John Deere-Lanz 310 and 710 – the 10-series from Mannheim, successor to the 0-series numbering: three to four cylinders, 23.5 to 36.8 kW
Shortly after the 0-series, John Deere-Lanz at the Mannheim plant switched to 10-series type numbers: the 310 and 710 follow the same logic as their 0-series predecessors but carry the new numbering ending in 10. The engines are three- and four-cylinder diesels. From the mid-1960s the Lanz name finally disappeared from the type designation altogether, and the Mannheim models ran from then on simply as John Deere.

The register lists 2 versions of 23.5 to 36.8 kW from three to four cylinders of 2,490 to 3,320 cm³ at 1,950 to 2,400 rpm, unladen weights from 1,978 to 2,234 kg, lengths from 3,400 to 3,530 mm, widths from 1,580 to 1,790 mm and heights from 1,570 to 1,750 mm; one version delivers 50 hp.
Like the 0-series, the 10-series was common in West Germany on medium arable and grassland farms, with Fendt, Deutz and Eicher as direct competitors; the change in type numbers accompanied the gradual shift from the Lanz brand to the plain John Deere designation in the following years.
On a used example, what counts is the condition of clutch, gearbox and rear axle, tightness of the injection pump, rust on sheet-metal parts, and the limited parts supply for these early Mannheim models, which runs through specialist tractor restorers.

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.
