John Deere 6010SE Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
Hitch category note
Category matters as much as capacity. The John Deere 6010SE is listed with Category 2, so implement pins and hitch width need to suit that setup
PTO and weight context
Use the rear lift spec first, then use rear PTO horsepower is 75 hp and operating weight is 8,514 lb (3,862 kg) to judge whether the implement is sensible for real work
Rear implement matching
Rear hitch capacity is most useful when comparing actual implement weights, especially for large mounted implements, heavy tillage tools, big mower, large planter, and heavy ballast setup
