The John Deere exhaust filter is integrated into the engine design and electronics to provide a seamless operator experience. The engine control unit (ECU) and exhaust temperature management (ETM) system work together to continuously regenerate the exhaust filter using a natural cleaning process sometimes referred to as passive regeneration. If natural filter cleaning cannot be achieved based on temperature, load, and speed, then particulate matter (PM) must be removed using an automatic cleaning process sometimes referred to as active regeneration. In most cases, filter cleaning does not impact machine operation or require operator involvement. Higher pressures created by our Final Tier 4 (FT4)/Stage IV high-pressure fuel system extend intervals between automatic cleanings. How EGR works EGR reduces the high temperatures where nitrogen oxide (NOx) compounds are formed in the engine cylinders by replacing excess oxygen with a prescribed amount of cooled exhaust gas. Exhaust gases contain more carbon dioxide than oxygen. The EGR valve, in conjunction with the venturi and ECU, allows a controlled amount of exhaust gas to enter the intake manifold to mix with the incoming fresh air. Replacing excess oxygen with cooled exhaust gas leads to lower combustion temperatures, creating less NOx. In addition, EGR allows for advanced timing, leading to optimal performance of the engine, maximizing fuel economy. The following diagrams illustrate how air flows through the engine. For added performance and efficiency, the engine passes the exhaust gases through an EGR cooler before it enters the engine. Flow of exhaust during engine operation Exhaust airflow enters into the EGR cooler from the exhaust manifold near the turbocharger. Based on engine load, air temperatures, and rpm, the ECU opens or closes the EGR valve, allowing a measured percentage of exhaust gas to enter the intake manifold. The gases mix with the rest of the incoming air from the turbocharger and aftercooler before entering the cylinders. The following diagrams illustrate how air flows through the engine (PSS). For added performance and efficiency, the engine passes the exhaust gases through an EGR cooler before it enters the engine. PSS 9.0L and 13.5L FT4 technology

The e18 transmission delivers smooth shifting and intuitive controls in a reliable 18-speed PST transmission. The e18 transmission with enhanced Efficiency Manager is standard equipment on all 9 Series Tractors. The e18 has evolved from more than 50 years of John Deere PowerShift technology. With more automatic features, the e18 is easy to operate for all levels of operators and operations. It features three modes of operation, full AUTO, custom, and manual modes. Full AUTO and custom modes manage the engine and transmission to match the desired ground speed to the field conditions. These two modes are ideal for most conditions and take the guess work out of operation. Manual mode is perfect for operators looking to operate the e18 like a traditional PowerShift by bump shifting and managing the engine throttle to their liking. As the next generation of PowerShift technology, the e18 delivers the strength to handle sudden, high-torque power loads while maintaining responsive, quick, and smooth shifts.

e18 controls

CommandCenter™ controls

The CommandCenter is the central information system for tractors and allows the operator to program various settings tailored to a specific operation. To access the tractor’s transmission settings, press the transmission shortcut button on the CommandCenter shortcut bar. 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 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 can 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

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

e18 operation

Setting start-up gears The 9 Series Tractors default to 7F and 2R at start up. However, these default start-up gears can be adjusted from 1-13F and 1-3R through the CommandCenter. Refer to the operator’s manual for additional information. 9R Tractor – e18-speed chart for PowerShift transmission (PST) with Efficiency Manager 9R table

The 435-L/min (115-gpm) hydraulic system (order code 2813) is designed to reduce scraper hydraulic cycle times, thus increasing the efficiency of the tractor/scraper combination. Two hydraulic pumps are combined for a total of 435 L/min (115 gpm).  Flow through one 19.1-mm (3/4-in.) SCV is 140 L/min (45 gpm). The selective control valves (SCVs) are designed for commercial applications. This system is not 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. This will prevent the rear scraper from slowing down, in relation to the front scraper, when operating the front and rear scrapers at the same time. When ordering this scraper high-flow option, the tractor will come standard with four SCVs. The two system pumps provide their combined oil flow of 435 L/min (115 gpm) to all four SCVs through a common valve manifold. All the SCV oil returns to one common reservoir. 19.1-mm (3/4-in.) couplers reduce restriction for increased flow to the scraper. A secondary lowering function accumulator is included with the hydraulic valves so the scraper can be lowered if hydraulic power is lost. NOTE: This system is not recommended with agricultural implements with continuous flow demand (scraper applications only). IMPORTANT: Do not use this system with scrapers/implements with 12.7-mm (1/2-in.) couplers/hoses/hydraulic systems. Damage could occur to implement hoses/couplers/components due to high-flow capability of the tractor system. NOTE: Power Beyond connections are not recommended for use with scraper systems or high hydraulic oil take out demand (example: large or multiple single acting cylinders, raising multiple scraper pans). Power Beyond connections are recommended for agricultural equipment with continuous flow demands (example: variable rate drives, CCS fans).

