The register lists here 4 versions with 26 to 41 kW (35 to 55 hp) with John Deere diesel engines.

The tractors served the segment, central to India, of small and medium field tractors for rice and field cultivation on family-run farms, a market in which John Deere gained a foothold through the joint venture with Larsen & Toubro before the brand later manufactured independently in India.

When buying used, on the John Deere engines operating hours and the condition of the injection pump and cooling system matter; also check the transmission, clutch, hydraulic pump and PTO for wear, and inspect tyres, brakes and the chassis for rust, with parts for these early India models today mainly sourced through local John Deere dealers.

John Deere still exists as a group today and continues to supply engine parts through its global dealer network, regardless of the fate of the original L&T joint venture. With output up to 41 kW, these models fell within three-point category I under ISO 730, and the PTO ran single-speed at 540 rpm.
