Common questions
John Deere 620 weight FAQ
How much does a John Deere 620 weigh?
The John Deere 620 weighs 6,800 lb (3,084 kg) using the published Operating figure. Across the published configurations on this page, weight ranges from 5,858 to 8,769 lb (2,657 to 3,977 kg).
What is the operating weight of the John Deere 620 compared with shipping weight?
Published operating weight is 6,800 lb (3,084 kg), versus 5,858 lb (2,657 kg) for shipping weight. That is roughly 942 lb (16.1%) more than shipping weight. Operating weight is generally the more useful starting point when estimating a ready-to-use tractor.
How much does the John Deere 620 weigh with ballast?
The published ballasted weight is 8,769 lb (3,978 kg). That is up to 2,911 lb (49.7%) above the lightest published configuration. Ballast can therefore change the practical hauling and ground-pressure picture substantially on this model.
Is the John Deere 620 a lightweight row-crop tractor?
Yes. The representative figure sits at about the 16th percentile, lighter than roughly 84% of the row-crop tractor peers. That puts it in the light range for this comparison. It is 7,206 lb lighter than the peer-group average of 14,006 lb.
How wide is the John Deere 620 for transport?
The maximum published tractor width is 86.6 in (7.2 ft). That is 15.4 in under 8.5 ft before allowing for a loader, duals, implements or other equipment that may increase transport width.
What is the John Deere 620 weight-to-horsepower ratio?
Using the page’s representative 6,800 lb weight and 48 hp power figure, the tractor carries about 141.7 lb per horsepower. A lower lb/hp number means less tractor mass for each horsepower; this is a comparison metric, not a traction or performance rating.
