John Deere 2210 Troubleshooting
The
John Deere 2210 sub-compact utility tractor was manufactured between 2003 and
2006. The John Deere 2210 powertrain system components: Yanmar 3TNE74 4-cycle
three-cylinder indirect injection liquid-cooled naturally aspirated diesel
engine and 2-range hydrostatic transmission with infinite forward and reverse
gears.
A 61.4 cubic inches (1.05L) engine has a cylinder bore of 2.91" (74 mm),
piston stroke of 3.07" (78 mm), and maximum power of 23 hp (17.1 kW).
The maximum forward speed - 4.3 mph (6.9 km/h) using low range or 8.5
mph (13.7 km/h) using high range, and maximum reverse speed - 3.2 mph
(5.2 km/h) using low range or 6.5 mph (10.4 km/h) using high. The open
center hydraulic system used a gear pump with a rated capacity of 3 gpm
(11.4 lpm). The hydraulic pressure is 137 bar (1990 psi).
The John Deere 2210 is equipped with a power steering system, wet disc
brakes, 18x8.50-10 front tires, and 26x12.00-12 rear tires. The
wheelbase is 57.1" (1450 mm). The tractor is compatible with 54" or 62"
mid-mount 3-blade mower decks with hydraulic lift system, 46"
front-mount single-stage snowblower with clearing height of 12" (305
mm), 54" front-mount blade with cutting depth of 3.5" (89 mm), and John
Deere 210 front-end loader with lift capacity to full height of 622 lbs
(282 kg).
