KEY FEATURES

• Redesigned onboard weighing system is factory calibrated for increased accuracy and reliability.
• New operator station features best-in-class operator noise levels along with ergonomic controls for maximum operator comfort and productivity.
• All-new mirror mounting increases visibility, reduces vibration, and provides walk-through access to the engine compartment.
• Easy-to-activate cab tilt doubles as a remote park-brake release.
• Ground-level diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) tank access makes fills quick and easy. Fuel tank is also close at hand to simplify daily service.
• Industry-leading transmission retarding and braking performance keep the machine stable and in control down steep grades.

ENGINE

• Rugged EPA FT4/EU Stage IV PowerTech 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 (EGR), easy-to-maintain high-uptime exhaust filters, and selective catalytic reduction (SCR).
• Engine, hydraulic, transmission, and service-brake coolers employ a hydraulic-drive fan that runs only as fast or as often as necessary, helping conserve power and fuel. Reversible option back-blows cooler cores, minimizing manual cleanout.
• Engine, hydraulic, transmission, and service-brake coolers employ a hydraulic-drive fan that runs only as fast or as often as necessary, helping conserve power and fuel. Reversible option back-blows cooler cores, minimizing manual clean-out.

PRODUCTIVITY

• Optional onboard weighing system has been factory calibrated to two-percent accuracy when payload exceeds 50 percent. The system displays the payload on the monitor during loading, while transmitting real-time load and tonnage data via JDLink™, so you can monitor productivity from virtually anywhere.
• Inclinometer shows the slope of the truck on the monitor, so the incline can be properly matched to the gear listed on the conveniently located chart. 
• When the operator’s foot comes off both the accelerator and the brake, the system uses the transmission retarder to maintain travel speed automatically — reducing service-brake wear and operator fatigue.
• Purpose-built transmission provides eight forward and four reverse gears to speed cycles and expand the working range across all jobsite conditions.
• Traction-boosting auto-diff lock engages and disengages as necessary, simplifying operation. Or it can be engaged on-the-fly while slipping.
• Among the many tire options, a wide-profile design provides superior flotation in soft ground conditions.
• Front and rear worklights help extend the workday when necessary. Optional LED lights are mounted high to expand illumination.

CAB COMFORT

• The E-Series’ quieter Deere-designed cab is sealed and pressurized to keep out dust and noise.
• The larger entryway allows easier entrance and exit. And the fully adjustable air-ride seat makes smooth sailing out of any terrain.
• Creature comforts include keyless start, low-effort push-button controls, air-suspension heated high-back seat, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, and optional premium radio with Bluetooth®, auxiliary input, and Satellite Radio™ capability.
• Offset heads-up monitor display mounted near operator hand controls reduces eye and neck fatigue
• Ergonomic operator control layout featuring dual SSM button pads with 25-percent less buttons. The right side pad is “functional” while the left side is “set and forget.”
• Exclusive adaptive-suspension system adjusts to the jobsite, smoothing out the ride and helping keep the cab more stable. Unlike the expensive options available on other trucks, ours is standard equipment.

SAFETY

• A Deere exclusive, daily service can be performed from ground level without needing to mount the machine and tie off, as required by Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA).
• Remote park-brake release allows the park brake to be safely disengaged without climbing under the machine, should towing be necessary.
• When enabled, the operator can set limits for the rear-chassis level when unloading. If the limit is exceeded, the dump body will not raise and a message will appear on the monitor instructing the operator to reposition the truck.
• When activated, auto horn will automatically sound when the truck is started, moves forward or in reverse, or changes direction, to help comply with MSHA regulations.
• Safety bar locks the dump body to the mainframe and disengages the hydraulics when the dump body is in a fully upright position, for safer service.
• To ease entry and exit, stairway lights can be turned on by pushing a button from ground level.
• Push the button again to turn off the lights, or they will turn off automatically after a predetermined length of time. And unlike many competitor trucks, stairs are evenly spaced, reducing the risk of stumbling and falling.

UPTIME

• Designed specifically for the E-Series, inboard wet-disc brakes run cool, clean, and unexposed. Combined with the strongest transmission retarder in the industry, they help ensure consistent stops and maximum brake life.
• Heavy-duty, purpose-built John Deere axles are lubricated, filtered, and cooled for longer life. Spring-applied, hydraulic-released park brake is extremely reliable.
• High-alloy-steel dump body and chassis deliver superior strength and rigidity without adding weight.
• Integrated tire-pressure/temperature-monitoring system comes standard to help maximize tire life and fuel efficiency. If pressure drops by 10 percent, a passive alarm appears on the monitor. Further decreases or overheating result in an audible warning, and an email alert is sent to you via JDLink.
• Long-term durability demands big-time strength in the critical articulation/oscillation joint. Widely spaced over-sized pins and roller bearings, stay-tight oscillation bearing, and the largest throat/tube diameter on any ADT all shout best-in-class.

MAINTENANCE

• New mirror-bow design won’t impede access to the engine bay, enabling easier service.
  All daily checks and periodic service are done from ground level, including refilling both fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). Fluid-sample ports, jump-start terminals, and electrical disconnect switch are also front and center.
• Greaseless pins and bushings are used throughout except in the articulation joint and oscillation area. By customer request, those items employ lube banks that bring difficult-to-reach zerks within easy access. And a convenient lube and maintenance chart helps ensure that nothing gets overlooked.
• Ash-service intervals for the diesel particulate filter (DPF) are condition based, meaning the machine will notify the operator before service is required. Typically, ash service is not necessary until the first engine overhaul. Machine application, regular maintenance practices, and type of lubricating oil impact ash-service intervals.
• Available quick-service fluid-evacuation points, standard easy-access vertical filters, and environmental drains help speed periodic maintenance and increase uptime.
• Jumper posts are easily accessible from ground level should a booster pack need to be hooked up to a dead battery.
• Hinged swing-out fans and coolers open wide to reveal the cooler cores, making cleanout quick and easy.
• Service points and sample ports are color-coded to help speed preventive maintenance and troubleshooting. Additional diagnostics including temperatures and pressures are accessible through the monitor.
