John Deere 870G LC, 670G LC Specifications

670G LC/870G LC

67–87 metric ton

Expect big things.

When the task demands a serious excavator to get it done, get a John Deere G-Series. With more hydraulic ﬂ ow than their highly productive predecessors, our 670G LC and 870G LC deliver faster work cycles to move more material on a gallon of fuel. Their rugged Interim Tier 4/EU Stage IIIB diesels enable you to work, wherever there’s work, even in nonattainment areas. Numerous customer-inspired reﬁ nements include a more comfortable and spacious cab. And an enhanced LCD monitor with simpliﬁ ed navigation that lets an operator easily dial-in a wealth of machine information and functionality. If you’re looking to amass more productivity, our G-Series Excavators are a great place to start.

The IT4/Stage IIIB technology utilized in our diesel engines is simple, fuel efﬁ cient, fully integrated, and fully supported.

Hydraulically driven, highly efﬁ cient fan runs only as needed, reducing noise, fuel consumption, and operating costs. Standard operator-selectable reversing option automatically back-blows cooler cores to keep them clean.

With a larger entryway, more legroom, and standard airsuspension heated seat, the G-Series’ reﬁ ned cab delivers even more convenience and comfort.

Extended engine and hydraulic oil-service intervals increase uptime and reduce daily operating costs.

670G LC and 870G LC are standard equipped with JDLink™ Ultimate, giving you 24/7 online access to your excavator. Track machine health, utilization, and fuel consumption — valuable information that helps you better understand costs and jobsite performance. Plus, you can help protect your equipment from unauthorized movement by setting up geofence and curfew alerts in your JDLink account.

Powerwise III perfectly balances engine performance and hydraulic ﬂ ow for predictable operation. Three productivity modes allow you to choose the digging style that ﬁ ts the job. High-productivity delivers more power and faster hydraulic response to move more material. Power delivers a balance of power and speed for normal operation. Economy limits top speed and helps save fuel.

Choose from a variety of track widths, arm lengths, buckets, and other options.

Smart choice.

Make no mistake, our G-Series Excavators deliver plenty of productive punch. But the 670G LC and 870G LC aren’t all brawn and no brains. Smart features like our Powerwise™ III engine/ hydraulic management system with multiple productivity modes enable you to put that extra ability to use with the same kind of smooth precision that operators have come to expect from our excavators. What’s more, advantages such as our JDLink Ultimate machine monitoring system and Service ADVISOR™ diagnostics help keep you informed about machine utilization

and maintenance. Who says you have to choose between working harder or smarter?

1. For work that requires extra ﬁ nesse, short-throw low-effort controls, unmatched metering, and smooth multifunction operation give you the precision you need.

2. Their exceptional swing torque, lift capacity, and arm and bucket digging force provide generous muscle for mass excavating or hot truck loading.

3. When conditions call for a little extra, simply press the power-boost button on the right-hand control and muscle through.

Here’s a new twist on operating ease.

Now it’s easier than ever for your operators to “dial things up.” The G-Series’ reﬁ ned monitor employs a turn-and-tap rotary control that provides quick access to an abundance of performance and convenience features and functions. Operators will also appreciate the standard air-suspension high-back heated seat and increased legroom in the spacious, well-appointed cab. As always, unsurpassed all-round visibility, low-effort joysticks, a highly efﬁ cient HVAC system, and numerous other amenities provide all your operators need to tap into their abilities. And push productivity to the max.

With large self-cleaning steps, convenient handholds, and wide entryways, getting to “the ofﬁ ce” has never been easier.

Spacious cab is comfortable and noticeably quiet. Silicone-ﬁ lled mounts effectively isolate operators from noise and vibration.

We’ve got your back. Standard equipment includes a multi-position air-suspension heated seat. With 267 mm (10½ in.) of travel, sliding together or independent of the joystick console, there’s plenty of legroom so it won’t cramp an operator’s style.

Ergonomically correct shortthrow pilot levers provide smooth, predictable ﬁ ngertip control.

No shortage of storage in here. There’s a place for a cooler, cup holders, and even a hot/cold box that keeps food or beverages at just the right temperature.

1. Multi-language LCD monitor and rotary dial provide intuitive access to a wealth of information and functions. Just turn and tap to select work mode, access operating info, check maintenance intervals, source diagnostic codes, adjust cab temperature, and tune the radio. Plus much more.

2. Wide expanse of front and side glass, narrow front cab posts, large overhead glass, and numerous mirrors provide virtually unobstructed all-around visibility. A rear-mount camera displays the activity behind you on the monitor in front of you.

3. Automatic, high-velocity bi-level climate-control system with automotive-style adjustable louvers helps keep the glass clear and the cab comfortable.

Lights on the cab and both sides of the boom illuminate the way

for work that begins or extends beyond daylight.

Nothing runs like a Deere, because nothing is built like one.

Chances are, you’ve got plenty of people, equipment, and other resources relying on your excavators. And you can depend on our G-Series to deliver. Both 670G LC and 870G LC employ many of the same job-proven digging structures and hydraulic, electrical, and undercarriage components as their highly regarded D-Series predecessors. You’ll also continue to proﬁ t from durability-enhancing “extras” such as welded boom bulkheads, reinforced D-channel side frames, heavy-duty cooling systems, and extended service intervals. When you know how they’re built, you’ll run a Deere.

Our IT4/Stage IIIB technology is simple, fuel efﬁ cient, fully integrated, and fully supported. It employs ﬁ eld-proven cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) for reducing NOx, and a diesel particulate ﬁ lter and a diesel oxidation catalyst to reduce particulate matter. Periodic active and passive regeneration automatically cleans the ﬁ lter without impacting machine productivity.

1. Thick-plate single-sheet mainframe, box-section track frames, and industry-exclusive double-seal swing bearings deliver rock-solid durability.

2. Rigid, reinforced D-channel side frames provide maximum cab and component protection.

A John Deere exclusive, three welded bulkheads within the boom resist torsional stress for unsurpassed durability. In fact, boom, arm, and mainframe are so tough, they’re warranted for three years or 10,000 hours.

3. With strutted links and large idlers and rollers, the sealed and lubricated heavy-duty undercarriage delivers long and reliable performance.

4. Highly efﬁ cient, heavy-duty cooling system keeps things cool, even in tough environments or high altitudes.