Exclusively designed for the 9R Tractors, the 18-speed full PowerShift transmission with Efficiency Manager is standard on the 9460R to 9560R and 9RT Scraper Tractors. The 18-speed transmission features include:

• 18 forward speeds and six reverse speeds
• Able to shift from neutral up to 13th forward
• Speed matching from 18th forward to 13th forward
• Clutchless shuttle-shifting between 13th forward and sixth reverse
• Speeds are carefully spaced to take full advantage of engine power bulge and torque characteristics
• 10 speeds with a 0.8-km/h (0.5-mph) speed change between gears in the 4.8- to 12.9-km/h (3- to 8-mph) working range
• Allows selecting the right gear for the operation to ensure that best fuel economy and productivity are obtained
• Speeds carefully developed to match all the tractor’s needs
• Transmission-to-engine controller communication

The 9RT offers increased speed up to 40 km/h (25 mph). Gear ratios on the track tractors have increased approximately 16.5 percent across the board, providing increased speed at respective levels on the 9030T. Full powershifts for on-the-go shifting:

• No need to stop or clutch when changing speeds
• Forward-reverse shuttle shift with no clutching
• Transmission defaults to seventh gear whenever the tractor is started

  NOTE:

• John Deere supports the usage of bio diesel. Bio diesel should meet ASTM D6751 (US) or EN 14214 (European) fuel quality standards.
• Tractors receive fuel containing a 2 percent bio-diesel blend at the factory.
• Acceptable blend levels may vary by geographic region.
• Diesel exhaust fluid will freeze when exposed for longer than three hours to conditions below -11°C (12.2° F).

For more information about the use of bio-diesel in John Deere engines, refer to www.JohnDeere.com/biodiesel.

9RT	93.9 L (24.8 gal.)
9RX	120 L (31.7 gal.)

Severe-duty water separator, if equipped The severe-duty water separator can extend service intervals and helps to protect the tractor’s fuel system from damage associated with lower-quality fuel. Simply open the drain valve on the bottom of the separator and drain accumulated water. NOTE: Cummins® QSX 15 L (915.4-cu in.) engines cannot be equipped with a severe-duty water separator; however, the fuel filter has separating capabilities like the primary filter on John Deere Power System engines.

Engine access

The tilt hood and side panel design provide additional engine compartment protection. The 9R, 9RT, and 9RX hoods feature the same design for access to engine components. Pull out the hood release (located on the front, left side) and tilt hood back to open. Engine side panels are quickly and easily removed for access to periodic maintenance items.

Transmission, hydraulic, and axle oil level

A sight glass for the transmission, hydraulic, and axle oil level is located at the back right side of the gudgeon, indicating proper oil levels, and an oil fill neck is located on the back right side of the gudgeon for the 9R and 9RX Tractors. The oil fill is located on the top of the common reservoir on the left side of the 9RT Tractor and a fill tube is located between the steps and engine of the tractor.

• Provides increased filter capacity compared to previous 9R and 9RT Tractors
• Transmission, hydraulic, and axle oil should be changed every 1500 hours
• Filter should be changed every 1500 hours unless filter restriction code occurs
• Daily and 10-hour inspections of the transmission hydraulic oil level are recommended

NOTE: The tractor should be off and parked on level ground with the hitch in the lowered position when checking the oil level.

• Sight glass observations will be significantly higher with hot oil temperatures and lower with cold oil or if engine has not run long enough.

NOTE: Oil level above the top mark on the sight glass can result in power loss and heat generation during transport applications.

Primary air filter access

On the 9R and 9RX, the primary engine air filter is accessible from the left-hand platform for replacement annually or as operating conditions require. The filter is aspirated and extends filter life in dusty conditions by aspirating more than 95 percent of incoming dust. Aspirator suction is created by utilizing the air flow from the cooling fan. On the 9RT, the primary engine air filter is located at ground level on right side of tractor.

