This series of engines was developed to meet environmental requirements for Tier 4 (2025R) emission requirements by featuring lower levels of both exhaust and emissions.

* As per 97/68/EC ISO at rated speed.

Yanmar TNV Series engine offers these features:

  • Economical cast-in block cylinder design for good cooling and long life
  • Indirect fuel injection on the 2025R uses a pre-combustion chamber to give the engine a smooth and quiet operation
  • Direct fuel injection on the 2032R injects fuel on top of the pistons and allows for more efficient combustion and fuel economy
  • Aluminum alloy piston with built-in steel struts are lightweight to reduce connection rod bearing loads and provide good heat transfer characteristics
    • Design permits tighter tolerances and neutralizes expansion of the piston, thereby reducing blow-by gas and generating less noise from the piston slap
    • Higher top rings on the piston and a thinner head gasket greatly reduces the volume of unburned waste gases and increases combustion efficiency
  • Timing gear teeth have a roll-off profile giving almost no clash, no noise, and no backlash
  • Special flywheel flange seals flywheel air turbulence noise inside the flywheel housing
  • High-torque reserve provides plenty of power under heavy load yet retains excellent fuel economy
  • Fuel filter with replaceable element
  • Full-pressure lubrication system provides filtered oil under pressure to all vital engine parts
  • Glow plugs on the 2025R provide quick starts in temperatures down to 0° F. (Optional engine coolant heater attachment will assist starting under more extreme conditions.)
  • Air intake heater cold starting aid on the 2032R provides quick starts in temperatures down to
    0° F. (Optional engine coolant heater attachment will assist starting under more extreme conditions.)
  • Auto-bleeding fuel system means there is no special bleeding required if the tractor runs out of fuel
  • This system will self-prime the injection pump, lines, and injectors, providing fast fuel recovery
  • Key start and shutoff eliminates fuel shutoff knob
  • Electric solenoid shuts fuel supply off immediately when key is turned off
  • See-through coolant recovery tank permits operator to check coolant level without removing radiator cap
Dry-type air cleaner Dry-type air cleaner
  • Dry-type air cleaner (1) with safety element (2) keeps dirt and other contaminants out of the engine
    • Safety element (second filter) will protect engine if primary filter would develop a leak
    • Protects engine when servicing primary filter
  • Air cleaner service indicator is standard equipment on all models and alerts owner as to when to service the air filter
  • The one-piece hood can be easily raised for full access to engine compartment
  • Front grille screen and sides on one-piece hood provide excellent flow of air to the engine compartment
  • Sealed radiator compartment keeps trash and debris on outside of hood
  • Improved fuel fill is relocated to right side of hood allows easier refueling
  • Horizontal exhaust discharges fumes away from the operator station, reducing noise and improving operator visibility and comfort.

Hydrostatic transmission
Twin Touch™ foot controls Twin Touch™ foot controls

The 2025R and 2032R hydrostatic (HST) Tractors feature a foot-controlled hydrostatic transmission.

  • Low pedal effort makes the transmission very easy to operate
  • Fluid under pressure transmits engine power to the drive wheels through a hydraulic pump and motor
  • The hydrostatic drive unit functions both as a clutch and transmission

Twin Touch foot controls allow selecting both speed and direction of travel with a touch of the toe. Ideally suited for jobs where productivity is a must, such as loader or mower applications.

  • Infinite ground speeds, even at full throttle, to match the job
  • No clutching for fast direction changes
  • Faster, easier, and more precise to operate than competitive tractors with treadle pedal design (toe-heel)
    Provides high torque for start up
  • Reduces powertrain shock loads
  • Large rubber foot pedals were designed for operator comfort and allow for convenient operation of the tractor
Speed range lever Speed range lever

Transmission has two speeds - hi and lo range.

  • The range lever is located next to the left-hand fender (A), conveniently within reach of the operator.

Kanzaki® HST transmission is used for reliable operation.

Durability features include:

1) Large forged one-piece trunnion shaft with larger support bearings that reduce vibration and noise.
2) Innovative transaxle combines an HST transmission, gear reduction axle, and clutch.
3) Pressure side filtration allows using a finer mesh filter (10 micron) than suction filtration systems used on many competitive tractors.
4) Charge pump used to deliver oil to transmission (some competitive tractors use one pump for transmission and hydraulics).
5) Oil cooler cools transmission oil for longer transmission life.

Optional iMatch™ Quick-Hitch allows for easy implement hookup
iMatch Quick-Hitch iMatch Quick-Hitch
iMatch Quick-Hitch with rotary cutter hookup iMatch Quick-Hitch with rotary cutter hookup

One of the greatest operator concerns involves difficulty in attaching tractor implements. John Deere has addressed this issue with the iMatch Quick-Hitch.
 
