The Ford 6000 Series tractors, including the Ford 6000 and later Commander 6000, were introduced in the early 1960s as Ford’s first 6-cylinder row-crop tractors. Designed for power and versatility, these tractors came equipped with a 4.0L 6-cylinder diesel or 3.7L gasoline engine, producing approximately 66 hp at the PTO and nearly 60 hp at the drawbar. With a 10-speed full powershift transmission, independent PTO, and closed-center hydraulic system, the Ford 6000 set a new standard for operator convenience and field efficiency during its production years.

Key performance features include a Type II three-point hitch, tested PTO output of 66.9 hp, drawbar power of 59.3 hp, and a robust “Power-Stor” hydraulic system operating at around 1,900 psi. Rear lift capacity and hydraulic flow were sufficient to handle heavy implements, while a 26-gallon fuel tank enabled long working days. With an operating weight of 6,500–7,400 lbs and a wheelbase of about 95 inches, the tractor balanced stability with maneuverability. Tires were typically 6.00×16 at the front and 13.6×38 at the rear, providing solid traction for row-crop operations.

The Ford 6000 Series Tractor Repair Manual provides comprehensive service coverage for this model. Sections include power plant, transmission, PTO, rear axle and brakes, steering system, front axle and wheels, tires, and hydraulic system. The manual contains detailed disassembly and reassembly procedures, exploded diagrams, lubrication and maintenance charts, torque specifications, wiring and hydraulic schematics, and troubleshooting guides. It is an essential resource for owners, restorers, and technicians maintaining or repairing these tractors to original factory standards.
