June 07, 2006 - John Deere 5020 Series Tractors are now available in narrow configurations. With excellent all-round visibility these compact and manoeuvrable tractors are suitable for use in wide vineyards, wide orchards, in and around farm buildings and in other confined spaces.

Designed and built at John Deere’s Mannheim tractor factory in Germany the 5020 Series Tractors borrow many of their advanced technology features from the higher horsepower 6020 Series tractors. They incorporate Tier II compliant John Deere PowerTech™ four cylinder constant power engines with a rated PTO power of 44 kW (59 hp), 49 kW (66 hp) and 55 kW (74 hp) for the 5620, 5720 and 5820 respectively

To accommodate the smaller design the narrow configuration features narrowed rear fenders, inboard footsteps and handrails, narrowed 114 litre fuel tank and standard MFWD front axle. The overall tractor width is 1,740 mm (at the ground) on 11.2R20 front tyres. Versatility can be extended with the availability of various loader combinations, front hitch / PTO options, and several light packages with up to 10 work lights.

The full-frame design of these tractors feature a low overall weight of 3,700 kilograms and compact dimensions with a high payload capacity. Larger, heavier implements can be carried without placing extra stress on the engine and drivetrain components, which concentrate on transmitting the power.

John Deere's popular PowrQuad™ 40 km/h 16-speed transmission with Perma Clutch II™ is fitted as standard, and includes four powershiftable speed ranges and a left hand power reverser with neutral, for easy shifting under load without clutching.

Automatic speed matching on the optional PowrQuad Plus™ transmission, which features single lever shifting, allows the correct gear to be chosen when shifting though the fully synchronised ranges. An additional 16 speeds are available as an option on both transmissions, giving a minimum speed of 1.5 km/h.

Vegetables, vineyards, orchards ... high value crops need highly specialised equipment. That’s why John Deere manufacture tractors in a wide range of configurations to satisfy the specific needs of your operations: narrow tractors for vineyards and tightly planted orchards; low-clearance models that can cruise underneath overhanging trees; and high-crop models to tower over tall crops. Each model offers a wide range of features and options to meet the demands of growing, tending and harvesting high-value crops.
