KEY FEATURES
- Includes an EPA Final Tier 4/EU Stage IV-certified 4.5L John Deere PowerTech™ Plus engine.
- Standard John Deere PowerShift™ transmission and AutoShift option provide smooth shifting and reliable performance under all operating conditions, with max speeds of up to 40 km/h (25 mph).
- Mechanical Front-Wheel Drive (MFWD) limited-slip front axle provides true four-wheel drive, enabling maximum productivity on the most challenging jobsites.
- Newly designed controls for lights, windshield wipers, and turn signals are all conveniently located on the steering column for easy access when driving and loading. A horn button is also now on the pilot controls for easy access when trenching.
- Redesigned pilot towers provide more legroom when transitioning between loader and backhoe modes.
ENGINE
- Rugged FT4/Stage IV PowerTech™ Plus diesel engines* meet rigid emission regulations, enabling you to work, wherever there’s work — even in nonattainment areas. Our field-proven technology is simple, fluid efficient, fully integrated, and fully supported. It employs cooled exhaust gas recirculation and selective catalytic reduction system.
- Save fuel with standard economy mode can be configured separately between loader and backhoe functions. For example, activate economy mode for backhoe functions while retaining full power for loader functions — a Deere exclusive. This helps maximize fuel usage in lighter-work applications with minimal effect on machine performance.
- Variable-speed electronically controlled fan automatically speeds up or slows down, operating only as needed to keep things cool. Helps conserve power and fuel, while reducing noise.
PRODUCTIVITY
- True four-wheel drive on command. Optional limited-slip mechanical-front-wheel drive delivers superior traction in any ground condition. Engage momentary mechanical-front-wheel drive “on the fly” with the touch of a button on the new loader control.
- PowerShift™ transmission provides on-the-go clutchless gear changes, for the operator.
- With ride control activated, front loader hydraulic cylinders act as a shock absorber, smoothing travel over rough terrain, helping full loads reach their destination, and reducing operator fatigue.
- LED lighting kit includes choice of LED spot- or floodlights. For enhanced visibility when you need to extend your workday.
CAB COMFORT
- Redesigned pilot towers provide more legroom and additional space for transitioning between loader and backhoe operation.
- L-Series Backhoes are loaded with creature comforts, including efficient HVAC system, adjustable mechanical or air-suspension seat, and optional premium radio with Bluetooth®, auxiliary input, and XM Satellite Radio™ capability.
- Clear sightlines to the loader bucket corners have been maintained over the sloped hood, even with the addition of the aftertreatment components needed to meet FT4 compliance.
TAKE CONTROL
- New “palm-on-top” loader-control grip is even more comfortable and easy to use. Control of clutch disconnect, transmission quick-shift, auxiliary proportional roller, and momentary front-wheel-drive is at your fingertips.
- Fingertip electrohydraulic (EH) control of redesigned pilot levers provides even easier operation of backhoe functions, including the horn and selective flow.
- Exterior lights, wipers, and turn signals are now more conveniently located on the multifunction lever on the steering column — just like the family SUV — helping operators keep their eyes on the job at hand.
UPTIME
- State-of-the-art multi-language monitor clearly displays machine diagnostics. Operators can program a multitude of time-specific functions such as auto shutdown and auto-idle quickly and easily.
- The most advanced onboard-diagnostics technology in the industry is standard on all L-Series Backhoes. The exclusive John Deere WorkSight™ suite of telematic solutions includes JDLink™ Ultimate with real-time machine monitoring and remote diagnostics to help increase uptime while lowering operating costs.
- Our rugged multipurpose bucket has been reinforced with thicker plates and stronger cylinder mountings for longer life.
- Choose from a variety of factory-installed tire options, for the traction, exceptional performance, and long service life your specific application requires.
- Enabled through the monitor, differential-lock protection prevents engagement at high travel speeds and the resulting wear and tear on axle components.
- Standard maintenance-free batteries reduce periodic servicing, improve cold-starting reliability, and lengthen battery life.
- L-Series Backhoes come factory-filled with Hydrau™ premium all-season, anti-wear hydraulic oil specifically designed for construction equipment. Or for cold weather, opt for Hydrau™ XR, which offers all-season protection from –40 to 40 degree celsius.
- Machine-security system with touchpad passcode helps prevent unauthorized operation.
MAINTENANCE
- Same-side ground-level service points help speed daily checks and fills. Other commonsense features such as quick-change filters, extended service intervals, simple-to-read sight gauges, and easy-access grease zerks help increase uptime and lower daily operating costs.
- Vertical spin-on engine, transmission, and hydraulic filters and quick-release fuel filters allow fast, clean changes. Standard heavy-duty transmission oil filter increases reliability.
- Hinged, stacked-assembly coolers tilt away from the radiator for convenient core cleanout.
