John Deere Erntemaschinen – other models: the collective page of combines and forage harvesters outside the named ranges, from the Zweibrücken 935 to 2266 series through the STS and WTS combines to the 7580 forage harvester, 56 to 466 kW
This page gathers the John Deere harvesting machines the register could not assign to a named range – above all combines, supplemented by the 7580 self-propelled forage harvester. A large share of the smaller models, such as the 935, 955, 1042, 1075 and 2266, come from John Deere's European plant at Zweibrücken, which from the 1960s to the 1990s built its own combine ranges specifically for the European market. With the 9000 series from the 1990s, John Deere moved to larger, more powerful combines; STS marks the rotor technology with Single Tine Separator introduced in 1999 in place of the classic straw walker, WTS the version with rubber track undercarriage (Track System) for soft and sloping ground, and HillMaster the self-levelling hillside version. The engines are throughout John Deere's own units, including the PowerTech range.

The register lists here 82 versions with 56 to 466 kW, or 75 to 625 hp, six-cylinder engines, all running on diesel.
John Deere ranks alongside Claas and New Holland among the leading combine makers worldwide; the Zweibrücken ranges shaped the European market of the post-war decades, while the STS and WTS combines have served large farms in North America and eastern Europe since the 1990s.
On the older Zweibrücken models, the condition of the threshing unit, straw walker and sieves and the availability of spares count, on the STS and WTS combines operating hours, the state of the rotor, the tracks on WTS versions and the electronics, and on the 7580 forage harvester the state of the cutting drum and knives; parts run through the John Deere network.
