The John Deere 6M is a utility tractor for loader work, hay and everyday jobs around the farm. Models run from 95 to 250 rated engine horsepower, and Intelligent Power Management (IPM) adds up to 20 HP of boost in transport and non-stationary PTO work like mowing and baling.
Koenig Equipment sells and services the 6M lineup across Ohio and Indiana. Request a quote on any model and our team will help you match horsepower, transmission and loader to your operation.

The 6M 95 through 6M 140 use a 4.5 L PowerTech engine, and the 6M 145 and up use a 6.8 L engine. Within each size, compare PTO horsepower to the implements you run, then choose a transmission.

What is Intelligent Power Management on a 6M?
Intelligent Power Management adds up to 20 HP of boost in transport and non-stationary PTO applications, such as mowing and baling, so the tractor has extra power when the load calls for it. Every 6M model lists it.
Is a 6M a good loader tractor?
Yes. The 6M 95, for example, has a 94.5 in. wheelbase and a 14 ft turning radius for tight spaces, and with a 600R loader it lifts 4,187 lb (MSL) or 5,155 lb (NSL) at full height. Larger models pair with the 640R and 680R loaders.
What is the 6MH 155?
The 6MH 155 is a 6M Series tractor built with a high crop drop flange-type rear axle and 320/90R50 tires front and rear. It is rated at 155 engine HP, with a 20-speed AutoQuad Plus standard.
How much can a 6M lift with the 3-point hitch?
It depends on the model and hitch option. The 6M 95 rear hitch lifts 6,057 lb standard or 7,930 lb optional, while the 6M 145 lifts up to 14,978 lb behind the lift points standard or 16,850 lb optional. A Category 3N front hitch rated at 7,269 lb at the hook ends is available.
