John Deere new K-Series backhoe loaders

John Deere has announced to introduce its K-Series Backhoe Loaders which includes eight productive and efficient models (310K EP, 310K, 310SK, 310SK TC, 315SK, 410K, 410K TC, 710K) that build on the success of the popular J-Series.

According to the release, two economical tractor loader models (210K EP, 210K) would also being released to help round out the K-Series and would provide workers with additional job site. The new K-Series models deliver productivity, uptime and lower daily operating costs that operators expect from John Deere equipment.

The new K-Series can meet today's emission regulations. Powered by a certified IT4/ Stage III B John Deere PowerTech™ engine, the K-Series comes equipped with a five-speed transmission that allows top speeds of 25 mph when roading. An optional AutoShift transmission enables smooth shifting and improves operator comfort by reducing the number of times the Transmission Control Lever (TCL) needs to be actuated during operation. A single loader lever with integrated electro-hydraulic (EH) auxiliary loader control eliminates the need for a second lever when using a multi-purpose bucket. In addition, a complete redesign of the cab ventilation now circulates cab air from front-to-back, directing airflow where operators need it the most.
