JD 6810 Swedish Import

[AJR75]

Morning all.

I've recently purchased a JD 6810. Generally really pleased with the tractor and the additional power and speed on the road is a welcome benefit to the 30Km/h & lower HP tractors I've been more used to.

This one was imported from Sweden and is generally speaking UK spec (maybe exported years ago?). The dash however, displays speed only in Km/h and PTO speed in m/min.

Is this a simple programming issue that can be altered in the "brain" of the tractor to bring it back to UK "english" or failing than, is there a simple conversion formula that would allow me to work out where I am PTO speed wise Vs engine speed in 540/540e/1000?

Many thanks

should be able to change yourself. I can’t remember on the 10 series but I did change from km/h to mph

download the manual it will be in it.

just put the model number in the website below. Will probably be two manuals, pick the right one based on the serial number of your tractor

Search for Equipment Publications - Technical Information Store

@335d thank you- much appreciated.

On the 6000 series there was a wee flick switch on the steering column under the wheel if you held it down for a bit it changed the readout from metric, if 10 series has the same switch try it.

Thank you- unfortunately that didn't work.

Did think I'd be clever as noticed there was a manual in the field office and following on from @335d 's post not have to download a manual.

Confidently sat in the seat, I reached for the manual only to find the bloody thing was all in Swedish!

What do you mean m/min? Also you flick that switch to choose pto or speed or whatever is displayed in the dash

The PTO speed is displayed in m/min, travel speed in Km/hr

My 6520 shows this as PTO RPM and MPH
