60D Excavator from John Deere

John Deere 60D Excavator
   
Make it big with our largest compact.

Whether you're ready to take on bigger projects or looking for the right size excavator to fit a job, step up to a 60D. Deere's largest compact excavator, the new 60D is just right for landscaping, underground/utility, or site development work. Like our other compacts, it excels in close quarters and is easy to trailer. But with its powerful dig forces, impressive digging depth, and spacious comfortable cab, this highly capable compact produces and feels more like a small mid-size excavator. And with a rugged interim Tier 4 engine and excellent serviceability, you'll get more done with low downtime and operating cost.

Productivity

Zero tail swing, independent-swing boom, 360-degree rotation allow maximum flexibility and exceptional maneuverability for work in tight spaces.

Standard quick coupler and boom mounted auxiliary hydraulics accommodate a wide variety of buckets and Worksite PRO attachments such as breakers and augers.

Standard rubber tracks traverse virtually any terrain and are especially useful on paved surfaces.

Exceptional drawbar pull delivers plenty of power for backfilling trenches or transporting material around jobsites.

Comfort

Ergonomic low-effort pilot controls direct an open-center variable displacement hydraulic system for exceptionally smooth, combined-function performance.

Spacious operator station, wide control spacing, foldable pedals, and adjustable seat provide day-long comfort. Optional air-conditioned cab includes a large expanse of tinted glass, bi-fold door and wide entryway.

Easy-to-read systems monitor is positioned within the forward line of sight to provide vital operating information at a glance.

Go from backhoe- to excavator-style controls with just a twist of the control-pattern selector valve that's conveniently located beneath the seat.

Uptime/Service

Fuel-sipping diesel and auto idle help preserve precious fuel. Extended service intervals let you work longer between scheduled maintenance.

Open just three doors to perform all maintenance checks and service. Hydraulic fluid sight gauge and see-through coolant reservoir let you check levels at a glance.

Tungsten-carbide coated surfaces and oil-impregnated boom, arm, and bucket bushings deliver unsurpassed long-term durability.

Steel cores within the rubber tracks resist cracking. Large drive sprockets and idlers provide additional undercarriage durability.
