Made for the road.Advanced engineering in the John Deere 8R Series makesit easy to transport heavy loads while using less fuel. TheIndependent Link Suspension (ILS) with mechanical frontwheel drive (MFWD) allows you to put more power to theground – both in the field and on the road.Fuel efficiency is enhanced, as well. With 42 km/hAutoPowr transmission, the engine runs at only1434 rpm. With 50 km/h AutoPowr transmission,only 1713 rpm are needed.ActiveCommand Steering:the new benchmark for driving performanceJohn Deere’s exclusive ActiveCommand Steering (optional) isthe most robust and complete steering system in the industry.Whether in the field or on the road, it reduces steering effortto prevent operator fatigue – and considerably improvesdriving comfort and control. Dynamic Stability Control keeps your tractor on track withminimal effort. It automatically adjusts the road wheelangle based on the lateral acceleration of the tractor. Thisimproves vehicle control when cornering at transport speedsand improves line-holding ability – even in rough and bumpyterrain.Andreas BeckerEmployee at Contractor JürgenMörtter, Hennef-Petershohn;Operating seven tractors witha high percentage of transportapplications.“The driving stability and steering accuracy of the 8R’s ActiveCommand Steeringon the road is really great – The tractor automatically controls and adjusts thesteering and makes you feel safe and comfortable. Even with heavy implementsthe 8R is easy to navigate. There is no comparison to existing steering systems” Variable Ratio Steering provides light, agile steering atslower speeds and heavier steering for higher speeds – forexample, during transport. The system adjusts both theresistance of the steering wheel and the number of timesyou need to turn it during lock-to-lock manoeuvres. Full Electronic Steering Control makes it easier to stay oncourse and reduces operator fatigue by providing a morecomfortable driving experience all round. The new systemremoves all the drawbacks of a conventional steeringcolumn-to-wheel setup. It reduces vibration significantly andeliminates free play completely.

16 8R Series Tractors – 9.0 L PowerTech PSX EngineTop efficiency, top performanceTo meet current and future emission standards, John Deerehas invested in the research and development of moreefficient engines and lower emissions. Our conclusion:Why change what’s already working well?12While competitors aim to reduce emissions with a complicateddual-fluid system, John Deere has focused on keeping thingssimple with a future-ready, single-fluid approach. Basically,we’ve considerably optimised the performance and efficiencyof our already highly fuel-efficient, field-proven and userfriendly PowerTech Plus engine.The result not only fully complies with Stage III B emissionregulations, it is a pioneering, environmentally friendlysolution without compromising on engine performance:the new PowerTech PSX engine. That’s John Deere’s signaturefor GreenEfficiency!74Placeholder7Horsepower that won’t let you downThe incredible performance and torque output of the 9.0 L8R PowerTech PSX engine unleashes up to 265 kW (360 hp)at rated speed and up to max. 409 hp with Intelligent PowerManagement according to 97/68EC standard.The secret to this impressive power lies in the dual turbo(1 fixed and 1 variable geometry turbocharger) and highpressure CommonRail fuel system. The high capacity VariCoolcooling system and air-to-air aftercooling also improve engineperformance. This is a tough workhorse engine that won’t letyou down!356Roaring with efficiency – the 9.0 L PowerTech PSX– GreenEfficiency fuel economy– High horsepower 12% ExtraPower– High torque rise up to 44%– Reduced emissions1 EGR cools and mixes measured amounts of cooled exhaustgas with incoming fresh air to lower peak combustiontemperatures, thereby reducing NOx.2 The series turbocharger delivers more boost pressure whichincreases the performance.3 4-valve cylinder head provides excellent airflow resultingin greater low-speed torque and better transient responsetime.4 HPCR fuel systems provide variable CommonRail pressure,multiple injections and higher injection pressure with2000 bar.5 Low-friction, single-piece steel piston improves fueleconomy, reduces emissions and increases durability.6 Directed top liner cooling contributes to improved oil controland increased durability.7 John Deere electronic engine controls: faster engine controlunit (ECU) manages both, engine and exhaust filter.

8R Series Tractors 17Fulfilling Stage III B standardsNew improved cooling packageIn order to comply with tougher emissions regulations and also contribute to moresustainable farming, John Deere has chosen a combined approach to reducing dieselengine exhaust emissions.To help the engine respondmore quickly to load changes,the cooling package hasbeen redesigned for greatercapacity – so you get a biggersurge of power where and whenyou need it most (e.g. duringheavy draft applications or PTOoperations). The cooling packageincludes a new high efficiencycooling fan, a bigger radiatorand the VariCool cooling systemthat automatically adjusts fanspeeds to maintain an optimumoperating temperature.Series TurbochargerFirst, fresh air is drawn into the low-pressure turbocharger (fixed geometry) andcompressed. Next, it is drawn into the high-pressure turbocharger (variable geometry) foradditional compression. The high-pressure air is then routed through a charge air coolerand into the engine’s intake manifold. By splitting the work between two turbochargers,both can operate at peak efficiency and at slower rotating speeds. This reduces the stresson turbocharger components and improves reliability.Series turbocharging delivers more boost pressure than single turbocharger configurations.That means higher power density, improved low-speed torque, fuel economy and betterhigh-altitude operation.EGR: Cooled Exhaust Gas RecirculationEGR lowers peak combustion temperatures and reduces nitrogen oxides (NOx) by coolingand mixing measured amounts of cooled exhaust gas with incoming fresh air.Fixed & variable geometryturbochargersDual turbochargers ensureexcellent torque even at lowengine speeds, improvedengine response andenhanced fuel economy.New radiatorThe large radiator improvesengine cooling capacity andfolds out for fast and easyservicing or cleaning.Exhaust filtersJohn Deere Power Tech PSX engines use a catalysed exhaust filter that contains a dieseloxidation catalyst (DOC) and a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The DOC reacts with exhaustgases to reduce carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and some particulate matter (PM).The downstream DPF traps and holds the remaining PM. Trapped particles are oxidizedinside the DPF by a continuous cleaning process called passive filter cleaning. Passive filtercleaning takes place during normal operating conditions, when heat from the exhaust filtertriggers the oxidation of the trapped PM.11 Diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC)2 Diesel particulate filter (DPF)2Self-cleaning filterAn advanced, self-cleaning exhaust filter helps to remove even thesmallest particles when cleaning is in progress. The Filter CleaningIndicator is shown on the CommandCenter display. That s all theoperator will notice about the cleaning process.
