ENGINE DETAIL
The John Deere 6510 features a robust 6.8L diesel engine, delivering 105 hp at 2300 RPM and impressive torque of 335 lb-ft at 1000 RPM, making it well-suited for demanding agricultural tasks. Its oil and coolant capacities of 20.8 quarts and 13.6 quarts, respectively, support extended operational periods, although maintenance intervals should be adhered to for optimal performance. Adjustments to valve clearances—0.014 inches for intake and 0.018 inches for exhaust—are critical for maintaining engine efficiency and longevity.

JOHN DEERE 6510 TRANSMISSION
The John Deere 6510 features a 24-speed transmission, allowing for enhanced speed control and versatility in various field conditions. This extensive gear range can improve fuel efficiency and adaptability when working with different implements, though it may present a steeper learning curve for operators. Ideal for diverse agricultural tasks, the 6510 maximizes performance across varying terrain while minimizing power loss during operation.
MECHANICAL
The John Deere 6510 features a robust four-wheel drive system that enhances traction and stability in varied terrain, making it ideal for agricultural tasks requiring maneuverability. Its hydrostatic power steering provides smooth handling and increased operator comfort during extended use, reducing operator fatigue. However, while hydrostatic systems offer precise control, they may require more maintenance compared to traditional steering systems, particularly in rugged conditions.

JOHN DEERE 6510 TIRES
The John Deere 6510 is equipped with Ag front tires sized 16.9R24 and rear tires 18.4R38, providing a strong balance for traction and stability during fieldwork. The larger rear tires enhance flotation and reduce soil compaction, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks such as tillage and planting. However, the combination may limit turning radius in tight spaces, so maneuverability should be considered in smaller fields.