Windshield washer

The windshield washer bottle is optional on 9R and 9RX Tractors and is located on the left side of the tractor near the DEF fill point. On 9RT Tractors, it is located on the right-side frame.

Oil change intervals

Tractors with the 9.0L (549.2-cu in.) and 13.5L (823.2-cu in.) John Deere Power Systems engines feature a 500-hour change interval when using approved John Deere Plus-50™ II oil and a John Deere oil filter. Tractors equipped with the Cummins QSX 15-L (915.4-cu in.) engine have a 400-hour engine oil and oil filter change interval.

• Previous initial oil and filter change at 100 hours is no longer required due to the factory fill of Break-In™ Plus oil.
• If using anything other than John Deere Plus-50 II oil, a 250-hour change interval is required.  CJ-4 must still be used.
• Only use ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel and CJ-4, ACEA E9, or ACEA E6 oil.
• An oil change of 500 hours is possible when using fuel with less than 15 parts per million (ppm) of sulfur, along with John Deere Plus-50 II oil.

See the tractor’s operator’s manual for oil change intervals and further details.

Battery access

The 9R and 9RX battery location is behind the left-hand step assembly. There are three bolts that secure the swinging step assembly that need to be removed to completely access the batteries. The 9RT top step of the platform conceals the tractor’s three 12-V batteries with 2775 CCA (925-CCA each). Tractors with the Cummins X15 engine will have four 12-V batteries in the same location as tractors equipped with John Deere Power System engines. Although the batteries are maintenance free, conditions such as long periods of operation at high ambient temperatures and excessive engine cranking may require adding water.

Battery boost terminal

On the 9R and 9RX, a battery boost terminal is located on the left-hand side of the engine for convenient and proper boost assisted starting.

Fuse and relay panel

The electrical fuse and relay panel is located behind the operator’s seat and just below the cab’s rear window. Simply lift up on the operator manual cover for access.

• Contains easy-to-replace automotive blade-type fuses and relays for quick servicing.
• Spare fuses are provided for each amperage size used.

The diode module contains many of the diodes contained in the system:

• If a diode problem occurs, simply replace the diode module for easy service and increased uptime.
• Relays are also fully interchangeable for quick service.

Electrical system (smart load center)  The electrical system provides a full controller area network (CAN) bus based system on the tractor for improved tractor implement integration and flexibility. Incorporated with the system is a smart load center, which provides fewer fuses, fewer connectors, and simplified wiring for increased reliability. The solid-state load center’s primary function is to control the majority of high-current loads, such as fender floodlights and the horn. This electronic circuitry will monitor loads and voltages to provide fast reaction time and the ability to alert the operator if a circuit overloads or if voltage is out of specification – for example, open circuit (undercurrent) or short circuit (overcurrent).

Cab air filters

The cab fresh air filter is conveniently located beneath the left side of the cab for all 9 Series products:

• External service means no mess in the cab from dusty filters
• Filter housing acts as a dust accumulator compartment
• Hand screw eliminates need for tools
• Replace cab fresh air filter every 1000 hours or sooner if plugged or damaged

Cab air recirculation filter Cab air recirculation filter is located in the roof liner above the operator. 70 percent of the total air volume is recirculated with a blanket effect for enhanced operator comfort.

• Replace cab air recirculation filter every 1000 hours or sooner if plugged or damaged.

Cab air filters are not designed to filter out harmful chemicals. Follow the instructions in the implement operator’s manual and those given by the chemical manufacturer when using agricultural chemicals.

Maintenance-free U-joint

Maintenance-free U-joint bearings require no servicing to reduce maintenance time.

Toolbox

A convenient toolbox is located on the left-hand side of the front frame for tool storage and comes standard on all 9R, 9RT, and 9RX Tractors. 9R and 9RX Tractors have an additional storage box conveniently located on top the left-hand platform. The 9RT has an additional toolbox conveniently located next to the left side of the batteries for additional storage. Cummins is a trademark of Cummins, Inc.

The front tow cable is recommended for pulling all 9 Series Tractors in time of needed assistance. Tow cables are available as a factory-installed option on all ag tractors and are base equipment on all Scraper Special Tractors. The tow cable attaches to the area in front of the drawbar and is also available as a field-installed option.

