Utility Tractors

Jobs feel easier when comfort comes standard. The Premium Cab on the 5E 3‑Cylinder Tractor is designed for operators to work comfortably in any weather while getting more value from the same‑size utility tractor. With exclusive features like a sunroof with sunshade and Electronic Quick Raise‑Lower (EQRL) hitch controls, the 5E Premium Cab delivers more comfort and more to experience throughout the workday.

• Controls at your fingertips including the ergonomic controls on the right-hand console
• Smooth ride for any operator by adjusting the air suspension seat to the operator's weight and height
• Training new operators is easier with the instructional seat that can be folded away when not in use
• Listen to music or make hands-free calls with included Bluetooth radio and microphone
• See clearly out the back window thanks to rear windshield wiper and washer
• Light the night with LED headlights and work lights for improved visibility
• Gain visibility above roof line when stacking bales or let in air on a nice day with sunroof
• Access through right-hand door makes grabbing items from cab easy from either side
• Exit the cab and find your way home or to the truck thanks to go-home lighting
• Effortlessly shut the rear window with the improved grab handle

Simplify repetitive rear hitch lifting and lowering tasks with the Electric Quick Raise Lower (EQRL) on 5E 3-Cylinder Premium Cabs. EQRL uses one button to raise to transport height and another to lower the rear hitch back to your prescribed depth.

• Reduce effort performing raise/lower functions of rear hitch
• Save time setting the prescribed depth and consistently returning to it
• Accurately maintain depth or lift height
• Comfortably complete repeatable tasks with ergonomic controls at your fingertips and proximity to other common controls like throttle, PTO, and MFWD engagement

EQRL efficiency gains:

• Moving bales – keeping your rear bale spear depth perfectly set to align to the center of the bale then raise to transport height
• Disking/Mowing – raise mower when making turns and return to desired height
• Box Blade/Land planning – creating smooth surfaces for your driveway or field
• Snow blading/blowing – reduce the risk of damaging driveways and roads

Overview

When leaving the field or parking the tractor in the shed, Go-Home lighting will provide light as you make your way to your vehicle or house. Go Home lighting is standard on all 5E 3-cylinder tractors. Included as a base feature with standard and Premium Cab on 5E 3-Cylinder tractors

• Adjust your Go-Home Lighting setting on the new LED primary display with 4 operator settings. (Off, 60 Seconds, 180 Seconds, and 300 Seconds)
• Go-Home Lighting will be triggered once the operator turns off the ignition and exits the tractor.

The same powerful, reliable engine you love, but now no regen required on 5E 3-Cylinder models while still meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Final Tier 4 (FT4) exhaust emissions regulations. The John Deere PowerTech™ 3029 EWR engine utilizes a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) aftertreatment system – with no DEF fluid, no DPF, and no regen required, you can focus on completing your jobs while your tractor keeps providing the power you need.

• Provide excellent torque and fuel efficiency
• See over the hood with compact aftertreatment design
• Outstanding performance and durability

The engine in this machine is not equipped with a spark arrestor muffler. It is a violation of California Public Resource Code Section 4442 to use or operate this engine on or near any forest-covered, brush-covered or grass-covered land unless the exhaust system is equipped with a spark arrestor meeting any applicable local or state laws.
