For a productive harvest season

The John Deere 9870  combine harvester is made for the big farms but that does not mean that it has reached its performance peak. In this blog post, we are telling you how tuning the John Deere 9870 harvester can improve productivity and improve the result of your next harvest season. First, we will have a look at this 9870 harvester. It is as mentioned built for big farms to get efficiently through the harvest season. It is a popular choice for farmers who are working in a rugged terrain. The John Deere 9870 is the biggest harvester in the 70 series and holds a 13.5L 6-cylinder engine that from stock has 440 horsepower. 

However, the manufacturers have limited the power output within the ECU settings. This is done for a number of reasons like aligning with the standards of multiple different markets and using the same engine for different power output models. This restriction means that your John Deere 9870 is not performing to its full capabilities. Another factor that can affect the performance is the diesel engine emissions systems. Emission systems are often prone to failure before the engine has reached its full lifespan. In the next section, we will let you know how ECU tuning can solve these issues.
