For the grader goodGPS-based grade-control systems have revolutionized blade

control, and contractors have been way ahead of manufacturers

in adapting this technology — namely by patching these systems

into their machines’ electrical systems.

Those days are over. Every John Deere motor grader can now

be shipped from the factory pre-wired for these leading GPS

systems. This equipment option incorporates all structural attach-

ment points, electrical harnesses, connectors, and clean routing

for plug-and-play integrated blade control. Other machine manu-

facturers are lumbering toward similar systems, but as of this

writing, John Deere is exclusive in offering pre-wiring for both

Topcon and Trimble®.

This optional integrated blade control is the latest advancement

in our continuing effort to offer John Deere graders that lead the

industry in both performance and reliability. We’ve also updated

the six-wheel-drive system by adding a “precision mode” that

relies only on the front wheels to deliver ultimate smoothness and

very-low-speed grading capability. Expect Deere to continue to in-

vest in differentiating ourselves as the contractor’s blade of choice.

It’s great to see our engineers developing real solutions for

our customers, particularly in the John Deere motor grader

— one of the greatest success stories in our recent history. And

it’s fun to watch competitors scramble to play catch-up.

Combining the power, smoothness, ease of operation,

and comfort you’d expect from John Deere with the superb

maneuverability and mobility of a wheeled machine, the

190D W and 220D W Wheeled Excavators get it done. In

close quarters, they’re more maneuverable than truck-

mounted excavators. And because they travel on tires, you

won’t need to haul them from job to job.

You’ll appreciate the fuel-effi cient, Tier 3 emission-

certifi ed engines, plus the host of enhancements designed to

keep downtime and operating costs to a minimum. And your

operators will like the best-in-class cab featuring more

legroom, noticeably lower noise levels, and an easy-to-use

multifunction LCD monitor. Deere once again sets the stan-

dard for productivity, uptime, and low daily operating cost.

Easy street

Clearing ditches, repairing sewers, moving Jersey barriers —

the highly mobile John Deere wheeled excavators do it

all. They feature signifi cant increases in horsepower and

weight, which make them highly productive in a wide variety

of jobs. Faster travel and swing speeds improve cycle times.

Standard-assist (low fl ow/low pressure) auxiliary hydraulics

also provide compatibility with swinger/tilt attachment —

a real advantage when cleaning ditches or working on slopes.

A heavier 220D comes with longer, wider-stance axles for

more lift capacity and superb stability.

These wheeled excavators are more maneuverable, too.

With their short wheelbases, they can slip in extra close to dig

along a wall or lift a Jersey barrier without taking up an extra

lane of traffi c.

Both machines feature fi eld-proven, highly reliable 5.2L

engines that start easy, run quiet, and are easy on fuel. Cooled

exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), four-valve-per-cylinder

head, and high-pressure common-rail fuel system enable

these engines to meet Tier 3 emission standards without

sacrifi cing power or fuel effi ciency.

These engines deliver 159 net horsepower, which rep-

resents a 29-percent increase for the 190D W and a 7-per-

cent increase for the 220D W over prior models. Like their

tracked excavator counterparts, both machines employ the

Powerwise III™ engine/hydraulic management system, which

maximizes power output, saves fuel, and delivers smooth

multifunction operation.

And because maximum comfort means maximum pro-

ductivity, the cab has been redesigned to put your operator

on easy street. Its spacious, well-appointed interior boasts

more of everything: a wider expanse of tinted glass for virtu-

ally unrestricted visibility; substantially more legroom; more

peace and quiet.

P A G E 4 / 5


Wheeled excavators have their own set of wheels, so you don’t need a semi-truck and trailer to haul them around. Won’t tear up concrete or asphalt either.

More comfort, too, with a deluxe-suspension multi-position

seat that slides together or independent of the control console,

so it won’t cramp an operator’s style. The tilt steering wheel

is infi nitely adjustable for more comfortable operation, and

angles up and out of the way for easy entry and exit.

Ergonomic short-throw pilot levers help minimize fatigue,

providing smooth, predictable fi ngertip control with less effort.

The FNR switch is now more conveniently located on the right-

hand pilot lever. Pushbuttons on the right lever allow fi ngertip

control of auxiliary hydraulic fl ow for operating attachments.

