John Deere will display a range of machines at this year’s show, including tractors, combines and sprayers. One of the tractors sure to grab the attention of showgoers is the new 6R 185 model, which has been very well received since its launch last year.

The 6R185 was added to expand the manufacturer’s offerings within its short wheelbase division, building on its widely popular and bestselling tractor, the 6R 155 (formally 6155R).

The 6R 185 maintains the 2,765mm wheelbase, offering a high horsepower to weight ratio for what is a growing market.

Mazotti

Next week’s show will see the return of the Mazotti self-propelled sprayer range following on from its successful launch last year. For those not so familiar, Mazotti was bought by John Deere in 2017, but remains a fully owned subsidiary and retains its iconic branding.

The model set to be displayed is the MAF 4080.

It is fitted with a 175hp four-cylinder Deere PowerTech engine as standard, while a 225hp six-cylinder option is available. It features a Danfoss twin-pump hydrostatic drive unit and Poclain wheel motors with a four-speed internal shift.

John Deere has expanded its short wheel base tractor range with the addition of the the 6R 185.

The 4080 is equipped with a 4,200l tank and several boom options ranging from 24m to 36m working widths and individual nozzle control as standard.

Moving to the 50l/min induction hopper it is fitted with John Deere’s dual-circuit pump system, one of which is for filling and a larger 750l/min pump for spraying.

All valves are electronically controlled. Track width is hydraulically adjustable.
