Agco Introduces 3
White Tractors
KANSAS CITY, MO —An
extended line of White Workhorse
tractors was unveiled by Agco
Corporation at a special product
introduction held here for its deal
ers.
Functionally designed for rugged
performance and dependability while
emphasizing greater customer
choice, White’s three newest
entries in the high-horsepower
tractor market collectively offer
increased power, more transmis
sion choices, and superior operator
control.
Expanding White’s 6100 Series tractor line,
introduced in 1993, the new 6124 and 6144 Work
horse models boast a powerful Cummins “B”
Series six-cylinder, 359-C.I.D. (5.9 liter), liquid
cooled, diesel engine. For optimum torque output
and fuel performance, the 6124’s powerplant, rated
at 124 PTO horsepower, is turbocharged while the
6144, rated at 142 PTO horsepower, is both tur
bocharged and aftercooled.
Combining the economy and value of a syn
chronized transmission with the convenience of the
6100’s full powershift transmission, the innovative
Quadrashift transmission offers 32 forward and 32
reverse gears through the combination of an eight
speed synchronized gearbox and a synchronized
forward/reverse shuttle with four-speed power
shift. Each of the eight gear choices provides its
own four-speed powershift range for better flexi
bility and more usable power.
A technological highlight of the new 6124 and
6144 tractors is an electronic 3-point hitch. Agco
engineers have eliminated the wear parts and link
age adjustment associated with mechanical sensing
devices by introducing a 3-point hitch that elec
tronically provides accurate draft and position con
trols. With a twist of a knob on the 3-point control
panel, the operator can easily adjust the depth,
maximum height, draft sensitivity, and lowering
speed for increased production and less down-time.
Another unique feature on the new 6124 and
6144 models is an advanced electronic control sys
tem (ECS) that automatically monitors and con
trols five major tractor systems, including the dif
ferential lock, Power Front Axle, PTO, low pres
sure hydraulics, and transmission.
The differential lock is just one focus of the
ECS. Applying the brakes or raising the 3-point
hitch automatically disengages the tractor’s rear
differential lock. Lowering the 3-point hitch auto
matically re-engages the differential lock, reducing
wheel slippage. In addition, the system automati
cally disengages the rear differential lock when
travel speed exceeds nine mph.
Perfect for larger row crop and tillage opera
tions, the new 6215 White Workhorse was Agco’s
most powerful high-horsepower tractor introduced.
This new tractor depends on a heavy duty, liquid
cooled, 215 PTO horsepower “C” Series Cummins
six-cylinder, 504.5 C.I.D. (8.3 liter) diesel with
wastegate turbocharging and aftercooling to power
it through the toughest jobs. In addition, cylinders
heads with low-swirl intake and exhaust design and
a high-pressure fuel injection system with five-hde
injectors ensure greater fuel efficiency.
The 6215 brings all of this power to the ground
with an 18-speed full powershift transmission. As
used in the White 6100 Series models, it incorpo
rates electronic powershift transmission control
and single-lever shifting, which let the operator
match ground speed to virtually any power load or
operating condition.

several previous failed attempts. We
