The 7030er series from John Deere includes the 7930. Production: 2007–2011. The engine delivers 220 hp (161.9 kW), has 6 cylinders, with a displacement of 6,784 cm³. The engine comes from John Deere. Torque is 885 Nm. Rated speed is 2,100 rpm. The machine is 5,394 mm long, 2,208 mm wide and 3,072 mm high. The unladen weight is 8,042 kg. The wheelbase measures 2,860 mm. Ground clearance is 690 mm. Top speed is 30 km/h. The tank holds 358 litres. Transmission: 16V/16R or 20V/20R. The engine is water-cooled. Tyres: front 480/80 R 46 AS, rear 420/90 R 30 AS. The model was built in USA. The fuel is diesel. Construction: bridge-frame modular construction. The linkage is category III. The PTO runs at 540/1000 rpm. Rated output across the John Deere range ranges from 10.6 to 577.9 hp; the 7930 sits in the lower part of that range with 220 hp. Its immediate neighbours are the 770D below it with 218 hp and the 1263 above it with 221 hp. Rated output across the John Deere range ranges from 10.6 to 530 hp; here the 7930 sits in the middle of that range with 220 hp. 2622 John Deere models across 140 series are on record.

John Deere 7030 Series – the 7930 with an in-house water-cooled 6.8-litre six-cylinder engine, 220 hp and 885 Nm of torque, built from 2007 to 2011.

John Deere also builds its large field tractors for Europe at the Mannheim plant. The 7030 Series formed a generation of more powerful tractors there above the 6 Series, and the 7930 was produced in this series between 2007 and 2011. Unlike many competitors, the engine comes from John Deere's own production.

The six-cylinder diesel engine, with a displacement of 6,784 cm³, delivers 220 hp, or 161.9 kW, at 2,100 rpm and produces 885 Nm of torque. With a kerb weight of 8,042 kg, a wheelbase of 2,860 mm and a width of 2,208 mm, the tractor reaches a length of 5,394 mm and a height of 3,072 mm – dimensions that clearly place the 7930 in the class of large field tractors.

This size class is built for heavy tillage, large implements and draw-bar work requiring high pulling force, such as ploughing, cultivating or heavy trailer loads. The high torque at a relatively low rated speed of 2,100 rpm is typical of in-house tractor engines tuned for pulling power rather than high revs. The 30 km/h design speed corresponds to the T driving-licence category.

When buying a used 7930, check the cooling system for leaks and scale build-up, since the large six-cylinder engine is put under heavy thermal load at full load. The gearbox and PTO should be checked for unusual noise, and hydraulic couplings for leaks under load. Because the engine is factory-built, spare parts are only available through John Deere dealers.

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.
  • Check front and rear tyre sizes: mismatched pairs strain the drivetrain.
  • Shift the gearbox cold and warm — jumps only show up at temperature.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
