Part of the John Deere Repair Manuals.
This is the shop-floor repair manual for the 2012-2016 John Deere 9R articulated tractors: 9360R, 9410R, 9460R, 9510R and 9560R, with both the PowerTech 9.0 L and 13.5 L engines. It is a teardown and rebuild book, not a diagnostic one: engine removal, fuel and cooling service, the 18-speed Power Shift and the Mechanical Shift transmission down to clutch packs and wear limits, single and double reduction axles, steering, brakes, hydraulics, the cab, and the hinge and gudgeon articulation joint that makes these tractors what they are. Torques, pressures, spring lengths and reusability limits are printed where you need them. The wiring group covers harness routing and replacement for every option and region.