D-Series Wheeled Excavators feature a completely rede-

signed state-of-the-art multifunction monitor with an easy-to-

read LCD screen. The monitor provides access to a wealth of

maintenance, diagnostic, and service information. Multiple-

language capability accommodates a variety of operators in

today’s construction environment.

Plenty of creature comforts, too, including an AM/FM radio,

automatic high-capacity climate-control system, ample storage,

and a convenient 12-volt port to power cell phones and other

electronic devices. > > >

A number of enhancements ensure the D-Series Wheeled

Excavators deliver unsurpassed reliability and uptime, includ-

ing larger chassis beams, swing bearings, and boom foot areas

on the 220D W. The PowerShift™ transmission is integrated

within the axle and relocated further above the ground to

protect it against damage. Larger D-channel side frames resist

impact to provide maximum cab and component protection.

There’s also a new cooling system designed to keep the engine

and hydraulics cool, even in tough environments.

These excavators maintain traditional John Deere durabil-

ity features, like tungsten-carbide thermal-coated surfaces

that protect the all-important bucket-to-arm joint and oil-

impregnated bushings that enhance durability and extend

grease intervals to 500 hours for the arm-and-boom joint and

100 hours for the bucket joint. Reinforced resin thrust plates

increase boom lube intervals to 500 hours.

And like John Deere tracked excavators, the 190D W and

220D W are loaded with features that make them hassle-free

to service and low-cost to maintain. Large, wide-open service

doors provide quick and easy access to daily service points.

Easy-access, remote-mounted vertical oil and fuel fi lters

can be changed without crawling under the machine or re-

moving access panels, reducing service time. The ground-level

fresh-air cab fi lter is quickly serviced from outside the cab,

where it’s more likely to get done.

Service intervals have been extended to 500 hours for

engine oil and 5,000 hours for hydraulic oil, so the excava-

tors require fewer stops between service. Plus the Machine

Information Center and state-of-the-art monitor with onboard

diagnostics help you make timely decisions about machine

upkeep — and maximize uptime, productivity, and profi ts.

So if you’re looking to put your operation on a roll, call

us today. ■

The best-in-class cab features substantially more legroom, notice-ably lower noise levels, and ergonomic low-effort controls.

Wider axles and increased weight provide more stability and lift capability on the 220D W.

Unlike unwieldy truck-mounted excavators, the D-Series’ short wheelbase makes them very adept at slipping into close quarters. Need to get in even closer? Opt for the two-piece boom.

Intuitive, multi-language LCD monitor provides a wealth of information and control, including maintenance tracking, onboard diagnostics, and service monitoring.

Highly reliable 5.2L engines deliver superior performance in all conditions, quick response, and better fuel economy, while meeting Tier 3 requirements.

New cooling system keeps the engine and hydraulics cool in the toughest environments. Fuel coolers and A/C condensers swing out, simplifying clean-out. Side-by-side coolers are easy to clean.

A wider expanse of right-hand window glass combined with narrower front cab posts and front steering console provide virtually unobstructed all-around visibility. Even the tinted overhead hatch is larger, making it easier to see obstacles up above.

Power + parallel = Powerllel

You don’t have to sacrifi ce powerful digging forces to get

parallel lift. The Powerllel linkage’s patented design gives

you the best of both worlds. So you can have your loader and

forklift, too.

“Some tool carriers have diffi culty with digging applica-

tions,” says David O’Keeffe, product marketing manager,

John Deere Construction & Forestry Company. “Our Powerllel

loaders are hard-digging machines with parallel lift, so they

are perfect for general contracting, underground, or road-

building work — any application where you are constantly

switching from buckets to forks to handle both grunt work

and jobs that require parallel lift.”

The power in the Powerllel linkage comes from an innova-

tive “free-fl oating” bell-crank design that allows load forces

to work with, not against, the boom for big breakout force.

Impressive torque throughout the entire dump and rollback

range also makes these machines ideal for tasks such as

sorting or loading logs. Whatever the job, Powerllel delivers

parallel lift without parallel. > > >

With nearly double the boom-cylinder torque, Powerllel provides big breakout, even in tough digging conditions. Impressive torque throughout the entire dump and rollback range also makes the machines ideal for loading logs and other tough tasks.




Here’s a tip for your Sharpie®…Not sure the last time a certain filter was changed?

