Ideal tractor-loader combination with 600R Loader compatibility
Redesigned to improve loader operations
6120M Tractor with 600R Loader
The 600R Loader has been redesigned to work effortlessly with the model year 2020 6110M and 6120M Tractors. In cadence with the sloped hood design of the tractor, the 600R Loader features curved booms, making an ideal tractor-loader combination. This combination also includes a 22.9-cm (9-in.) reduction in overall machine and loader length, improving forward visibility by over 2.1-m (7 ft). Pairing the model year 2020 6110M or 6120M Tractor with the 600R Loader allows visibility directly to the loader attachment, providing more efficient performance with any loader application.
Panoramic roof for increased visibility
600R Loader through 6120M Tractor panoramic roof
As the lift height of the R-Series Loaders increases, the larger panoramic roof inside the model year 2020 6110M and 6120M Tractor cabs provides additional visibility to the entire lift cycle of the loader. The 600R Loader has a lift height up to 391.2 cm (154 in.), allowing an operator to stack three bales. With the larger panoramic roof, tasks that require maximum loader height can be performed more easily.
Light-emitting diode (LED) light option for variable operating conditions
6110M Tractor and 600R Loader with LED light package
To further enhance visibility, the model year 2020 6110M/6120M Tractors and 600R Loader have the option to include LED lights. With LED lights emitting from the tractor cab and the loader boom, performing loader applications in variable operating conditions is made easier. Pairing the loader LED light option with an LED light package on the 6110M or 6120M Tractor will provide unmatched visibility to enhance operator experience during any task.
Increase visibility and productivity with light packages
6155M with Premium light-emitting diode (LED) light package
Lights on the 6M Series Tractors have been positioned and designed to provide maximum visibility to the front, sides, and rear to increase productivity in any operating conditions. The updated cab lighting pattern provides 330 degrees of coverage while the hood lighting provides the remaining 30 degrees. You have two options to upgrade lighting with the Economy and Premium light packages available:
- Economy light package
- Two additional work lights in the front, side, and rear
- Premium light package
- Two additional work lights in the front, side, and rear
- All lights are LED lights
Both packages require the 14-V/150-amp alternator (code 8741) and 12-V/174-amp-hr battery (code 8747).
Reduce fuel consumption with proven, easy-to-use IVT™ transmission
IVT transmission control handle on 6M Tractor
Operators looking for a more comfortable, fuel efficient, and proven transmission can upgrade to an Infinitely Variable Transmission (AutoPowrTM/IVT) system for any 6110M through 6140M tractor. The IVT system utilizes a combination of mechanical and hydrostatic power, providing stepless and continuous power across an infinitely variable range of speeds.
The single-speed lever is used for intuitive and accurate control of ground speeds as slow as 0.05 km/h (0.03 mph) to 40 km/h (25 mph). The wheel is quick and easy to adjust with the operator’s thumb to set the maximum commanded forward or reverse speed in each speed band. Operators can also enjoy reduced fuel costs and a quieter, more comfortable ride with transport speeds being reached at lower engine rpms. Additional benefits include:
- Easy to operate
- Less shifting time for better management of implements
- Precise management of speeds
- Under acceleration, engine rpm is kept to a minimum within the engines peak torque band to reduce noise and fuel consumption
Stay connected to all machines from anywhere with JDLink™ system
John Deere 6120M with StarFire™ 6000 Receiver and tablet with JDLink
Operators looking to remotely access critical machine data and manage their fleet in one place can with JDLink. JDLink is the telematics system from John Deere that connects all machines in the field with office and mobile devices. The technology is based on a Modular Telematics Gateway (MTG) controller that collects and transmits data via a cellular network using selective data points in near-real time. With JDLink, operators can:
- Remotely view information from a computer, phone, or tablet
- Access machine data like engine hours and fuel level
- Track machine location and history
- Set up and manage geofence and curfews

Redesigned hood and improved turning radius make maneuvering in tight spaces effortless
6120M with redesigned hood and shorter wheelbase
The 6M Tractor was designed to ensure maximum maneuverability and visibility, no matter the job. With an updated sloped hood design on cab models, you can see it all – your front loader, attachments, and front-mounted implements – with an improved 5.5-m (18-ft) front view distance. This is 2.2 m (7.3 ft) more of visibility compared to previous models.
If you work in corrals and other small spaces, then you know how beneficial a shorter wheelbase can be when it comes to getting in and out of tight spots. The 6110M and 6120M feature a 17.8-cm (7-in.) shorter wheelbase (240 cm [94.5 in.]), giving you the power of a 6M Tractor with the nimbleness of a smaller tractor. Take advantage of a 4.3-m (14-ft) turning radius, perfect for cleaning out barns, working livestock, baling hay, roadside mowing applications, and more.
NOTE: These changes do not apply to the open operator station models.
Focus more on the job and less on steering with AutoTrac™ guidance on the cornerpost display
AutoTrac on cornerpost display
If you are looking for a low-cost integrated guidance system, 6M Tractors come equipped with AutoTrac guidance using the digital cornerpost display. For this straight track only feature, you no longer need an additional display or activation. To utilize AutoTrac on the cornerpost display, simply order your 6M Tractor as AutoTrac Ready (code 1758) and install a StarFire™ 6000 Receiver (code 1881). While AutoTrac makes straight passes, you can focus more on job quality and leave the field less fatigued after a long day of mowing, spraying, or other field work.
Benefits of AutoTrac on the cornerpost display include:
- Easy to access, setup, and initiate
- Eliminate implement overlap and optimize machine efficiency
- Reduce operator fatigue
- Less cost than adding an additional display and activation
If you need more capabilities, like different track types or documentation, John Deere also offers a 4240 and 4640 Universal Display. These displays enable AutoTrac guidance that provides enhanced usability, increased performance, and greater operator choice. Additional benefits include:
- On-screen mapping
- Documentation
- Section Control
John Deere 4240 Universal Display
Boost power and productivity in operations using Intelligent Power Management
6120M with Intelligent Power Management
The 6110M through 6140M Tractors come equipped with Intelligent Power Management (IPM). IPM provides a 14.9-kW (20-hp) boost for operations that use rear power take-off (PTO) in high-power applications or in transport. Benefits of IPM include improved productivity, increased acceleration, and the ability to maintain desired transport speeds. The requirements for IPM to be active include:
- Transport applications: The minimum ground speed where additional power begins to be applied for all models is 15 km/h (9.3 mph), assuming the engine is already fully loaded. Ramp-up to full additional power occurs as speed continues to increase.
- PTO activation: Power must be sensed going through the PTO drive clutch by the electronic system. When using PTO-driven implements, engine power is increased gradually when ground speed exceeds 1 km/h (0.6 mph) if the electronic system detects a correspondingly high PTO power requirement. Full power becomes available from a speed of 2.5 km/h (1.5 mph).
