SLC John Deere 5600: water-cooled tractor with a John Deere engine and a choice of two- or four-wheel drive, built in Brazil
SLC John Deere was a Brazilian joint venture in agricultural machinery that built tractors with John Deere engines and technology for the South American market, before the brand became fully part of John Deere. The 5600 model sits on the collective page for further models outside the separately named ranges.

The 5600 is powered by a water-cooled John Deere engine and was offered with either two-wheel drive (2 WD) or four-wheel drive (MFWD). The engine runs on diesel. No figures for weight, displacement or top speed are available for this model. The successor model continued as the John Deere 5600.
The choice between two- and four-wheel drive marks a versatile field tractor, the kind used across varying ground conditions and farm sizes in the South American agricultural market. Production in Brazil was aimed chiefly at the country's farming sector with its large soybean, maize and sugarcane growing areas.
Buying a used tractor from a joint venture of this kind is worth clarifying whether spare parts are available through today's John Deere network, since the original brand no longer exists on its own. Also worth checking at inspection are the function of whichever drive type is fitted, hydraulic tightness, the condition of the cooling system and any documentation confirming the model's origin.