There’s an easy, inexpensive fix you can get all your mechanics onboard with: Have them carry a Sharpie permanent marker on the job each day and mark each filter with the date of installation as that filter goes in. It’s fast and simple and saves guesswork down the line, especially if the unit is out in the field. No, we don’t have stock in Sharpie. We’re just here to help.

How it works

Unlike traditional linkages, Deere Powerllel’s unique design

separates the bell crank from the cross tube. Instead of being

attached to the boom like other designs, it is attached to the

loader frame via a Y-link.

I can see clearly now

The linkage design provides excellent visibility to the tool

throughout the working range. This takes the work out of

precisely placing loads, whether it’s pipe on jobsites or other

material-handling jobs. “Overall visibility is much better than

with the traditional-style linkage because the hi-vis coupler

optimizes the view of the work tool,” says O’Keeffe. “The

hooks are farther apart — in line with the boom arms and

higher on the bucket. This opens up an area in the middle to

give a much larger sight line to the attachment. This helps

operators work faster and more productively.”

The design of the hi-vis coupler ensures that the

attachment mounts closer to the machine, improving

the stability of the loader and enhancing breakout

performance. The improved load path also reduces

the load on the locking components, signifi cantly

enhancing reliability.

Deere Powerllel Loaders are an unmatched combi-

nation of powerful digging performance, level lift, and

unsurpassed visibility throughout the entire boom range.

Every time fluid is transferred from bulk storage to a machine is an oppor-tunity for dirt to contaminate the oil or hydraulic system. It also can be the source of some big-time messes with the resulting “Oil-Dri® moment.” Best-practice operations around the world are beginning to utilize sys-tems like Ultra-Clean for safe fluid handling. No more open containers to trap airborne dirt and abrasives in your machine. Ultra-Clean container lids feature sealing spouts and air vents to keep fluids clean. Color-coded components also let you pour the right fluid with confidence.

■ See-through drums with graduated markings for easier measuring.

■ Push-button auto-shutoff air intake allows secure lubricant pouring.

■ Ultra-Clean down-stroke pump delivers one liter approximately every 12 strokes.

■ Quick-twist spout is easy to open and close — controls flow and keeps dirt out.

■ Bright colors make dispensers easy to find and help color-code lubricant grades.

Step by step1 Expect inspections. Make sure you have the basics cov-ered: Truck and trailer inspections, driver time log, and a clear knowledge of your route and its restrictions.

2 Get your permits and know the curfew hours, weather, and weight and height restrictions. Regulations vary by state and even by city and county, so check your DOT website for specifi cs and scout the route yourself. Some areas provide an annual permit that requires additional fi lings for machine-and trip-specifi c permits if you exceed the equipment specifi -cations in your original fi lings.

“If you are hauling, you are supposed to know the law,” says Matt Hendry, John Deere excavator product consultant. “If you’re stopped, you cannot plead ignorance. Tickets go on your record and make your company look bad. Don’t think you can haul a big machine without a permit, because you can’t.”

Moving heavy, big-boy excavators can mean a rude intro-duction to the world of permits, specialized trailers, bridge heights and weights, curfew hours, weather restrictions, and increased liabilities. Plus those fl ags on your tractor and trailer are like waving a red cape in front of a bull — every-one knows no self-respecting DOT or law-enforcement offi cial can resist a cursory walk-around inspection of a “wide load.”

But don’t back off! In order to help you safely and legally navigate the highways and byways, we’ve compiled 16 steps and some sound advice from an industry expert. Remember, hauling your own equipment can speed deliveries and save you money.

Selecting the trailerTo select the correct trailer, you need to answer

some questions: How big will your largest load be? How much does it weigh? What about transport width and length? Remember, the transport width for an excavator is different than the operating width. Large excavators usually have a retractable undercarriage that narrows the machine width.

Once you’ve answered these questions, you’re ready to choose the correct mode of transportation: a three-axle tractor with a drop axle, a two- or three-axle jeep, a three-axle trailer, and maybe a stinger axle on the trailer. The gross combined weight of your heaviest load determines the option. The most popular type of trailer is the detachable gooseneck. Most drivers prefer a wooden deck to a metal one because the tracks don’t slide as much and the planks are great for lining up the tracks during loading.

3 Position your trailer in a level, easy-to-work-in area, with plenty of vertical clearance. Disconnect the tractor from the trailer. Make sure your trailer surface is clean.

