Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
This is the John Deere TM1460 repair manual for the 4555, 4755, 4955, 4560, 4760, and 4960 tractors, all built around the 6076 diesel engine. It is the factory repair volume, 906 pages of the exact remove, inspect, assemble, and torque procedures John Deere wrote for its own service technicians, covering both the 55 Series (Version A) and 60 Series (Version B) machines for the North American and European markets.
The manual is organized by system: engine service, fuel and air, electrical repair, the Quad-Range and Power Shift power trains, differential and final drive, steering and brakes, hydraulics, and the operator station. Torque charts, clearances, and specifications open each group.
With it you can pull and reinstall the front axle, rebuild a transmission clutch pack, service the hydraulic pump, or trace an electrical fault, working to the correct values instead of guessing. Delivered as an instant PDF download you can read on any device or print.
