Dynamic PowerShift™ transmission employs smart shift technology to continuously evaluate speed and load conditions, adjusting the coupling of the clutch packages whenever necessary. Featuring a torque converter that makes intelligent gear changes over five speed ranges, the system delivers impressive machine-response time, material-disintegration force, and long-term durability.
From accessible service points to state-of-the-art diagnostics, the John Deere PowerTech™ engine lets your maintenance team work smarter, not harder. Reliable and jobsite-proven engine/hydraulic match maintains boom and bucket power into and out of the pile, for full loads, even in wet or packed materials.
In today’s job market, enhancing the operator experience is more important than ever before. Spacious and quiet cab features a new ergonomic seat with high back, armrests, and headrest designed for all-day comfort. Dual-tilt steering column eases movement and increases flexibility. Automotive-style louvers enable all-around interior airflow.
Quad-Cool cooling system design places the radiator, air-conditioner condenser, intercooler, and hydraulic, transmission, and standard axle coolers in a unique boxed configuration that’s isolated from engine heat, to boost air circulation, heat-exchange efficiency, and overall durability.
Energy-efficient LED worklight package provides better illumination while consuming less power than traditional halogen lights. Also requiring less frequent replacement and maintenance, LEDs expand visibility in low-light environments to put the focus on operator productivity and jobsite safety.
Designed to increase productivity and operational performance, new high-performance buckets feature an added structure at the top of the bucket to protect machine cylinders during loading and maximize material retention.
Optional payload-scale system measures the weights of different materials being loaded and moved for clear operator visibility, optimizing capacity and accuracy. Eliminating guesswork to reduce loading times to get more done in less time, the factory-installed system helps boost overall efficiency and productivity. Easy-to-navigate panel lets the operator perform scale calibration, onboard diagnostics, and step-by-step troubleshooting when needed. Load-weight data can also be recorded and monitored through the John Deere Operations Center™.
