Likely built in the 1980 model year at Mannhiem Germany for outside of the US market. Probably sold in Canada before the dollar value crashed. 70 gross HP on flywheel and four cylinders. Lucky you, one of the finest Deere tractors made between 1976 and 1982. Call 1-800-522-7448 with every number you can find stamped on that tractor for the correct operators,parts and service manuals. No problem with parts support.

What you have is a Manheim Germany built tractor
The European market had different numbering than
ones built for the US market until 1992 when the
6000 series was built. What you have is a early
1980's model. I think it is around 70-75 hp very
similar to a 2750. Your tractor came from Canada. It is considered a gray market tractor in the US by JD. But you should be able to get all the parts for it.

There are three versions of the 2040 listed on Deere's Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC). It would appear that you have a version that was built somewhere overseas. It is shown with a four-cylinder engine and was available with a factory cab. The serial number range runs up to 429,999 - so your tractor fits right in. The tractor is shown in conjunction with a 1640 and 1840, so it seems to be an entirely different machine than the one you have literature on. Take your serial number and any other pertinent info you have to your dealer, as they should be able to get you the proper manuals. Just make sure they order manuals for the right one, and have them type 2040 into EPC on model search to verify that they have it correct. Good luck with your 2040.

The 2040 has a 3 cylinder engine and 8 forward and 4 reverse speeds. The 2240 also has a 3 cylinder engine. 8 forward and 4 reverse speeds. Optional Hi-Lo. 2440 4 cylinder engine. 8 forward 4 reverse. Hi-Lo or reverser optional. Same for the 2640. None of them had John Deere cabs.

Was the 4 rev. speeds an option on the 2040. Ours is a 79 model with 3 cyl. diesel, 8 forward and 2 reverse ?

JD,
I think Dave M hit it on the head. It's a Mannheim Deere, and probably has some Lanz Bulldog blood flowing in its oil galleys. Even in my 1020/2020 service manual they talk about 4 cylinder Diesels in 2030's and maybe 1530's. So I'm fairly sure a 4 cylinder existed, but not in gas form - as they were only in the 3 cylinder.

Steve
