Recorded operating weight runs from 3,595 to 6,125 kg, wheelbase from 2,430 to 2,650 mm, and rated speed of the listed models is 30 km/h. The flagship 6910 S joined the series only in 1999 as a particularly powerful version.
The 6010 series targeted medium to large arable and mixed farms in Europe. For a used model, check the gearbox variant, as both PowrQuad and AutoQuad versions were offered during the production run.
At outputs above 75 kW, turbocharging with an intercooler is practically standard on six-cylinder diesel engines of this generation, to reduce specific fuel consumption. The three-point hitch of the 6010 series matched category II under ISO 730 throughout the range. Parts for the 6010 series remain well available through the John Deere dealer network. AutoQuad transmissions additionally automate the change between power-shift groups, whereas with PowrQuad the driver selects the group manually; both allow shifting within one group without using the clutch under load.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
- Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
