Last week’s Farm Progress Show was the site of many new reveals, including the newly redesigned composite fuel tank for the 2017 9R Series Wheeled and Scraper Special Tractors. The fuel tank has been reworked to offer users better rear visibility from the driver’s seat and improves the overall aesthetics as well.
The composite fuel tanks also offer more efficiency for the operator by providing two fuel-fill locations, in addition to their sleeker look.
“The composite fuel tank also features a dual-fill design, allowing operators to fill the fuel tank from either side,” says Tiffany Turner, product marketing manager, John Deere. “The fuel tank capacity is 320 gallons on the 9370R and 9470R Tractors and 400 gallons on the 9529R and 9620R Tractors.”
The new tractors will be available for purchase in November. Learn more at your local John Deere Dealer.
