John Deere Forestry & Construction expands its new Interim Tier 4-certified G Series hydraulic excavator line with three new models. Weighing in at 47 metric tons, the 470G LC (pictured) is a 367-hp unit designed for large commercial excavating projects and roadbuilding. The 67-metric ton 463-hp 670G LC and the 87-metric-ton 532-hp 870G LC are suited for mass excavating or truck-loading applications. By using the LCD monitor’s rotary control, operators have quick access to operating information such as engine rpm and oil temperature, and they can easily check maintenance intervals, adjust cab temperature, tune the radio and select work modes. www.deere.com/wps/dcom/en_US/regional_home.page
