  • Fuel-Savings with Auto-Idle And Economy Work Mode
    Power modes (30, 35, 50, and 60) Power modes (30, 35, 50, and 60)
    Overview

    Low daily operating costs with improved fuel economy and economy/power modes. These machines have improved fuel economy over the previous series.

    Benefits
    • Auto-idle automatically reduces engine speed when hydraulics aren’t in use.
    • Auto shutdown further conserves precious fuel.
    • Power/economy modes optimize power for digging applications and significantly improve fuel efficiency.
  • Change attachments quickly with mechanical coupler
    Overview
    Quick Coupler System Quick Coupler System

    Think of changing attachments as a system. With the quick connect auxiliary couplers and the manual quick coupler for attachments, changeover to the next attachment is quick with minimal downtime.  When using hydraulic attachments, the auxiliary selector valve lets you quickly choose between attachment one-way and two-way flows.

    Benefits
    • The standard selector valve allows the connection of two attachments at the same time. Supply/return oil can be diverted from one to the other by changing the valve position.
    • John Deere augers can be equipped with numerous sizes of rock, heavy-duty, standard, and tree/shrub bits.
    • Hydraulic hammers are perfect for quarry or trench work and concrete removal. Use them to break rock, concrete flatwork, and walls; around rebar; or to a precut line.
    • The clamp, sometimes referred to as a thumb, can be used in conjunction with buckets. This aids in the removal of material if it is bulky and does not fit into the bucket completely.

    • Compact excavators use common buckets and attachments that customers who own other John Deere compact machines may already have in their fleets.
  • Increase efficiency with standard backfill blade
    Overview
    Backfill Blade Backfill Blade

    Make a sizable impact on your productivity and profitability with the backfill blade. The backfill blade can be used to level and backfill trenches. It is the same width as the undercarriage width. The blade can add versatility by using the blade and bucket to clamp and carry pipe, rocks, or other bulky items. A bolt-on cutting edge is available as optional equipment for the backfill blade.

    Benefits
    • Backfill blade adds versatility, enabling these compact excavators to grade and fill.
    • Provides extra stability with attachments or when working on uneven terrain.

    Automatic shifting Automatic shifting
    • An auto speed change system for high speed travel is employed.
    • The turtle speed lock switch will keep the machine in low when propelling.
    • The rabbit speed lock will always keep the unit in the higher mode unless a large load is applied to travel like steering changes.
    • The machine will then automatically shift to low but return to high when the load is reduced.
  • Easy-To-Maintain Undercarriage
    Compact excavator undercarriage Compact excavator undercarriage
    Overview

    The X-frame undercarriage is similar to that of larger excavators, and it is designed to shed dirt and debris from the track frames. A track adjuster is located in each track frame and can be adjusted using a standard high pressure grease gun.

    Benefits
    • Track sag adjustment is conveniently located in the center of the frame to maintain proper track tension and maximize undercarriage life.

  • Ground Level Daily Service with Extended Maintenance Intervals
    Example of hinged door for easy access serviceability Example of hinged door for easy access serviceability
    Overview

    Extended maintenance intervals enable the machine to remain working for longer periods of productive work before the need to service. This greatly increases uptime and productivity of the unit. Hinged door provides wide-open access to the side-by-side oil cooler and radiator. Cooler design resists trash buildup and allows easier core cleanout. Access is quick and convenient.

    Benefits
    • Extended oil change and greasing intervals contribute to low daily operating costs.
    • Oil impregnated bushings allow the unit to extend grease intervals. Not only does it increase the time between greasing of the unit, this greatly reduces the chances of a problem occurring due to improper maintenance causing downtime to the operation.
    • The additional service door allows the operator and technician better access to components during daily service checks and routine maintenance for improved uptime.
    • No aftertreatment devices needed reducing maintenance and expense.
    • Parts and service are available at over 1,400 John Deere dealers throughout North America.
    • Wet-disc swing brake provides long-term maintenance-free performance.
