SmartTEC performance monitoring assists operators with adjustments to machine controls to help improve efficiency and tracks the operational performance of the machine on a consistent platform across all machine models.
It is also a rollover protective module (ROPM) and provides falling object protection (FOPS).
The sealed cab has self-contained heating and air conditioning with sound attenuating foam.
The elevating cab allows optimal visibility and added comfort with the air ride seat.
An oscillating track frame allows the track to follow the ground’s contour, providing a vertical trench on slopes up to 10.5°.
Features may include:
- Low-speed, high-torque splined headshaft motor improves cutting performance and minimizes chain wear
- Vermeer SmartTEC electronic control system monitors real-time machine performance
- The Tier 3 or Tier 4 Final John Deere® 6090 HF diesel engine provides the power to dig up to 8 ft (2.4 m) deep
