• 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

• 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

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.
