Over 100 Years Of Experience -- John Deere Backhoes
The company that we know today as John Deere began a long time ago -- 1837, to be exact. Today it is perhaps the foremost construction equipment manufacturer and distributor in the United States. And as you might expect, John Deere manufactures a number of different models of backhoes.
To simplify, we can say that John Deere backhoes can be categorized in terms of their digging depth: under 14 feet, from 14-15 feet, and over 15 feet. John Deere manufactures a total of 10 models of backhoes. Here is a brief synopsis (description) of a few of them --
If you need a smaller-sized backhoe, but one that is still capable of handling construction-sized projects, you should choose the model 110 TLB. This John Deere backhoe has features such as a 43 hp, direct injection diesel engine, a specially-designed load sensing drive system to minimize stalling out the unit, and boom arms made from high strength, low-alloy steel.
Next, in the 14 feet-15 feet category, we have the John Deere 310J loader backhoe. This John Deere backhoe features a power shift transmission, with four speed ranges in Ford, and two speed ranges in reverse. The engine is rated at 72 hp -- is a four cylinder 276 cubic inch powerhouse. This John Deere backhoe has a maximum digging depth of 14'3", and a truck loading height of 10'11".
Another John Deere backhoe, also in the 14 feet-15 feet category, is the 310SJ TMC TC. This is a tool carrier with Total Machine Control (TMC), which allows this backhoe to be operated in 3 modes -- craning, normal, or high-production mode. This John Deere backhoe makes use of special design features that allows for extremely precise control of this unit no matter how is being used. If you are looking for a larger sized John Deere backhoe, you should choose one of four available models in the 15 feet and over dig depth category: the 410J, the 410J TMC, the 410J TMC Tool Carrier, and the 710J. The D410J John Deere backhoe boasts a 96 hp, 2100-rpm 4-cylinder, 276 cubic inch engine. The brakes on this unit are of the wet multiple disc type and are hydraulically activated. This John Deere backhoe has a maximum digging depth of 15'10", a truck loading height of 12'6" and a total boom lift capacity rated at 3136 pounds (at ground level). Finally, we mentioned the model 710J John Deere loader backhoe. This backhoe comes equipped with a powerful 123 hp 6-cylinder, 414 cubic inch engine. The transmission on the 710J is 4-speed in foreword, and 3-speed in reverse. This John Deere backhoe uses an axial-piston hydraulic system pump type, and has a maximum digging depth of 17'10". The 710J has a truck loading height of 14'3", and can be ordered with an optional extendable dipper stick which will give you a 4'6" extension.
