TRUSET™ Precision Ag Technology

THE TRUSET™ ADVANTAGE Tired of stopping and climbing from the cab to adjust depth or basket pressure? You can adjust tillage depth and pressure in seconds – a job that could take up to 20 minutes. Do it all without leaving your cab. Using only your fingertips, you can cover more acres and lower your operating costs. And never settle for leaving yield in the field. TruSet provides in-cab adjustments on many John Deere products. The new 2660VT VariableIntensity Tillage tool features in-cab adjustments for gang angle, fore/aft, working depth, basket pressure, wing down pressure and stabilizer wheels. You can respond quickly to changing conditions, such as varying soils, high-compaction areas, heavier residue or wet areas. For example, on the 2730 combo ripper, when you change the ripper shank depth, TruSet makes adjustments to the disk depth, closing wheels and basket pressure to maintain performance. TruSet allows you to program four unique pre-sets based on how you want to till different soil types, crop residues or areas of the field, making it easy for any operator to adjust the tool for different conditions. You can individually control depth side-to-side for each section on select models from the comfort of your cab. Simply make independent depth adjustments on your John Deere Precision Ag Display in 1/10-inch (0.25 cm) increments, and adjust down-pressure of the rolling baskets from 0 to 900 psi (0 to 63.29 kg/cm). Tillage documentation and prescription functionality are also included with the TruSet system, giving you the ability to automate John Deere Precision Ag Technology into your tillage operation. Challenge the notion that accurately mapping your tillage passes doesn’t matter. With TruSet, you are able to map tillage speed, gang angle, depth and rolling basket down pressure to name a few. This provides you another data point to look at if you see differences in crop emergence or yield in a field. Not all fields are consistent in soil type, topography, residue level or soil compaction, so why should you treat the whole field the same? You can create variable depth, pressure, and gang angle (if equipped) tillage prescriptions to ensure every acre is tilled the way you want it. John Deere technology helps you get more out of your tillage pass. TruSet lets you lay the perfect groundwork for next year’s crop. And it’s only available from John Deere.
