ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS
The John Deere 5115RH tractor features a robust 13.6L PowerTech diesel engine with wet-sleeve liners, ensuring easier maintenance and durability. Its dual series turbocharger configuration provides enhanced power delivery while maintaining compliance with Final Tier 4 emissions standards, crucial for operating in regulated environments. However, the complexity of the after-treatment systems (DOC/SCR) could lead to increased service intervals and costs, particularly if operating in lower quality fuel conditions or if maintenance schedules are not adhered to.
