Power and Efficiency
Unmatched Power of Choice
8 Series Tractors (250–410) are built with a John Deere JD9 Engine, plus your choice of transmission. You get outstanding pulling power and excellent total fluid economy.
Choose from three power choices:
- 8R Tractors: six models ranging 250–410 engine hp (186–306 kW).
- 8RT Tractors: four models ranging 310–410 engine hp (231–306 kW).
- 8RX Tractors: four models ranging 310–410 engine hp (231–306 kW). The industry's only fixed-frame, four-track row-crop tractor through and through.
Note: Always ballast your tractor according to Operator's Manual.
Engine
John Deere JD9 Engine
Get uncompromised performance in your 8 Series Tractors with up to up to 410 rated engine horsepower (302 kW), and even higher through Intelligent Power Management. It's all possible thanks to an incredibly smart Engine Control Unit, which senses engine speed and load changes at a rate of 100 times per second.
Intelligent Power Management
The 8 Series Tractors combine world-class efficiency with increased horsepower to push productivity to higher levels than ever before. Intelligent Power Management (IPM) provides a horsepower increase during PTO and transport applications of up to 35 hp (26 kW) to help increase productivity.
Emissions Control
Our seamlessly integrated Emissions Control system is designed to use less diesel fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) for total fluid economy. The aftertreatment system is streamlined into a smaller package than on previous models, improving visibility from the cab. To meet your farm's rigorous demands, we continue to use a diesel oxidation catalyst, a diesel particulate filter, and a selective catalytic reduction system to meet emissions standards while minimizing fuel consumption and operational challenges.
Fan-Drive Cooling System
Keep your tractor cool on the hottest days in the field. The viscous fan system increases service intervals and improves uptime.
Transmission Options
Electric Variable Transmission (EVT)
The Electric Variable Transmission (EVT) option on 8 Series 370 and 410 models provides infinite speed control and faster acceleration thanks to its stepless transmission design. Electric motors replace hydrostatic motors for improved performance and control, reliability, and efficiency. Operators will notice it's also quieter than other transmissions. Choose from three different transmission controls conveniently located in the CommandARM™ Console: CommandX™, CommandX Plus, and CommandX Pro.
Infinitely Variable Transmission (IVT™)
With a single lever, you can smoothly shift up from 0 to 26 or 31 mph (40 or 50 km/h) — and any speed in between, including creeper speeds as low as 164 feet (50 m) per hour. The transmission and engine work together to keep the tractor at desired speed, responding to changing load conditions. Choose from three transmission controls: CommandX, CommandX Plus, and CommandX Pro.
Drive Lever Options (e23, IVT, EVT)
The CommandX™ drive controls are a critical piece of the John Deere operator experience — giving you the freedom to choose the drive control lever that best fits you and your operation. Select from CommandX™, CommandX™ Plus, or CommandX™ Pro. As you move up the lineup, the drive lever suite adds increasing levels of customization and drive-preference options — CommandX, CommandX Plus, and CommandX Pro — so you can choose the drive experience that's right for you.
e23™ PowerShift™ Transmission
The e23™ PowerShift option pairs the benefits of a mechanical transmission with the ease of an infinitely Variable Transmission (IVT™). With 23 forward gears evenly spaced 15 percent apart to fit your different operating conditions and implements, shifting is responsive and precise. Plus, you can maintain peak ground speed at reduced engine rpms to save fuel. Choose from three transmission controls: CommandX, CommandX Plus, and CommandX Pro.
The AutoClutch feature is integrated. When you want to stop, just press the brake pedal. AutoClutch handles the rest automatically.
16-Speed PowerShift™ Transmission
It's simple, reliable, cost-effective, field-proven and fully automatic. The 16-speed PowerShift transmission delivers smooth on-the-go power delivery for fuel-saving performance. No need to stop the tractor or press in the clutch gears; the transmission automatically shuttle-shifts between forward and reverse.
Intelligence and Productivity
Integrated precision technology comes standard to help you connect your machines and make data-driven decisions to improve yields and increase productivity.
