Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
TM1021 is John Deere's technical manual for the 6600, SideHill 6600 and 7700 combines. Repair, diagnosis and specifications are all in this one book.
It covers the 303, 329, 362 and 404 engines, including the 404 Turbo, plus the Sundstrand hydrostatic drive, power steering, brakes and the SideHill leveling system. It includes the wiring diagrams, the hydraulic system diagram and step-by-step diagnosis charts.
The chapters run by system: headers, feeder house, separator, grain tank and augers, then major drives.