Available as either a factory- or field-installed attachment, the battery disconnect switch is used to disconnect the batteries in preparation for 20-day to 90-day storage periods. The switch cuts the power to the entire tractor to aid in maintaining battery life. An indicator light allows for safe and proper disconnect. The light will flash until it is safe to disconnect. This allows the diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank and lines to purge. (Final Tier 4 has an indicator light and Interim Tier 4 has no indicator light) Cummins is a trademark of Cummins Incorporated.

The ISO cab implement controller area network (CAN) bus adapter is available to connect any ISO compliant implement or device to an 8R, 8RT, 9R, 9RT, 9RX (including Scraper Special) Series Tractor.  These connectors are commonly used for planter frame control boxes. 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.

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 CommandCenter™ display or performance monitor readouts:

• Percent slip
• Hitch slip command (if equipped)

Radar usage improves the accuracy of the following CommandCenter display 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.

Front weights provide additional ballast for the front axle.

Cast Quik-Tatch suitcase weights (R127764) can be added to provide additional ballast for implements that exert heavy draft loads and require additional ballast or with hitch-mounted implements that require additional ballast to maintain steering control while transporting. These weights are Quik-Tatch weights that require minimal effort to attach.

Pick-up weights

Pick-up weights are design to add fast weight to the tractor. Following pick-up weights can be mounted at the front. Support (base weight):

• Pick-up weight 900 kg
• Pick-up weight 1150 kg

All pick-up hitches can be mounted also at the rear in the 3-point hitch as a counter weight. To use the third mounting point, an additional center-link bracket is available. 1500 kg and 1800 kg  pick-up weights The two weights differ only internally, therefore no external differences are visible. The pick-up weights can either be installed on the rear hitch or on the front hitch of the tractor using the center-link bracket. They cannot be mounted directly on the front base weight. A front hitch is required. The center-link bracket for installation is included. The new shape of the 1500 kg and 1800 kg pick-up weights allows a quick and safe mounting. This is ensured by an optimal alignment of the weight and the tractor along with a self-centering design. Major benefits of the new design:

• Easy and comfortable
• Less time is required
• Lower risk of injury

Due to the user-friendliness, an optimal ballasting of the tractor is guaranteed at any time. The performance of the tractor is used to a greater extent, which leads to higher productivity and a reduction in fuel consumption. The weights cannot be front installed in combination with Quik-Tatch front weights. NOTE: Ballast should be limited by the lowest of either tire capacity or tractor capacity. The carrying capacity of each tire should not be exceeded. For more ballasting information refer to the operator’s manual and ballast calculator.

The accessories bracket is available for mounting monitors, phones, radios, and other accessories in one convenient location. The bracket connects in the existing holes inside the cab.

This kit provides antenna mount, radio mounting plate, and wiring for a business band radio.

To better accommodate governmental or commercial sales, a back-up alarm is available as a factory- or field-installed attachment on select models. An alarm sounds whenever the transmission is placed in reverse. The alarm provides a high level of warning that the tractor is changing direction. A backup alarm is base equipment on 9R and 9RT Scraper Special Series Tractors.

Cast-iron wheel weights provide added ballast at the tires for increased traction and stability.

Cast-iron wheel weights provide added ballast at the tires for increased traction and stability.

For operators requiring additional ballast or additional traction on the rear axle

72-kg (159-lb), 205-kg (452-lb), 625-kg (1378-lb), and 970-kg (2138-lb) cast rear-wheel weights are available for the 7R and 8R Series Tractors. The attaching hardware for all rear-wheel weight options may be ordered through parts. The range of rear-wheel weights can provide the proper amount of rear axle ballast for a variety of applications. The addition of this ballast will increase traction on the rear axle of the tractor. These weights can also be used to counterbalance the effect of adding additional weight on the front axle in the form of a front weight support, front hitch, front spray tanks, and front-end loaders. 205-kg (452-lb) weight The 205-kg (452-lb) cast rear-wheel weight is offered individually as attachment R07782. The 72-kg (159-lb) starter weight (R167153) must be installed prior to the 205-kg (452-lb) weight on rear steel wheels. This practice is optional on cast wheels; however, most weight packages will be configured this way. 625-kg (1378-lb) weight R553540 includes one 625-kg (1378-lb) cast inner rear-wheel weight. This weight is to be used on the inside of the rear wheel assembly.
