Boundary mapping
Spraying
Precision ag technologies have changed the way we farm, and John Deere has been at the forefront of that change. Adding the GreenStar™ ready or AutoTrac™ ready option to a Gator Utility Vehicle brings precision ag technology to farms of all sizes.
G5 Universal Display and pivoting bracket with power switch
StarFire™ receiver mount
The GreenStar ready option provides a basic precision ag technology solution enabling you to utilize the vehicle’s fast speed, light weight, and nimbleness to establish boundary lines, even when the soil is too wet for larger equipment.
The GreenStar ready option code includes factory-installed components:
A StarFire receiver and universal display are required and can be installed year-round or shared with another piece of equipment.
The GreenStar ready option also requires a JDLink™ modem to connect your utility vehicle to the John Deere Operations Center:
G5 Universal Display with AutoTrac ready switches
ISO implement connector
Bring another level of productivity to your farm by adding an AutoTrac assisted steering system to your Gator Utility Vehicle. In addition to the benefits of the GreenStar ready, the AutoTrac ready option enables hands-free steering and includes an ISO implement connector.
Stop waiting for the perfect day to spray
Improve soil mapping
Checkout your boundaries to reduce planting hassles
Enhance your basic AutoTrac assisted steering system with AutoPath. AutoPath transforms farming operations by providing precise, automated guidance for the entire field, regardless of the season or crop type. With AutoPath, you can expect improved productivity, higher yields, and overall greater operational efficiency.
AutoPath plans can be generated in one of two ways:
Gator utility vehicles can use AutoPath (rows) to steer themselves accurately between planted crop rows, preventing crop damage. This enables the driver to work quicker and more efficiently while concentrating on field tasks such as spot spraying, crop, rock, or pest scouting, even before emergence.
Utilize a Gator Utility Vehicle’s fast speed, light weight, and agility to drive around and map the perimeter of your fields. This can be done in conjunction with a StarFire Receiver and Gen 4 or G5 display. These accurate and robust boundaries can support AutoPath (boundaries) plans and autonomy in the future. Once the field boundary is established and an AutoPath plan is created with reference to the boundary using the Operations Center or within the display, Gators can efficiently navigate the entire field, reaping the same benefits mentioned earlier.
BPF12459 locking bracket for StarFire 7000 and 7500 Receivers
BPF12464 locking bracket for StarFire 6000 Receivers
The optional receiver locking bracket provides protection from against theft or tampering by securing the receiver using a 15.875-mm (5/8-in.) lockable receiver hitch pin (sold separately).
The large cargo box on full-size Gator XUVs has a 454 kg (1000 lb) capacity so you can bring your gear, tools, and haul materials with confidence. You can also make fewer trips with 1814 kg (4000 lb) of towing capacity and a standard 51-mm (2-in.) receiver hitch.

The cargo box resists dents, scratches, and rust because it is made from a tough composite material and can haul 524-L (18.5-cu ft) of your gear and material. Five D-ring tie down points and rails can be used to secure your load.
Cargo box with 2x6 dividers
Cargo box utilizing the second level of storage
Molding the cargo box allows for built-in features that enable the box to be quickly reconfigured for the unique needs of every job. You can use standard 5-cm (2-in.) dimensional lumber to hold cargo in place or divide cargo box into separate areas. You can add a second level of storage space by leveraging the tiered storage lip. Stake pocket clamps allows for quick and toolless attachment installation and removal. On M-trim and R-trim vehicles, a 12-V power port is available to power attachments.
A pipe clamped to V-channel
Pocket with hardware and cupholder
The tailgate includes a flat work surface, ruler, and pockets to place hardware. A v-channel and four reinforced clamping pockets work together to securely hold round objects. Bump stops provide raised edges position your square edged objects.
Since your hands are always full, the tailgate can be opened and closed with one hand. You can also lower the tailgate to carry longer items or remove it for easy cleanout.

The JDLink M Modem regularly transmits the location and operational status of each vehicle in the fleet so you can monitor progress in Operations Center.
The modem regularly transmits the vehicle’s engine hours to inform maintenance planning and balance use.
Operations Center Maintenance Planner
Factory or custom maintenance plans can be established in Operations Center. Maintenance alerts are sent when engine hours reach maintenance intervals.
Operations Center Machine Analyzer Tool
On select products, the modem reports the hours the vehicle spent working and idling. The Operations Center’s Machine Analyzer tool reports usage data which allows you to analyze operator behavior, identify causes of low productivity, and initiate corrective actions.
On select products, the modem reports the fuel level. On these products, an analysis of fuel consumption is available in the Operations Center Machine Analyzer Tool. Measuring fuel consumption enables you to address causes of excessive fuel use.
On select products, the modem transmits the trouble codes generated by the vehicle’s control units to the Operations Center. Addressing DTCs can reduce downtime and repair costs. For example, a low-engine oil pressure DTC can indicate an engine is low on oil. Addressing the issue can prevent costly downtime and repairs.
To help address issues quickly, when a DTC is generated, the Operations Center can display a push notification on the mobile app and send an email. Operations Center can also be configured to limit notifications to stop-level severity DTCs.
On select products, John Deere dealers can perform remote diagnostics, software programming, and adjustments without the cost of a service call.
A JDLink Modem is included on:
A JDLink M Modem can be field installed on the Gator Utility Vehicles listed below. Field installation attachments simplify modem installation, and include mounting hardware, harness, and instructions. Field installation requires a JDLink M Modem to be ordered separately. The field installation attachments include a wiring harness therefore the modem should be ordered with the less harness option code.
