Productivity

Unlike dedicated self-propelled units, you won't need an expensive push dozer to help load. Without the additional operators and support equipment, you'll save 30-50 cents per cubic yard compared to other methods.

Delivering up to 530 hp plus a 10-percent power bulge, Tier 3-certified 13.5-L Deere PowerTech Plus™ high-torque diesels provide plenty of material-moving muscle.

Choose from cut widths up to 14.5 feet and bulk-hauling capacities to 21.5 heaped cubic yards.

Available AutoLoad™ system automates the scraper's hydraulic lift functions for maximum productivity pass after pass.  The operator can also set transport and fill heights for faster cycles.

Unhitch the scrapers and these tractors can do double duty - pulling disks and rippers, and handling other site-prep tasks.

Comfort

Quiet, spacious, climate-controlled CommandView™ cab helps an operator be his best. With more 60 square feet of tinted glass, the panoramic view is unsurpassed. 

Eighteen-speed PowerShift™ transmission delivers smooth, uninterrupted shifting performance - and transport speeds up to 25 mph.

Exclusive ActiveSeat™ isolates the operator from 90 percent of vertical seat movement, for the smoothest ride on any scraper tractor.

Exclusive AutoLoad option reduces fatigue and helps unfamiliar operators become proficient more quickly.

Uptime/Service

With front and rear axle supports, massive frames, and heavy-duty oscillation joints, these construction-grade tractors are well-equipped to handle the daily rigors of pulling scrapers. In fact, they're so tough they're backed by a 2-year/2,000-hour warranty. 

Unique Vari-Cool™ system employs a large grille, multiple louvers, and variable-speed fan for generous airflow through the heavy-duty coolers. The patented fan operates at the slowest speed necessary, for maximum cooling, horsepower, and fuel efficiency.

John Deere construction grade scrapers move more material per cycle on nearly 1/3 less fuel than self-propelled scrapers.  Large 350-gallon fuel capacity lets you work longer between fill-ups.

All daily servicing can be accomplished without raising the hood. Conveniently located service and lubrication reference helps ensure that nothing gets overlooked.
