Take Control. Protect Your Operation.
Introducing the AgTronics Dura-Cool HD™ Fan Drive – For Farmers Who Refuse to Be Shut Down.
You’re the protector of your land, your equipment, your family legacy.
You’re also in charge of uptime, cost control, and getting it done no matter the heat, dust, or pressure.
But there’s one hidden failure point threatening both roles:
Your factory Vari-Cool™ Fan Drive.
If you’ve owned a John Deere 8000R, 9000R, or 8030 Series tractor with a 9.0L or 13.5L engine, you already know:
-
When it fails, it fails hard. -
The dealer repair bill hits fast – and deep. -
It never fails when you’re parked—it fails when you need it most
This is where Dura-Cool HD™ takes over.
Problem: A Fan Drive That Doesn’t Know When to Quit
The John Deere Vari-Cool™ was engineered for precision—but not for long-term durability in dust-choked heat, long-haul tillage, or no-miss harvest windows. It relies on a complicated cocktail of:
-
Electronic solenoids -
Fragile hydraulic pistons -
Multi-point control logic -
A proprietary ECU handshake that doesn’t always hold up under pressure
The result? Sudden shutdowns. Fan surging. Fault codes. Downtime.
And the worst part? It costs $3,000–$5,000+ just to make it work again.
Solution: Dura-Cool HD™ Fan Drive
Eliminate the problem at the root. Replace the entire system with a rock-solid mechanical upgrade.
The AgTronics Dura-Cool HD™ Fan Drive is a heavy-duty, fixed-ratio mechanical constant speed conversion that replaces the entire Vari-Cool™ system with precision-machined simplicity. No hydraulics. No electronics. No excuses.
Built for the field. Backed by the field.
