Heavy-duty two-wheel drive (2WD) front axle
- The two-wheel drive (2WD) front axle is manufactured from heavy-duty nodular cast iron for superior strength and durability and is available in the 6100E and 6115E.
Mechanical front-wheel drive (MFWD) (optional)
- The caster action front-wheel drive design permits wheels to tilt and tuck under tractor chassis to achieve sharp turns. It improves stability and steering accuracy and provides positive turn traction and allows a maximum 52-degree turn angle.
- Inboard planetary final drives
- Distributes axle load equally over three points. Reduces stress on individual gears and shafts for increased reliability
Hydrostatic power steering
- Hydrostatic steering provides optimum performance and efficiency in all operating conditions with minimal effort.
Open-center hydraulic system
- All 6E Series Tractors feature a gear-driven, open-center (constant-flow) hydraulic system with a maximum pressure of 19,500 kPa (2830 psi), with a rated flow to the rear selective control valves (SCVs) of 73.2 L/min (19.1 gpm).
Joystick control lever
- Optional mid-mount valve with joystick allows multiple functions to be performed by one lever, which is especially useful for loader operations.
Category 2, 3-point hitch
- Features a rugged, Category 2, 3-point hitch designed to SAE standards, to accommodate demanding implement draft and lift requirements, plus a Category 2 drawbar to tackle the toughest drawbar loads
Top adjustable swinging drawbar
- Equipped with an in-base Category 2 swinging drawbar, which allows the operator to slide the drawbar to one side for power take-off (PTO) operations, especially useful with hay equipment
- Independent 540/1000 rpm PTO
- Easily switch between 540 and 1000 rpm-driven implements simply by removing the stub shaft and reversing its position
Mechanically actuated wet-disk brakes

Operator’s station
- Both cab and open operator station (OOS) platforms offer easy, uncluttered access to all tractor and implement controls.
- The controls are ergonomically located and color coded, giving the operator natural and logical command of all functions.
Fixed or foldable Roll-Gard™ rollover protective structure (ROPS)
- The foldable Roll-Gard can be adjusted from the seat. The tractor will fit under standard 203.2-cm (80-in.) door openings. The tractor’s height with fixed ROPS is around 254 cm (100 in.), depending on the wheel size.
Factory-installed cab
- A ROPS-certified, factory-installed cab is available to all operators. The cab provides protection from heat and cold, wind, noise, and offers a climate-controlled environment. The cabs are also assembled to the tractor chassis as a complete unit mounted on composite isolators.
Standard seat for open operator station (OOS) tractors and deluxe seat for cabs
- Vinyl standard seats are fully adjustable fore/aft and weight. A factory-installed armrest option is available. Deluxe seats used in cabs are fully adjustable fore/aft along with height and weight. Seats are equipped with a seat switch to detect operator’s presence for the PTO alarm. Both kinds of seats have retractable seat belts.
Composite fenders and hood
