When Deere engineers set out to design the ulti-

mate waste handlers, they couldn’t have picked

better platforms. With their full-featured hydro-

static drivetrains, the 950J and 1050J Waste

Handlers deliver automatic power management,

infinite ground speeds, power turns, and all kinds

of hydrostatically driven productivity advantages.

But power and nimble performance are just the

beginning of the John Deere story. To make

them the best possible landfill dozers, Deere

engineers went right to the source — solid waste

managers — to think through the solutions a

purpose-built waste handler can provide. To see

how we applied what we learned, turn the page.

Rugged and reliable J-Series

are powerful performers,

designed and purpose-built

with extensive input from solid-

waste professionals like you.

John Deere’s full-featured

hydrostatic drivetrains

deliver production-boosting

advantages you don’t get

with other crawlers.

Cooling system enhancements

such as wide-fi n cooler

cores and hydraulic fans with

automatic reversers help

beat the heat, for maximum

uptime and productivity.

Available rear counterweight

“doghouse” provides conven-

ient storage and is an ideal

location for fi re-suppression

system components.

Five-fi n-per-inch engine and charge-air

coolers let dust and debris easily pass through

the cores. For more effi cient cooling and

easier clean-out.

while keeping its cool.

Quarter-turn latches on the hinged front grille

allow quick and easy access for maintenance

and cleaning.

Hydraulically driven variable-speed suction fans

operate only as needed, reducing noise, fuel con-

sumption, component wear, and operating costs.

If you can’t take the heat, stay out of the landfi ll. We heard that loud and clear. So go ahead and put them

through their paces — the J-Series Waste Handlers have what it takes to keep their cool in a hostile world.

Three-millimeter perforations

in the hood and side shields

act as a “fi rst fi lter,” preventing

entry of most airborne debris.

Variable-speed engine/

charge-air- and hydraulic/

hydrostatic-cooler fans run

only as needed, reducing

noise, fuel consumption,

cooling component wear,

and operating costs.

No stacked coolers in these

crawlers. Radiators and

engine charge-air coolers

are mounted side-by-side, so

they’re easier to clean.

Suction-type fans

automatically reverse every

30 minutes to blow away

refuse and help prevent

plugging. They can also be

manually activated from the

seat as needed.

Traditional oval under-

carriage has only one

wear-causing forward-travel

fl ex point. Compared to the

three found on elevated

sprocket undercarriages,

which do you think will last

longer?

Relentless.

Relentless.

Heavy-duty ten-light package

includes four mounted on the

lift cylinders to help illuminate

the way. Lights are guarded

to minimize damage. Cab is

pre-wired for a beacon.

Cab waste barrier prevents

refuse from the tracks

from accumulating in the

powertrain.

Comprehensive hose-guard

system and internal routing

keep hydraulic hoses out of

harm’s way. Generous ground

clearance and smooth belly

guards resist catching and

carrying waste.

Dual-stage pre-cleaner

and under-hood fi lter

help prolong engine life.

Alternator incorporates a

hood-mounted fresh-air

pre-cleaner to help keep out

airborne abrasives.

Turbocharged diesels

deliver impressive power

at a low rpm for enhanced

longevity and optimum fuel

economy. Wet-type cylinder

liners dissipate heat for

reduced ring wear and oil

breakdown.

You won’t have operators standing by with a

John Deere waste handler. We sweat the de-

tails to make these crawlers’ bulletproof design

waste proof as well. If something’s susceptible

to damage, we’ve sealed, moved, re-routed, or

re-engineered it — all in the name of uptime.

Optional front and/or rear

striker bars shed material

from the tracks and help

prevent trash buildup around

the idlers. Trapezoidal track

pad cutouts and recessed

sprocket segments resist

undercarriage packing.

Fuel-tank guard and heavy-

duty hinged bottom guards

minimize damage. In addition,

heavy-duty reinforcement

bars on the grille, engine side

shields, and hydraulic/hydro-

static-cooler cover protect vital

components.

