![]() Options are available for slope control and to upgrade to the fully integrated 3D SmartGrade. Roberts said the 850 X-Tier dozer has electrohydraulic controls and includes EZGrade, John Deere’s basic grade management tool. Kat Roberts, John Deere dozer and crawler loaders product manager believes the biggest benefit of the company's newest concept vehicle, the 850 X-Tier E-Drive dozer is performance. “Because of our electric drive components, we can provide our customers with an even stronger TCO story than we ever have before." "When you think about this size of this machine and bigger, customers are talking about rebuilds and overall total cost of ownership as being important factors into their buying decision,” Roberts said. “Performance,” Roberts said, summing it up in one word.Īlso, the electric components offer a further benefit in terms of the total cost of ownership. To her, though, the ultimate benefit goes directly to the customers and operators. ![]() Like the hydrostatic transmission, the E-Drive allows for on-the-go steering, infinite speed control, and power management. "It gives us the ability to mimic the benefits that we have from the hydrostatic transmission,” Robert said. The less complex drivetrain powers each track independently to optimize efficiency without sacrificing maneuverability and control. "Something unique for us in this size class machine is the dual-path electric motors, meaning there are two electric-drive motors," she said. Roberts said the 850 X-Tier is powered by a 9-liter diesel engine providing 225 horsepower, like its predecessor the 850L. In addition, blade configurations will include Power, Angle Tilt blade, outside dozer, and mechanical angle blade. 550K: 85 hp PowerTech 4.5L base weight 19,290–20,272 lbs.According to John Deere, the 850 X-Tier E-Drive dozer is set to be available with options including brush protection, winch, three- or five-shank rippers, retrieval hitch, rigid drawbar and waste-handler configuration.K-Series dozers constantly monitor their own transmission temperature, and the monitor has a special warning light to alert operators when the transmission is too cold or too hot for normal operation. ![]() The display in the cab provides real time values for every temperature, pressure, and speed sensor on the machine. The 700K and 750K come equipped with John Deere’s exclusive V-Cool package, which isolates coolers from dust and engine heat to increase cooling efficiency and durability. ![]() The diesel particulate filters (DPF) are cleaned automatically during routine operation. A hydraulically driven cool-on-demand fan operates only as needed, decreases noise levels, and cuts fuel consumption.Ī fan-reversing feature to blow debris from the coolers is standard for the 750K and optional for the 550K, 650K, and 700K. The K-Series uses cooled exhaust-gas recirculation (EGR) with exhaust filters to meet 2012 EPA emissions regulations. With increases in overall weight for all, the new hydrostatic-drive tractors promise improved productivity. John Deere has upgraded its 550K, 650K, 700K and 750K crawler dozers to the new K Series with new, more powerful PowerTech engines across the line that satisfy EPA Tier 4 Interim emissions requirements. ![]()
