ENGINE DETAIL

The John Deere 5725 features a robust turbocharged 4-cylinder diesel engine with a 4.6L displacement and a power output of 89hp at 2400 RPM, making it suitable for moderate agricultural tasks and utility work. Its emission rating of Tier 0 may limit its use in regions with strict environmental regulations, and the relatively high compression ratio of 17.0:1 can enhance thermal efficiency but may require high-quality fuel to avoid knocking. With an oil capacity of 9 quarts and a coolant capacity of 11.4 quarts, maintenance intervals should be carefully monitored to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.

JOHN DEERE 5725 ENGINE

The John Deere 5725 features a robust 4.6L 4-cylinder diesel engine, offering efficient power delivery ideal for mid-sized agricultural tasks. The fuel tank capacity varies from 25 gallons (94.6L) for off-season to 37 gallons (140.0L) for integrated on-board systems, providing flexibility in operation duration. However, operators should consider fuel management strategies, especially when utilizing the PowrReverser system, which has a slightly reduced fuel capacity of 33 gallons (124.9L), potentially impacting long operational sessions without refueling.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The John Deere 5725 features a 9-speed partially synchronized transmission that enhances ease of operation by allowing smoother gear shifts, especially under varying load conditions. Its 12-speed power shuttle provides quick directional changes, which is advantageous for loading and transportation tasks, reducing operator fatigue. However, users should be aware that mastering the partially synchronized system may require some practice to prevent gear clash during transitions.

TRANSMISSION 1

The John Deere 5725 features a gear system with 9 forward and 3 reverse gears, enabling flexibility in various field applications. The 279mm dry disc clutch ensures efficient power transfer but requires stopping the tractor to shift gears or ranges, which may impact productivity in frequent gear-change scenarios. With an oil capacity of 40.2 quarts, regular maintenance is crucial for optimal performance and longevity.

TRANSMISSION 2

The John Deere 5725 features a partially synchronized transmission, allowing for smoother gear shifts in 9 forward and 3 reverse gears, essential for various field operations. With an oil capacity of 40.2 quarts (38.0L), it ensures efficient lubrication and cooling under load. However, the requirement to stop and use the clutch for range shifts may reduce operational efficiency in time-sensitive tasks, necessitating careful planning during use.

TRANSMISSION 3

The John Deere 5725 features a Power Reverser transmission with 12 synchronized forward and reverse gears, enabling smooth direction changes during operation—ideal for tasks that require frequent reversing, such as loader work. The wet disc clutch enhances durability and performance, although it necessitates a complete stop for range shifts, potentially impacting productivity in rapid operation scenarios. An oil capacity of 46 quarts (43.5 L) suggests a robust lubrication system, but regular maintenance is crucial to ensure optimal performance and longevity.