You know the cost of fi nal-drive repairs. John Deere’s unique design offers

unsurpassed protection. Bolt-on seal guards provide the fi rst defense.

Debris that gets past this point encounters an oil-fi lled double seal outside

the fi nal drive. If debris penetrates the fi rst seal, oil escapes, setting off

a visual warning within the cab, alerting the operator to shut down the

machine. The second seal maintains oil in the fi nal drives. It’s an early

warning system that can help avoid downtime and expense.

Turbocharger and exhaust-

manifold thermal shield

keeps these high-heat

engine components under

wraps to reduce fi re hazards.

Replaceable half-shell

bearings within the dozer

push beams provide

longer component life and

simplifi ed replacement.

Sight gauges provide

quick daily checks of hy-

draulic/transmission and

fi nal-drive fl uids. Monitor

signals an alert should

these levels drop.

Convenient test ports, in-

line fl uid-sampling ports,

and diagnostic monitor

keep maintenance and

operating costs to a

minimum.

No need to disconnect

cooling system or hydrau-

lic hoses when tilting the

cab. Built-in jack provides

quick and easy service

access to drivetrain

components. Simplifi es

Your maintenance crew won’t have to crawl all over these crawlers to maintain them. Like all Deere

equipment, daily and periodic service points are conveniently grouped, with many behind hinged side

shields that open wide, simplifying fl uid and fi lter checks for increased uptime.

All daily engine-service

checks are accomplished

on the right side. Extended

maintenance intervals let

you go longer between

scheduled service.

Conveniently displayed

periodic lubrication and

ensure that nothing is

overlooked.

with easy-to-understand

messages for quick, easy

troubleshooting without

These purpose-built waste handlers have every-

thing they need for maximum uptime, minimum

maintenance, and unsurpassed performance. The

J-Series’ hydrostatic-drive system goes beyond

the limits of other dozers, delivering infinite speed

control, power management, and full power turns.

With conventional torque-converter transmission

and clutch/brake or differential steering systems,

other dozers just don’t deliver the same operating

ease. But hydrostatic drive isn’t the only thing

that enables the 950J and 1050J to exceed the

others. Their traditional oval undercarriage design

also incorporates several features that help them

deliver long life and a smooth, productive ride.

PAG ES

Electronic monitor and gauges (including hydraulic/transmission oil

temperature gauge) keep a vigilant watch on vital functions. Issues both

visual and audible warnings.

Spacious and quiet air-conditioned cab provides unsurpassed all-round

visibility and daylong comfort. Insulated HVAC ducting and AC compressor

lines signifi cantly improve cooling effi ciency.

Just set maximum desired

ground speed and power

management does the

rest. As loads change,

the drivetrain automati-

cally powers up or down to

maintain peak engine rpm

and effi ciency. Travel speed

in either direction can also

be limited, to maximize

undercarriage life.

Infi nitely variable track

control lets an operator

speed up or slow power to

each track — for smooth,

full power turns of any

radius. Unlike dozers with

differential steering, tight

turns are possible at any

travel speed.

Hydraulic tilt and available

blade pitch help keep the

load in front of the blade.

Optional trash rack does

its job without sacrifi cing

visibility.

Pilot-operated single lever

gives intuitive, low-effort

control of steering, forward/

reverse travel, and ground

speed. One-hundred

percent of available power

is always applied, regard-

less of the selected speed

range, for top productivity

all the time.

Available extreme-service

pre-cleaner fi lters incom-

ing air, helping make the

sealed and pressurized cab

even more operator friendly.

CONTROL OWNING AND OPERATING COSTS

Customer Personal Service (CPS) is part of John Deere’s proactive,fix-before-fail strat­egy on machine maintenance that will help control costs, increase profits, and reduce
stress. Included in this comprehensive lineup of ongoing programs and services are:

you approximately how many hours of use you can expect from an engine, transmission,
or hydraulic pump.This information can be used to preempt catastrophic downtime by
servicing major components at about 80 percent of their life cycle.