The iMatch Quick-Hitch provides easy hookup and a guaranteed fit for all Category 1 implements designed to meet the ASAE Category 1 Standard S278.6 for quick-attach hitches.

  • All implements require a set of bushings in order for the attachment to fit and work properly with the iMatch Quick-Hitch. One set of bushings comes with the iMatch Quick-Hitch.

 

NOTE: In the above picture with the rotary cutter, the bushing set BW15056 is shown. These bushings allow the hooks on the iMatch and the pins on the rotary cutter to fit together properly. All other implements (box blades, tillers, rear blades, etc.) will require a set of bushings to enlarge the pin to fit with the iMatch hooks. Bushings of different lengths can be found in the parts system or through a bushing supplier (see dimensions below).

  • Upper bushing
    • Inside diameter: 1.93 to 1.96 cm (0.76 to 0.77 in.)
    • Outside diameter: 3.15 to 3.18 cm (1.24 to 1.25 in.)
  • Lower bushings
    • Inside diameter: 2.24 to 2.26 cm (0.88 to 0.89 in.)
    • Outside diameter: 3.63 to 3.66 cm (1.43 to 1.44 in.)

iMatch AutoHitch is the next generation of the successful iMatch Quick-Hitch that allows operators to hook up the PTO shaft of certain PTO-driven implements. This revolutionary system is the first of its kind, allowing the operator to change from a compatible rotary cutter to a compatible rotary tiller without leaving the seat of the tractor.

 

John Deere continues to lead the way with innovative designs that ensure operators can quickly and easily change implements and attachments on the compact utility tractors with no tools and little experience needed.

I purchased my 2025r in Beaumont Texas and is cheaply built

2025R Big disappointment!

I recently traded my 2010 JD 2320 with a 62" drive over mower deck for a 2021 JD 2025R with a 60" auto-connect mower deck. I ordered this tractor and when it arrived this was sure a disappointment. The 2025R just seems cheap!! For example the individual brakes have been reduced to a single brake pedal, the drawbar has been replaced by a plate with a hole in it, the light that indicates that the 4WD is engaged no longer exists, the levers to shift the pto and hi and lo for the transmission seem very flimsy compared to the old solid levers, the rollbar no longer folds down out of the way, instead it folds down just enough to walk right in to it with your forehead when you try to walk behind the tractor and finally the pedal to lock the differential is just a rod that only sticks out about an inch. I was told by my salesman that there is an aftermarket pedal you can get for the diff lock. When I ordered this tractor I did not see the new models, but I went with 2025r Instead a 1025r because I didn't want to go backwards, but compared to my 2320 it doesn't seem to live up to the standards. I was told that the 2320 was made by Yanmar for John Deere and that the 2025R is made directly by John Deere this is probably the most disappointing part!!

This thing rocks!!

Very powerful little machine, it's great for getting into small places but is happy in wide open spaces as well.

Makes managing our land much easier

I bought the 2025R a few months back to help with my bad back. It's exceeded my expectations. We added forks, a rototiller, and post hole digger and now can do nearly anything we want. We've also used the tractor to do things that we never even thought about. While I wouldn't hesitate to buy again, I'd probably go with the smaller 1025R. While the 2025R is more stabile and comfortable for me, the 1025R would fit into smaller spaces.

Love the Tractor but……

I’ve had the 2025 Tractor for about 5 months and I love it, has plenty of power and works hard, but has couple of things that can be improved: Seat Suspension needed for harsh ride, and needs a guide on the mower deck front attachment for when removing and installing deck with loader on tractor.

Great little tractor.

I have owned the tractor for a few months. Already cleared a fence line, dug a drainage ditch, and mowed my creek property. Work perfectly.

Very happy 2025R owner

i have a 2019 2025R with loader, backhoe, 54D mower, rear Frontier blower and other non-Deere implements. It is used on our large forested property for all types of regular (mowing, snow) and periodic (box blading, digging, etc.) tasks. Perfect machine for our size property and usage pattern. While the 1025R is similar and very capable, the tire size, height, clearance, weight, ground speed, and stability differences more than justify this machine in my opinion. With tractors, more power and size is almost always better but I have found you need to buy for your expected usage and realistic "peak" uses to avoid buyers remorse. I have read about many upgrades created by just slightly underbuying. This particular tractor feels like and for me is one that allowed me to feel very satisfied without looking up at the larger frame 2-series or entry 3-series with tractor envy. This is a very capable and relatively affordable machine.

The little engine that could :) !

This compact tractor and backhoe is the perfect size for my wife and I to operate and maneuver around our little place. The manual thumb of the backhoe is a MUST HAVE!!!

Easy to use

We live on 35 acres with 30 of it rented to a local farmer. Originally purchased a 1025R, but it was just a little to small for what I was doing. The 2025 fits the bill perfectly.