Integrated StarFire™ 7500 Receiver with SF-RTK
The integrated StarFire 7500 — with SF-RTK — delivers next-generation performance and dependability. A multi-constellation satellite signal helps to reduce time needed to achieve full signal accuracy. Season-to-season repeatability helps to minimize guidance lines, coverage, and boundary drift year after year. Up to 73% faster pull-in times, compared to previous models.
Rear Implement Ethernet
Be prepared to enable high-speed data flow between the tractor and implement, once implement ethernet becomes available on planters and other implements. This will allow you to see more of your implement data in better quality than ever before.
AutoTrac™ Turn Automation
Sit back, relax, and operate hands-free with AutoTrac™ Turn Automation. Tractor and implement controls are completely automated at every headland turn, and the tractor steers itself, for complete convenience and quality field work. Ask your dealer for a demo.
Autonomy Ready for the Future
New technologies like the G5Plus, StarFire 7500 Receiver, rear implement ethernet, and more help pave the path for you to adopt autonomy. The Autonomy Ready option equips your tractor with hardware components needed to operate autonomously in the future.5
G5Plus Display
The brighter, crisper display and added processing power of the G5Plus CommandCenter™ make applications you already use run even better. And, with the G5Plus Display, you'll get 35% more screen space to add additional maps and widgets, 3x faster processing for quicker boot times, and clear 1080p HD resolution. It's all easier with the G5Plus .
JDLink™
With free JDLink™ connectivity, you can stream machine and agronomic data from your tractor to your John Deere Operations Center™ account. And you'll be connected directly to your John Deere dealer who can, with your permission, provide remote diagnostics and proactive support. All with no subscriptions, no service fees, and no end or renewal dates.
Wireless Data Transfer
Easily share data with trusted advisors to turn your information into a plan. Send files wirelessly to your operators in the field, and once they're done, all the information is sent back to your John Deere Operations Center account to review.
John Deere Operations Center™
Access field, crop and machine information anywhere, anytime, on your desktop computer or mobile device through John Deere Operations Center. Plus, with more than 140 connected software tools, including Harvest Profit and other major farm management systems used by agronomists, you can make the most out of your data.
Built for Every Acre
From pulling heavy tillage implements to large planters to side-dressing crops, the 8 Series Tractors deliver more horsepower choices and greater comfort than before. With advanced steering technology, suspension systems and a 31 mph (50 km/h) transport option on 8R 250–410 models, these tractors are also right at home on the road. Plus, on 8RX Tractors with ExactRate™ tanks and a Planter using ExactShot™ technology, cover 6x the acres between fills.6
Wide Row Spacing Options
Get new row spacing options with 132 inch (335 cm), 136 inch (345 cm), 144 inch (366 cm), and 152 inch (386 cm) row spacing kits available on 8RX 310–410 models in all four track widths. ExactRate™ liquid fertilizer system is available on all these configurations.
Narrow Track Option For Specialty Crops
Optional 16.5-inch (41.9 cm) wide tracks for both front and rear 8RX 310–410 models are ideal for sugar beets and select high-value crop operations. These tracks fit narrow rows and help reduce soil compaction during planting and harvest.
ExactRate™ Tractor Tanks
The 8RX Tractor with optional ExactRate™ Tractor Tanks makes applying high-rate, liquid fertilizer easier than any aftermarket solution can. A 1,000-gallon (3,785 L) capacity reduces refill stops. And an integrated design ensures these tanks won't block an operator's visibility — or their way into or out of the tractor.
Integrated Front 3-point Hitch and PTO
Integrated front hitch and PTO make the 8R Tractors impressive performers in front-implement applications. The hitch can be factory installed on all 8R Tractors equipped with Independent Link Suspension (ILS™). A premium front hitch option gives you a choice of one or two front SCVs and auxiliary couplers. The integrated and compact style maintains full maneuverability even with large front tires. This front hitch on 8R 250–410 models has a maximum lift capacity7 of 8240 lb. (3740 kg).
