Who wouldn't be more productive working from the fully adjustable suspension seat of a John Deere 953M Tracked Feller Buncher? The comfortable, well-appointed cab offers plenty of space to get things done. Quiet and smooth running, too, with isolation mountings to reduce noise and vibration. Floor-to-ceiling front and side windows and overhead skylight greatly expand visibility. And a high-power HVAC system ensures year-round comfort. It has everything your operator needs to conduct business "on the go" - and be more productive longer.

Features
KEY FEATURES
- The 900M-Series maintain the improvements introduced on the 900K-Series machines, including a 30-percent increase in cutting swath, from 3 to 4 m (10 to 13 ft.) on the standard boom. For more cuts with less machine movement.
- A variety of boom sets and harvester heads can be combined to suit a wide variety of applications.
- Longer, wider undercarriage maximizes stability no matter the terrain.
- Optional Rapid Cycle System (RCS) uses a single, easy-to-operate joystick to quickly and simply control all boom functions.
PRODUCTIVITY
- Rapid Cycle System (RCS) can be tailored to individual skill levels and specific harvesting conditions, from large single-tree harvesting to high-speed, multistem cutting.
- Press a single button to engage RCS mode. Conditions don't suit the fast, parallel motion of the boom? Turn RCS off with another touch of a button.
- Multiple RCS settings can be saved according to individual operator preferences. Novices may prefer a slower, more methodical pace, while highly skilled pros may want faster response.
CAB COMFORT
- Fully adjustable armrests provide fingertip control of all machine functions. Optional fully adjustable suspension seat provides exceptional daylong comfort in the climate-controlled cab.
- Sealed touchpad keeps out dust, moisture, and debris, minimizing wear. Proven marine-grade control center eliminates rocker switches, numerous wires, and unsealed connections, and lasts up to 10 times longer than standard dash switches.
- Floor-to-ceiling front and side windows plus an overhead skylight expand the view of the cutting area by 22 percent.
UPTIME
- Thick plates and larger pins and bushings bolster reliability and help ensure long life.
- From adjustable thrust bearings that keep the tilt mechanism tight to an in-tank hydraulic filtration with spin-on filters for fewer filter changes and superior dirt capture, this machine is as reliable as it is rugged.
- Optional undercarriage-mounted toolbox provides convenient storage for tools, additional saw bars, and other spare parts, minimizing trips back to the service truck.
MAINTENANCE
- Easy access to service components helps ensure daily checks and preventative maintenance get done on schedule, minimizing costly repairs down the road.
- Reversing fan automatically reverses airflow to clean debris from the cooler cores. Fan runs at preset intervals, or if conditions demand more frequent cleaning, simply press a button to actuate the reversing cycle.
- 900M- and 900MH-Series machines share many common components - including the engine, undercarriage, booms, and cab - with their 800M- and 800MH-Series counterparts, simplifying maintenance and repairs when needed.