4 Before cleaning, drive the excavator up to the front of the trailer. Find an experienced operator if you are not.

5 Rotate the cab, boom, and arm so they are over the side or perpendicular to either track. Push downward until the track rises off the ground. Rotate the track to shake off mud and dirt. Repeat on the other track. Clean the undercarriage and tracks with a shovel and a broom to remove all “unse-cured cargo” — as the DOT likes to call anything that can fl y or bounce off.

Don’t take any shortcuts on this step. Debris that comes off the excavator or trailer while in transit can, at the mini-mum, get you pulled over and fi ned, and at the worst, cause a serious accident.

6 Drive the excavator onto the trailer, being careful to keep it centered. Go slow and steady. It is criti-cal that the rollers are on the edge of the trailer on both sides. Position

Tow by numbers16 steps to moving your big excavator to the jobsite on time

the bucket and arm so they are tucked in as low and as tight as possible, then put them over the rear wheels so the counter-weight faces the truck. This is easier on gooseneck trailers be-cause the excavator is loaded from the front. Many trailers have a cutout over the rear axles to allow the boom to sit down lower. Take the hydraulic load off the system, kill the engine, remove the key, and lock the cab on the way out.

Large excavators require careful positioning on the trailer since part of the tracks may protrude out from the side of the trailer bed.

Don’t move attachments or spare buckets with the excavator. Adding items like attachments makes it a multiple-piece ship-ment. They add much more weight and are probably illegal for the type permit you have, so transport those separately. Excavators over 100,000 pounds require removing the counter-weight, the bucket, and/or the stick components — these should be transported as separate loads. > > >

7 Before you chain down the excavator, hitch the trailer to the truck so you’re securing the load for travel. Now secure all four points of the tracks — left and right front, left and right rear — to the trailer. Prevent the chain

from breaking or slipping by hooking it onto the middle of a track section instead of into a crack between the sections.

Lever binders are approved, but ratcheting binders are preferred. Check your chains, hooks, and binders for wear; replace any damaged parts. That goes for the attachment points on the trailer, too. Make sure all the chain/binder tie-downs are rated for one-half the weight of the unit being hauled. A binder at one rating paired with a chain at a lower rating (or vice versa) will count at the lower rating.

8 Fasten the cab and attach one chain over the boom near the bucket or across the inside of the arm, securing it to the frame rails or chain eyelets on the side of the trailer. Avoid the cylinders and hoses. When hauling a new machine or one with a nice paint job, protect the body with something like an old mud fl ap to pad the chain.

9 Secure the front and the back of the excavator with four chains that crisscross. Manufacturers have attachment points on the under-carriage, two in the front and two in the back. Tighten them down on opposite sides of the trailer.

888888 FFFaaaassstte

10 Place fl ags on the tracks if they stick out three inches or more. Use a full fl ag on each track on the back of the ex-cavator, closest to the tractor, so it goes around the corner of the track. Use a half fl ag on each track that’s toward the rear of the trailer so it fl utters in the wind.

11 Now that you have the excavator in position and se-cured, double-check for loose dirt and, if necessary, sweep again.

12 Fold in the cab mirrors. Tape over the ex-cavator exhaust pipe to prevent it from being clogged with foreign objects during transport.

13 Unfurl your wide-load banners at the front of the tractor and the rear of the trailer. Unfurl your front bumper fl ags.

14 Measure the height of the load and make sure the route will accommodate that height. Do one last walk-around.

15 After you’ve pulled away from the site or yard, stop a few blocks down the road and double-check your rigging. Check your mirrors often. If you are going a long dis-tance, pull over after a few miles and check the rigging again. Also keep in mind that few people on the road realize how wide you

may need to turn or how long it takes you to stop.

16 Finally, don’t rush things. Most accidents happen be-cause the driver was in a hurry. You don’t want to be the guy who lost an excavator off a trailer because he was only going a mile down the road so he put it on the trailer sideways without any chains or fl ags. And you sure don’t want to be the guy who hit a bridge because he didn’t bother to measure the height of the load.

“A lot of hauling is common sense,” says Hendry. “Take your time and don’t get in a hurry. If you do something ille-gal, it hurts everyone. You always need to be thinking of what can go wrong.

“Hauling large excavators requires an experienced driver and pre-planning. Do it by the numbers and the haul will likely go well. Cut corners, and you invite disaster.” ■
