Transmission - Information on Maximum Speed

Tractors authorized for a top speed of 50 km/h can be permanently downrated to 40 km/h. This may be advisable, if for instance particular legal requirements for 50 km/h tractors cannot be met. Examples include a different class of driver's license, or similar restrictions. If the top speed is changed, this must be recorded in the vehicle documents.

For more information, refer this issue to your John Deere™ dealer.

NOTE: It is only possible to uprate the tractor from 40 km/h to 50 km/h if the tractor was equipped for 50 km/h before leaving the factory.

For tractors that have been equipped for a top speed of 50 km/h ex works and whose top speed has been reduced to 40 km/h, no declaration of conformity can be issued, for legal reasons.
