Compact Utility Tractor
The bold styling of the tractor provides an attractive and functional appearance similar to that of the larger agricultural tractors. Benefits of this styling include:
The result gives the tractor a distinctive appearance and feel.
NOTE: If tractor is equipped with optional field-installed vertical exhaust, exhaust pipe must be removed before opening and closing the hood of the tractor.
The Yanmar 3-cylinder, TNV Series diesel engine features a high torque reserve that provides plenty of power under heavy loads.
This engine features lower levels of exhaust emissions and reduced noise levels. The engine meets all current emission requirements for Stage IIIB emission standards.
The 1.6-L displacement, naturally aspirated, 3TNV Yanmar diesel engine provides 24.5 kW (32.8 hp) to the 3033R Tractor.

The 3R Series Tractor is available with an exclusive three-range electronic hydrostatic (eHydro) transmission.
Sauer-Danfoss® supplies both the pump and motor. This ensures that the components are matched to each other, providing maximum efficiency.
The electronic hydrostatic transmission is ideally suited for jobs where productivity is a must, such as loader or mower applications.
Twin Touch™ foot controls allow selecting both directions of travel and speed with a touch of the toe.
Key features of the eHydro transmission are:
Sauer-Danfoss eHydro transmission is used for reliable operation. Durability features include:
1) Large, forged trunnion shaft with larger support bearings to reduce vibration and noise.
2) Center section made from durable cast aluminum, which is 10 percent stronger.
3) Transmission oil cooler cools transmission oil for longer transmission life.
Safety features of the eHydro transmission include:
John Deere's Twin Touch foot controls offer several key advantages over competitive hydrostatic transmission (HST) tractor models.
Key advantages over competitive HST tractor models:
Integrated eHydro features
The eHydro convenience controls have been integrated into a single module. Combining features such as SpeedMatch™, LoadMatch™, MotionMatch, and automotive-style cruise control pulls the maximum efficiency out of the eHydro transmission tractors. All of these features are standard on the 3R models and deliver an easier and more comfortable user experience.
An automotive-style cruise control is standard equipment on the 3R Series Tractors. Cruise control is electronically engaged and disengaged and is located on the right-hand operator console.
LoadMatch is an industry exclusive and a standard feature on the 3R Series Tractors.
If torque requirements increase significantly, the transmission will reduce the tractor's drive speed to compensate for the increased load on the transmission, maximizing torque to drive wheels and minimize stalls.
Controls automatically adjust LoadMatch compensation depending on the tractors application. PTO applications require less engine speed fluctuation, therefore adjusts the amount of droop depending on PTO speed. This adjustment increases efficiency and optimizes engine speed and torque output based on tractor application.
While typically left on, LoadMatch can be turned off with the right-hand console controls.
MotionMatch
The MotionMatch, standard on the 3R Series Tractors, is located on the right-hand console. It offers seven settings for adjusting the rollout or decelerate when the pedal is released.
This icon indicates longer accelerate and decelerate distances
SpeedMatch, standard on the 3R Series Tractors, further enhances the eHydro cruise control functions by allowing the operator to preset maximum speed. Once this feature is engaged, the operator must stroke the travel pedal fully to meet the operator preset speed. This function will improve accuracy and safety, particularly at lower travel speed applications.
Rotary tilling or spraying applications are examples of where SpeedMatch can be applied. SpeedMatch will work in both the forward and reverse set speeds.
NOTE: Automotive-style cruise control and SpeedMatch can be used in conjunction with LoadMatch to maximize productivity.

The PowrReverser transmission, available on 3038R Tractors, offers a hydraulically shifted forward-to-reverse transmission. This allows for clutchless shuttle shifting between forward and reverse with one lever for quick and easy direction change.
The 12x12 PowrReverser transmission's hydraulically actuated wet clutch takes the place of the dry-type traction clutch. Two multi-disk clutch packs (one forward and one reverse) are hydraulically actuated when the directional (reverser) lever is placed in either the forward or reverse position.
Each clutch pack consists of three large, 13-cm (5-in.) diameter clutch disks that are oil cooled, allowing excellent heat dissipation and extended clutch life.
Key features of the PowrReverser are:
NOTE: 3R PowrReverser Tractors are NOT compatible with mid power take-off (PTO). They are not compatible from the factory or field installed.
The operator's station is designed for easy entry to/exit from the tractor.
Conveniently placed pedals, as well as repositioned operator controls, provide for a clean and flat platform design, giving the operator plenty of leg room.
Key features of the operator's station include:
John Deere ComfortGard cab tractors are some of the most comfortable, quiet, and easy-to-use cab tractors available. This premium solution was developed using extensive customer research and validation tools, and some of the most advanced design techniques.
The following ComfortGard cab tractor models are available:
Cab tractors are designed for those operators who demand superior performance.
Whether doing loader work, front implement work (such as snow removal), mowing, tilling, rotary cutting, or light hay work, the cab tractors have the versatility and muscle to get the job done, all while protecting the operator from the elements.
Operators are sure to appreciate what this cab has to offer — beginning with an isolated cab. These cabs are designed with robust mounting points integrated into the rollover protective structure (ROPS) with a unique offset mounting design that provides an ultra-quiet ride.
The 4-post ROPS design, carefully laid-out interior, and fuel tank located under the left rear side of the operator's platform provide a full 360 degrees of visibility.
Operators are well-protected from the elements with a high-performance climate-control system providing heating and air conditioning.
Optional lighting includes:
Standard air-ride seat with a deluxe cloth two-piece seat with adjustable backrest and integrated armrests.
