cm (3/4 in.) allows an additional 26.5 L/min (7 gpm) or 17 percent more hydraulic flow through each coupler and reduces backpressure for hydraulic functions such as dual fan motors associated with the Air Power 2 system equipped on John Deere C850 Air Carts. With three 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers available, operators can also connect to other high-demand functions such as raise/lower. The 1.9-cm (3/4-in.) couplers also allow higher fan motor speeds for high-rate applications and allow more power to the ground due to less restriction on the hydraulic system.

Refer to the operator's manual, sections 16 (CommandCenter™) and 25 (Operator Station), for additional information on ISO implements.

 

NOTE: If the harness is not in use, unplug it from the ISO 11783 location or plug the 4-pin connectors together on the harness.  If neither of these are done, implement CAN communication errors will occur.

Dual-beam radar emission horns Dual-beam radar emission horns
Dual-beam radar (tracks tractor shown)Dual-beam radar (tracks tractor shown)
Shield for dual radar beamShield for dual radar beam

In today’s agricultural environment, accuracy and precision are more important than ever. For something as basic as ground speed, operators need key information for precise control of various implements and the tractor. To support these needs, tractors can be ordered with a dual-beam radar unit as a factory- or field-installed option.

 

There are several key features that have changed from previous designs.

 

First, there are two horns for exit of the radio beam. This dual-beam design assures a powerful and accurate signal that will cut through interference that at times makes single-beam units inaccurate. (See 1 in the image above for beam locations.) Dual-beam output makes radar less susceptible to hard surface or tall/wavy grass interference.

 

Accuracy is aided by a heavy-gauge mounting bracket and rubber isolators that reduce chances that vibration can affect the radio signal.

 

Dual-beam radar has a fast update rate. When the tractor comes to a stop, accelerates, or varies speed, the indicated ground speed on the tractor display will closely match the actual ground speed. This is important for implements that use radar speed to control operation such as planters, seeders, fertilizer applicators, and sprayers.

In addition, the dual-beam radar does not require calibration to assure accuracy. Its self-calibrating ability is sure to save setup time by elimination of a special procedure that was required in the past.

 

The radar true ground speed sensor activates the following CommandCenterTM display or performance monitor readouts:

  • Percent slip
  • Hitch slip command (if equipped)


Radar usage improves the accuracy of the following CommandCenter or performance monitor functions:

  • Area covered
  • Area/hour
  • Distance and ground speed

Dual-beam units are compatible with controller area network (CAN) bus and International Organization for Standardization (ISO) bus electrical systems.

The severe-duty water separator factory-installed option or field-installed kit is available for locations where fuel quality can at times be in question. This kit will extend service intervals and help protect the tractor fuel system from damage if the fuel contains more water than the base filtering equipment can handle on a continual basis.
 
The 60 micron constructed of stainless-steel filter element must be backflushed whenever the bowl is half full of water. The filter can be backflushed up to five times before the filter must be removed and cleaned. Filter element must be replaced when light is no longer visible through the filter. The replacement interval will vary depending on fuel quality.

Front Axle

The following tractor combinations are either recommended or required to install front axle and rear support kits (see chart) based off of machine configurations.

 

Front frame and axle support kits

 

Front frame and axle support kits provide additional support to the front frame and axle joint when the tractor is used in applications that put high torque and high vertical loads on the front end of the machine. This includes front-mounted spray tanks.

 

9RX Series Tractors

 

A front frame support kit (BRE10401) is required on all 9RX Series Tractors with front-mounted spray tanks.

Hydraulics

#

A=Hydraulic charge accumulator
B=Hydraulic hose
C=Clamp
D=Cap screws

 

A field installed hydraulic accumulator kit is used in applications where implements require large volumes of flowing oil for productivity. Such activities include air seeding, scraper applications or implements with multiple or large hydraulic cylinders. This attachment kit will assist the hydraulic system to maintain adequate hydraulic flow under normal operating conditions.

Auxiliary hitch lift assist kitAuxiliary hitch lift assist kit

Attaching implement hydraulic hoses to locations on the tractor other than into an SCV has always been a challenge to know what kits are required for compatibility.  Getting them installed in a timely manner can at times be confusing and time consuming.
 
To assist in making hookup to large planters, seeders, and harvesting equipment where multiple connections are required, there are now factory-installed auxiliary hydraulic couplers on wheel tractors.

Auxiliary sump coupler

For applications requiring low return oil back pressure (10 psi or less), the sump coupler kit allows oil to return directly to reservoir (differential case) from hydraulic motor, bypassing the remote coupler and SCV. When connecting motor case or seal return hose to coupler, make sure hose end and coupler are clean.


This coupler is required for correct attachment to current-production seeding products with case drain lines.

