The John Deere 5125ML Specialty Tractor
We took special measures to make sure the 5125ML performs above and beyond your expectations. Because ‘special’ is our specialty.
Sometimes in life, we all just want to feel a little special— a pat on the back, a free donut at the coffee shop…and premium features in a specialty tractor. We know the feeling. Meet the John Deere 5125ML Specialty Tractor. Sure, all the necessary features are there for a productive operation: low clearance, precise maneuverability, and ease-of-use. But we built in a few special items, as well. How about higher in-class horsepower—125 hp—and increased hitch capacity, allowing you to handle larger implements for greater efficiency with your tree nut and fruit crops. Oh, about those implements …our optional Pressure and Flow Compensated (PFC) hydraulic system allows for smoother, faster responses in all levels of operation. And the increased cooling package extends wear life while decreasing fluid usage. Plus, we added a heat shield to the isolated operator station, reducing heat blowback so you can remain cool and comfortable throughout the day.
