Bigger. Faster. Stronger. With a full line of models, there's a John Deere excavator for your kind of work. Regardless of the jobsite, our excavators get the job done with muscle, control, and peerless productivity. Efficient, cool-running engines and enhanced hydraulics make these the most-reliable and hardest-working Deere excavators yet.
The possibilities are almost endless. The 60G's compact size and reduced-tail-swing design enable this small-but-mighty machine to specialize in close-quarters work. But that's not the only reason to run one. Its highly fuel-efficient, direct-injected diesel meets rigid Final Tier 4 emissions standards and is noticeably quiet so you can put it to work almost anywhere, any time. Standard-equipped with backfill blade, mechanical quick-coupler, and auxiliary hydraulics, plus any of the many optional Worksite Pro™ attachments, it can make a sizeable impact on your productivity. And profitability.
Standard coupler accommodates a wide variety of available attachments such as rakes, breakers, and augers.
Extended service intervals help maximize uptime and minimize operating cost.
PRODUCTIVITY
Zero tail swing, independent-swing boom and 360-degree rotation allow maximum flexibility and exceptional maneuverability for work in tight spaces.
The 50D can be equipped with an optional, hydraulic, adjustable-angle backfill blade that features 25 degrees of adjustment to both the left and right for more efficient trench backfilling. Blade angle changes easily with buttons on top of the blade-control lever.
Standard quick-coupler and boom-mounted auxiliary hydraulics accommodate a wide variety of buckets and Worksite Pro™ attachments such as rakes, breakers, and augers.
Standard rubber tracks traverse virtually any terrain and are especially useful on paved surfaces.
Exceptional drawbar pull delivers plenty of power for backfilling trenches or transporting material around jobsites.
COMFORT
Ergonomic low-effort pilot controls direct an open-center variable-displacement hydraulic system for exceptionally smooth, combined-function performance.
Spacious operator station, wide control spacing, foldable pedals, and adjustable seat provide daylong comfort. Optional air-conditioned cab includes a large expanse of tinted glass, bi-fold door, and wide entryway.
Easy-to-read systems monitor is positioned within the forward line of sight to provide vital operating information at a glance.
Go from backhoe- to excavator-style controls with just a twist of the control-pattern selector valve conveniently located beneath the seat.
UPTIME/SERVICE
Fuel-sipping diesel and auto-idle help preserve precious fuel. Extended service intervals let you work longer between scheduled maintenance.
Open just two doors to perform all maintenance checks and service. Hydraulic fluid sight gauge and see-through coolant reservoir let you check levels at a glance.
Tungsten-carbide-coated surfaces and oil-impregnated boom, arm, and bucket bushings deliver unsurpassed long-term durability.
Steel cores within the rubber tracks resist cracking. Large drive sprockets and idlers provide additional undercarriage durability.