Hydraulic motor return couplers

The hydraulic motor return couplers can be used as a coupler for return oil flow, from hydraulic orbital motors and other devices, to the tractor's low-pressure return port, labeled ''R'' on the tractor.
Use of this connector specifically in the return to sump port position is for hydraulic components that require a ''leak-off line'' connection to the tractor. Components and implements that require this typically are larger orbital motors that require a drain for seal protection.  The connector in the sump port is not to be used to carry return flow from a function to the tractor.

Power beyond couplers

Power beyond provides live hydraulic power to equipment. This kit supplies oil pressure to implements when the engine is running.
 
Any implement using power beyond must have a way to control oil flow. Use an independent control valve that is pressure and flow compensating (supplied separately) to control the oil flow rate from this coupler set.

The auxiliary hydraulic optional equipment includes the following:

A - Power beyond couplers
B - Hydraulic motor return couplers
C - Motor seal drain kit
D - Load sense coupler

 

NOTE: RE151894 and RE67182 cannot be used together.

Conversion kitConversion kit

An option for a factory-equipped Category 5 drawbar with a Category 4 conversion kit included is available on 9420RX and 9470RX Tractors for producers who have Category 4 implements that cannot be converted to Category 5.

 

A Category 5 to Category 4 drawbar conversion kit is also available as an attachment kit.

 

NOTE: The preferred method when operating high-horsepower tractors is to convert implements to Category 5.


For additional implement information, please reference the planting and seeding or the tillage information.

Optional 3-point hitches increase the tractor's versatility
3-point hitch3-point hitch

A 3-point hitch with Quik-Coupler is available as a factory- or field-installed option.

 

Electronic draft-sensing relays load information to the electrohydraulic hitch control module for fast, smooth, accurate hitch corrections.

Tractors used in deep-ripping applications with hitch-mounted implements and all other applications with high vertical loads on the rear of the tractor are recommended to be equipped with a cast-tapered roller-bearing gudgeon. Tractors equipped with dozer blades for silage packing operations are also recommended to be equipped with this option.

 

If ordering a 3-point hitch with standard flow hydraulics, four, five, or six selective control valves (SCVs) are available.

 

If ordering a 3-point hitch with high-flow hydraulics, five or six SCVs are available.

Hitch controls

An ergonomically-designed hitch command control console makes it easy to operate the hitch. See the hitch controls section for more information.

Greaseable pin kitGreaseable pin kit

The rear hitch has pin joints located in the top lift carrier that uses pins (R304684) which can wear and require replacing to restore smooth operation over time.

 

The heavy-duty greasable pin kit provides a greasing zerk fitting on each pin for a grease shot to be included as part of the tractor’s grease maintenance.

 

This kit allows for the pin replacement to last far longer than the standard installed pin so long as it is regularly greased. This update will reduce or eliminate the need for future pin replacement in this joint.

Seat

Seat belt for 8R Series TractorsSeat belt for 8R Series Tractors

The 3-in. field-installed seat belt kit is designed for use with the 8R and 8RT Series Tractor operator seats. The seat belt kit is offered to meet regulations that require a seat belt anchorage force similar to the SAE J386 (including previous versions up to 22.2 kN anchorage strength), IOS 6683, and OSHA requirements (29CFR1926.602) for earthmoving operations and non-agricultural tractor operations.

 

NOTE: John Deere recommends reviewing the seat belt kit performance capabilities to ensure compliance with local, state, regional, and national requirements.

Track Spacing

9RX with 91.4-cm (36-in.) tracks and 304.8-cm (120-in.) track spacing9RX with 91.4-cm (36-in.) tracks and 304.8-cm (120-in.) track spacing

9RX Series Tractors equipped with 304.8-cm (120-in.) track spacing provide increased stability and allow producers to operate on 304.8-cm (120-in.) centers for controlled traffic farming. They also provide improved track-to-frame clearance for better access to the undercarriage for serviceability and material cleanout. John Deere is the first and only tractor manufacturer to offer a 304.8-cm (120-in.) track spacing option on four-track tractors with 76.2-cm (30-in.) and 91.4-cm (36-in.) tracks up to 462.3 kW (620 hp).

Tracks

Inner drive sprocket mud scraperInner drive sprocket mud scraper
Idler debris shieldIdler debris shield

 

The 9RX Series undercarriage includes mud scrapers on the exterior of the drive sprocket as standard equipment.

 

There are two optional self-cleaning kits available as an attachment.

 

The inner drive-sprocket mud scraper continuously removes bulk debris from the sprocket hub and discards it to the outside of the track assembly while the tractor is in forward motion.

 

The idler debris shield is attached to the rearward idler and continuously removes bulk debris from the idler as well as protecting the track-tensioning cylinders from light impact and debris buildup while the tractor is in forward motion.

 

Both kits are designed to significantly reduce mud, sand, rocks, and other potential buildup in the track assembly, while also increasing track belt life by discarding debris directly to the ground rather than on the track surface.
