Cummins® X15 (15-L [912 cu in] displacement) engine

John Deere and Cummins have partnered to provide customers with a reliable, productive and efficient engine solution in the X15 15L engine. Extensive work has been done between John Deere and Cummins on software development and other engine/tractor application interface points to provide producers with the performance and efficiency they have come to expect from John Deere.

The X15 has followed the same building block approach to meet emissions requirements as similar John Deere engines. This allows John Deere to provide common technologies to producers throughout different horsepower and engine displacement offerings ensuring a consistent experience for producers. Just like the other two engine offerings in the 9 Family of tractors, the X15 features exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and an exhaust aftertreatment combination of a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to meet the near-zero NOx and particulate matter (PM) emissions standards.

X15 technology

VGT turbocharger – the X15 utilizes a single Cummins VGT™ turbocharger which features electric actuation for infinite adjustment.

Cooled EGR –system has been rebalanced for use with SCR, reducing flow volume and minimizing diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) consumption levels.

Fully integrated electronic controls – a single electronic control module (ECM) controls everything from air intake to exhaust aftertreatment.

Cummins particulate filter and SCR – Cummins particulate filter operates as a nearly passive device, with minimal regeneration required.

Cummins and VGT are a trademarks of Cummins Incorporated.

Standard CommandViewâ„¢ III cab offers unsurpassed amenities

The standard CommandView III cab offers unsurpassed visibility, operator comfort, control placement, and ride and sound quality.

Features:

  • ComfortCommandâ„¢ seat with air suspension, lumbar support, swivel, fore-aft and lateral attenuation, backrest angle adjustment, adjustable left-hand armrest, and 40-degree right-hand seat swivel
  • Operator presence system that warns if the operator is out of the seat while operating key functions
  • Folding instructional seat
  • CommandARMâ„¢ with integrated controls
  • 4100 or 4600 Generation 4 CommandCenterâ„¢
  • Air conditioner and heater with automatic temperature controls (ATC).

9R/9RT e18â„¢ with Efficiency Managerâ„¢

Efficiency Manager allows for operation like an IVT™ on the 18-speed PowerShift™ transmission. With Efficiency Manager engaged, the operator no longer has to manage the engine revolutions per minutes (rpm) and gear selection for the most efficient level of operation possible. Efficiency Manager does that automatically by shifting up and throttling back depending on the load on the tractor.

JDLinkâ„¢ services and Service ADVISORâ„¢ diagnostic systems

JDLink

JDLink is the John Deere telematics system designed for operators and managers who desire to take their operations to the next level of productivity and efficiency without leaving the office. Whether it is receiving an e-mail or text message, users can manage the operation in real-time without being in the cab. Using the power of JDLink can optimize productivity, increase uptime, and boost profits with JDLink information all accessible from a laptop, desktop, or mobile device.

Service ADVISOR

Service ADVISOR diagnostics greatly assist in reducing service costs and downtime. It allows the John Deere service technician to readily extract vital information about tractor malfunctions through the Service ADVISOR data port. Diagnostic codes and controller area network (CAN) bus statistics stored by the tractor and visible in the CommandCenter™ display are used by service technicians to isolate, identify, and resolve problems.

Diagnostics and CAN bus statistics are not normally used by the operator. Access and use of trouble codes should only be done by a qualified, factory-trained John Deere service technician.

Power take-off (PTO), 1-3/4 1000 rpm

Fully independent 1000-rpm PTO is available as a factory- or field-installed option.

  • Available on all 9 Family Ag Tractors
  • 4.45-cm (1-3/4-in.) diameter shaft.

General maintenance

Regular service and maintenance are essential to the performance, productivity, and longevity of all farm machinery.

Maximum uptime is an important element of productivity.

  • 9 Series Tractor service points are quick and simple to check.
  • Greater accessibility improves serviceability.

All items in the daily service schedule can be performed without the use of tools:

  • Engine oil, hydraulic oil, coolant level, and water separator can be conveniently accessed from ground level without having to open the hood. Engine oil can be checked by simply removing one small engine side panel.

e18â„¢ PowerShiftâ„¢ transmission (PST) with Efficiency Managerâ„¢ feature

The e18 transmission delivers smooth shifting and intuitive controls in a reliable 18-speed PST transmission. The e18 transmission with enhanced Efficiency Manager is standard equipment on all 9 Series Tractors.

Efficiency Manager is automatically enabled in auto and custom modes. Efficiency Manager can be turned on in manual mode by selecting the set speed one or set speed two button on the CommandARMâ„¢ console. The set speed adjuster on the top of the single-lever gear selector allows the operator to dial in the desired ground speed to establish set speed one or two. Once engaged, Efficiency Manager will manage the engine rpm and gear selection to maintain the desired working speed. To reach the desired set speed, the throttle must be set to full engine rpm.
