Your next big thing.
Whether you're moving up from a backhoe to an excavator as you build your business, or adding an agile niche machine to your fleet that's just the right size - our 130G will meet your expanding needs. Its relatively small stature makes it highly nimble on-site, and easy to transport between jobsites. With more arm force than its predecessor, plus added power boost, it's also noticeably muscular. Inside the spacious cab, an easy-to-navigate enhanced LCD monitor lets you dial-in a wealth of machine functionality and information.

KEY FEATURES
- Interim Tier 4-emission certified engine.
- Powerwise™ III management system.
- Optional backfill blade.
- Power Boost.
ENGINE
- The EPA IT4/EU Stage IIIB technology in our excavators is simple, fuel efficient, fully integrated, and fully supported.
- It employs field-proven cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) for reducing NOX, and a diesel particulate filter and diesel oxidation catalyst to reduce particulate matter.
- Highly efficient, heavy-duty cooling system keeps things cool, even in tough environments or high altitudes. The cooling system consists of five coolers located in the left service compartment. They are the hydraulic, fuel, engine coolant, charge air and air conditioning.
- Auto-idle automatically reduces engine speed when hydraulics isn't in use. Auto-shutdown further preserves precious fuel.
- Wet-sleeve cylinder liners, mono-steel pistons, and large-diameter connecting rods ensure long-term engine durability.
HYDRAULICS
- Powerwise™ III perfectly balances engine performance and hydraulic flow for predictable operation. Three productivity modes allow you to choose the digging style that fits the job. High productivity delivers more power and faster hydraulic response to move more material. Power delivers smooth and balanced metering for normal operation. Economy reduces top speed and helps save fuel.
- Want to add a breaker or other attachment? Factory-installed high-pressure, high-flow auxiliary hydraulic packages meet the need.
- Simply press the button on the right-hand joystick and muscle through. Power boost also kicks in automatically in boom up/lifting functions.
CAB COMFORT
- We've got your back with a sculpted mechanical-suspension high-back seat. Seat has 318 mm (12 in.) of travel, sliding together or independent of the joystick console. So it won't cramp an operator's style. For even more support and comfort, opt for the air-suspension heated seat.
- Wide expanse of front and side glass, narrow front cab posts, large overhead glass, and numerous mirrors provide virtually unobstructed all-around visibility. If you need to see more, choose the optional camera that displays the action behind on the monitor.
- Automatic, high-velocity bi-level climate-control system with automotive-style adjustable louvers helps keep the glass clear and the cab comfortable.
- Self-cleaning steps, wide entryways, and convenient grab bars help ease cab entry and exit.
EASE OF CONTROL
- For tasks that require extra finesse, short-throw low-effort joysticks, fine metering, and smooth multifunction operation give the precision you need.
- Ergonomically correct short-throw pilot levers provide smooth, predictable fingertip control with less movement or effort.
- Select engine speed, auto-idle, power mode, lighting, and window wiper settings all on the right-hand console. Push buttons fingertip control of auxiliary hydraulic flow for operating attachments.
EASE OF SERVICE
- Large, easy-to-open service doors and easy-access service points make quick work of the daily and periodic maintenance.
- Easy-to-reach dipstick and nearby coolant reservoir make daily checks and/or additions quick and easy.
- Fluid-sample and remote diagnostic ports help speed preventative maintenance and troubleshooting.
- Fluid-level sight gauges are conveniently located and can be checked at a glance.
Filters
- Vertical spin-on fuel and engine oil filters are conveniently located in the right rear compartment for simplified ground-level servicing.
- Fresh-air cab filter is quickly serviced from outside the cab where it's more likely to get done.Perforations in the side shields act as a "first filter." Anything that passes through will also clear the cooler cores.
STRUCTURES AND UNDERCARRIAGE
- Optional blade is a highly useful addition for cleanup and backfilling, and provides additional lift capacity and stability when running breakers and other heavy-duty attachments.
- Reinforced D-channel side frames provide maximum cab and component protection.
- Thick-plate single-sheet mainframe, box-section track frames, and industry-exclusive double-seal swing bearing deliver rock-solid durability.
- With large idlers, rollers, and strutted links, the sealed and lubricated undercarriage delivers long and reliable performance.
- Standard boom/frame lights and cab/boom-mounted options provide illumination to extend your workday beyond normal daylight hours.
ARM AND BOOM
- A John Deere exclusive, three welded bulkheads within the boom resist torsional stress for unsurpassed durability. Booms, arms, and mainframes are so tough, they're warranted for three years or 10,000 hours.
- Reinforced resin thrust plates, grooved bushings, and thermal-coated bucket joints increase arm and boom lube intervals to 500 hours.
- Tungsten-carbide coating creates an extremely wear-resistant surface to protect the all-important bucket-to-arm joint. Oil-impregnated bushings enhance durability and extend grease intervals to 500 hours for the arm-and-boom joint and 100 hours for the bucket joint.
- TK-Series bucket teeth are engineered for maximum strength and impact absorption. Hammer-free installation and removal simplifies changes, minimizes downtime.
CPU/MONITOR
- With John Deere WorkSight™, JDLink™ monitoring provides real-time machine utilization and health data, plus location information. Fleet Care proactively suggests maintenance to correct problems early before they turn into costly downtime. And Service ADVISOR™ Remote enables your dealer to read diagnostic codes, record performance data, and even update software without a trip to the jobsite. It's the most comprehensive, easy-to-use suite of technology available for increasing uptime and productivity while lowering operating costs. And it's only available from John Deere.
- Multi-language LCD monitor and rotary dial provide intuitive access to a wealth of information and functions. Just turn and tap to select work mode, access operating info, adjust cab temperature, and tune the radio. Plus much more.
- Easy-to-read LCD monitor tracks scheduled maintenance intervals and issues reminders. Should a problem arise, it provides diagnostic information to help decrease downtime.
