JOHN DEERE 6225 ENGINE

The John Deere 6225 is powered by a robust 4.5L four-cylinder diesel engine, which provides efficient fuel consumption and adequate torque for various agricultural tasks. With a fuel tank capacity of 43.6 gallons (165 liters), it supports extended operation periods, ideal for large-scale farming without frequent refueling. However, users should note the weight and compactness of the tractor for maneuverability in tight spaces, which could be a challenge in specific field scenarios.

TRANSMISSIONS OVERVIEW

The John Deere 6225 features a 12-speed synchronized transmission coupled with a 16-speed power shuttle, providing enhanced control and versatility for various farming applications. This setup allows for smooth gear transitions and improved efficiency during operation, making it suitable for both towing and fieldwork. However, operators must be proficient in managing gear shifts to maximize performance and avoid potential wear on the transmission components.

JOHN DEERE 6225 TIRES

The John Deere 6225 tractor offers versatile performance with two drivetrain options: 2WD for cost-effectiveness and lower maintenance, and 4WD for enhanced traction in uneven terrains, particularly beneficial in wet conditions. The standard tire sizes, 7.50R18 (front) and 18.4R30 (rear) for 2WD, and 13.6R24 (front) and 18.4R30 (rear) for 4WD, provide optimal stability and load distribution for agricultural tasks. However, 4WD may introduce increased fuel consumption and wear on tires if not necessary for the operational conditions.
