Common questions
John Deere 6140D weight FAQ
How much does a John Deere 6140D weigh?
The John Deere 6140D weighs 9,920 lb (4,499 kg) using the published Operating — cab figure. Across the published configurations on this page, weight ranges from 8,730 to 13,095 lb (3,959 to 5,939 kg).
What is the operating weight of the John Deere 6140D compared with shipping weight?
Published operating weight is 9,920 lb (4,500 kg), versus 8,730–9,390 lb (3,960–4,259 kg) for shipping weight. That is roughly 1,190 lb (13.6%) 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 6140D weigh with ballast?
The published ballasted weight is 13,095 lb (5,940 kg). That is up to 4,365 lb (50%) above the lightest published configuration. Ballast can therefore change the practical hauling and ground-pressure picture substantially on this model.
Is the John Deere 6140D a heavy utility tractor?
Yes. The representative figure sits at about the 91st percentile, heavier than roughly 91% of the utility tractor peers. That puts it in the very heavy range for this comparison. It is 4,657 lb heavier than the peer-group average of 5,263 lb.
How wide is the John Deere 6140D for transport?
The maximum published tractor width is 72 in (6 ft). That is 30 in under 8.5 ft before allowing for a loader, duals, implements or other equipment that may increase transport width.
Does the John Deere 6140D weigh more than 10,000 lb?
Some configurations do. The representative published weight is 9,920 lb, and the heaviest published configuration on this page is 13,095 lb (6.55 US tons). Any trailer calculation also needs the trailer itself plus fuel, ballast, attachments and other equipment.