Front hitch also available through field installation.
Rear 3-Point Hitch-Lift Capacity
Handle some of the largest mounted implements in the industry, including large planters. 8R, 8RT and 8RX Tractors can be equipped with a rear hitch to handle up to 20,000 lb. (9072 kg).
Category 4 Drawbar
Get added load-bearing strength to handle large-capacity and extra-wide implements with an optional Category 4 drawbar and 2-inch (50.8 mm) hitch pin with heavy-duty drawbar support and 11,000 lb. (4990 kg) tongue weight capacity. Ideal for grain carts and slurry wagons.
Hydraulic Capacity
The heavy-duty hydraulic system boasts plenty of reserve capacity to operate large hydraulic motors, even at reduced engine speeds. Your hydraulic needs are covered with choice of single or dual pump with flow up to 84 gallons per minute (318 L/min).
Electrohydraulic SCVs
Choose up to six rear electrohydraulic selective control valves (SCVs) with adjustable flow rates, timed detents and breakaway couplers to meet your needs. Precise control of the SCV hydraulic flow lets you fine-tune flow rates for any application. SCVs are conveniently controlled through the CommandARM™ or the optional CommandX™ Pro for single-lever control of tractor speed, direction and implement functions.
PTO Options
A fully independent, 1-3/4-in. (45 mm), 1000-rpm PTO is standard equipment and specially designed for high-power, heavy PTO loads that require full horsepower above 150 PTO hp (110.3 PTO kW). Our 8R, 8RT and 8RX Tractors offer extra mechanical and electrical speed-change PTO options to deliver the versatility and flexibility you need for your implements.
Front Axle Options: MFWD or ILS™
Choose a mechanical front-wheel-drive (MFWD) axle or Independent Link Suspension (ILS™). Both feature electro-hydraulic automatic engagement and deliver the drawbar power needed in most conditions. The optional 1500 Series MFWD lets you add front duals for load capacity, traction, and flotation. Industry-leading ILS delivers exceptional ride quality with minimal power hop and more power to the ground to help you stay comfortable and productive. ILS provides 10 in. (25.4 cm) of travel to keep front duals in contact with the ground, so you can work faster and more comfortably.
AirCushion™ Suspension
The 8RT Tractors are the only 2-track tractor with AirCushion™ axle suspension and a true 4-post cab suspension. AirCushion suspension delivers 15-in. (38 cm) vertical travel between the tracks and the frame combined with 4-in. (10.2 cm) of vertical travel in the cab suspension, isolating the operator from rough field conditions. The result: faster working speeds over rough ground to get more work done. The entire system is fully automatic. No adjustments needed.
Tire Options
Choose from a wide selection of tires to fit a variety of row-crop, broadacre and transport applications, including Group 48 duals and Group 49 tire options. Bridgestone® VF tire options (5308/5309) are now available. Group 49s have a larger diameter and longer footprint for improved traction and reduced compaction when compared to smaller tires of the same section-width and design. Low Sidewall (LSW®) Tires enable a large footprint without duals, and at a lower inflation pressure than traditional tires. Ideal for farmers with narrow transport requirements and tough field conditions. Optional on select 8R Tractors.
John Deere Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS)
Inflate and deflate quickly from the seat of the cab at 2PSI per minute. Change settings from the cab with the press of a button. Lower tire pressure increases your footprint by up to 25%, reducing slip in the field by 2% to 4%. This lets you boost field productivity by 6% while reducing compaction and smearing.8 Increase tire pressure for transport, allowing you to reduce the contact area, increasing fluid efficiency and reducing tire wear.
31 mph (50 km/h) Transport Option
Move faster. Haul more. 8R Tractors equipped with the e23™ Transmission, Infinitely Variable Transmission (IVT™), or Electric Variable Transmission (EVT) allow you to transport up to 31 mph (50 km/h). Row-crop and wide-section duals are available.
Note: Always ballast your tractor according to Operator's Manual.
