Standard tire pressure/temperature-monitoring system helps maximum tire life and fuel efficiency. A passive alarm appears on monitor if pressure drops by 10 percent.

• Filters, diagnostic ports, and hydraulic oil reservoir are easy to access. An industry-leading feature, Deere machines can be checked and serviced daily from the ground, eliminating the need for tie-offs — a big advantage on Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA)-regulated sites.

• Optional factory-installed auto-lube system with ground-level refill is electrically powered and integrated with machine diagnostics to help verify daily maintenance is being performed.

• Fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) refills are also easily accessible at ground level.

Three drive modes enable easy customization by both inexperienced and veteran operators for a variety of conditions:

• Normal mode for everyday operation.

• Eco mode that, when conditions allow, conserves fuel by managing engine power delivery as well as optimizing transmission response for those conditions.

• Traction mode, which optimizes differential lock for maximum tractive effort in soft and slippery ground conditions.

• John Deere PowerTech™ employs external cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), easily maintained exhaust and in-line diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) filters, and variable-geometry turbocharger (VGT).

• Conserve power and fuel with engine, hydraulic, transmission, and service-brake coolers that run only when necessary. Reversible hydraulic-drive fan option back-blows cooler cores, minimizing the need for manual cleaning.

• The system notifies operators of condition-based ash-service intervals for the diesel particulate filter (DPF) before service is required.

• Quiet, pressurized cab features a new easy-to-read monitor and rear-camera display, along with options such as automatic temperature control (ATC) system that allows operators to simply select a desired temperature to get and stay comfortable.

• Stairway lights can be turned on and off by pushing a button from ground level. They’ll also turn off automatically after a predetermined length of time.

• Standard high-back air-suspension seat adjusts multiple ways for all-day support. Opt for the premium heated/ventilated seat with heavy-duty air-suspension and adjustable seat pan for additional comfort.
