John Deere’s 3D Series compact utility tractors, including the 3025D (pictured), 3035D and 3043D models, features three horsepower levels: 25HP, 35HP and 43HP respectively, a weight of 2,778 pounds and a hauling capacity of 4,000 pounds. One of the most notable features on the 3D Series is the gear-driven transmission, with two ranges and four speeds each, offering a total of eight in forward and reverse.
The location of the fender-mounted gear shift lever provides comfort and enhanced control by avoiding the awkward movement of shifting gears between the knees. The rugged drivetrain and heavy-duty components such as a large spiral bevel gear provide maximum durability and increase torque and power to the ground.
