2025 John Deere 714 Mulch Tiller

Crank-adjust depth control available

The crank-adjust single-point depth control is standard equipment on all models and offers the following benefits:

• More precise adjustment when changing the operating depth
• Easy access at the front of the machine
• Accurate, repeatable depth control

Simple gang depth adjustment

The three-bar disk gang model features a mechanical depth adjustment:

• Depth adjuster bolts (1) allow adjustment of individual gangs up or down within a 140-mm (5.5-in.) range.

An optional hydraulic depth adjustment (2) is available:

• Allows on-the-go hydraulic adjustments to be made from the tractor seat
• Gangs adjust up or down within a 140-mm (5.5-in.) range

Three-bar frames offer strength

The three-bar frame:

• Is constructed of three ranks of standards

• Has strength to match higher horsepower tractors
• Handles heavier residue levels

Three-bar frame models have these strength features:

• One-piece welded construction
• Solid steel in rear mainframe member
• 102-mm x 102-mm (4-in. x 4-in.) cross members
• 51-mm x 102-mm (2-in. x 4-in.) side members
• 76-mm x 127-mm (3-in. x 5-in.) diagonal frame supports

Long, narrow hitch for good maneuverability in tight headlands

The long narrow hitch design:

• Allows good maneuverability in tight headlands
• Is constructed of 51-mm x 127-mm (2-in. x 5-in.) steel tubing for strength
• Heavy cast-steel hitch link for yoke-type drawbars is standard equipment
• Hitch clevis is available for use with straight drawbars (not recommended for tractors over 150 engine hp)

A Level-lift™ linkage with easy turnbuckle leveling enables the mulch tiller to remain level whether in transport or in the field position.

A hitch jack is included with all models for storage and easier hookup to the tractor.

Coulter gangs

Coulter blades are for use where little incorporation is desired or for erosion-prone areas where it is important to disturb as little residue as possible. Blades are on 229-mm (9-in.) spacing to reduce the chance of plugging.

• Two-position blade down-pressure adjustment ensures consistent blade down pressure in light- or heavy-residue conditions.
• Coulter gangs have rigid scraper bars.
• Dura-Flex™ bearings and welded steel spools provide reliable performance and durability.
• Gangs are spring-cushioned with 140 mm (5.5 in.) of vertical travel to provide protection against rocks or other obstructions.

Remaining residue cover

Typical percents of residue cover remaining are listed in the table. The percentages do not take into account variables such as the condition of the residue, speed and soil type.

*Non-fragile residue includes crops like corn, sorghum, wheat (more than 45 bu).
**Fragile residue includes crops like soybeans, edible beans, peas, wheat (under 45 bu), sunflower, peanuts, cotton.
