Other buttons are available to enable grade control, increment/decrement grade control, blade shake (PAT only), and return to pitch (outside dozer only). The new transmission joystick has a rocker switch to control the forward-neutral-reverse (FNR) direction of travel and the hydraulic control lever includes a proportional thumb roller precise blade angle or power pitch adjustments. The 850L boasts all-new, ergonomic control joysticks for the transmission and hydraulic functions. Other new options on the 850L include a rear camera and automatic temperature control. Additionally, a new heated and ventilated seat option further increases operator comfort. The new HVAC system incorporates a long-life brushless motor for improved airflow to keep operators comfortable all day, no matter the conditions outside the cab. A new, angled seat keeps operators comfortable while using the rear implement or looking rearward.

The cab has 15 percent more space and interior operator noise was reduced by 27 percent when compared to the K-Series model. Inside the cab, a new operator station was designed with input from the John Deere Customer Advocate Group.

SmartGrade technology removes the need to install blade-mounted sensors and components daily, reducing setup time, and allows operators to get more work done. This technology is integrated into the dozer – eliminating external cables to the masts, which reduces breakage, and the removal of the masts from the blades helps decrease vulnerability to theft and damage. Owners also have the ability to purchase the machine with John Deere SmartGrade™. The Dubuque, Iowa manufactured dozer also comes standard with grade control-ready electrohydraulic (EH) valves – making it easy to add a grade control system. All 850L configurations now utilize an eight-roller design with 130-inches (3302 mm) of track on ground, increasing productivity, stability, and gradeability. At 172-inches (4369 mm), the new blade increases productivity, especially in grading applications.

The new dozer is available the widest Power Angle Tilt (PAT) blade in its class. Like all John Deere dozers, the 850L features a dual-path hydrostatic transmission, now with 13 percent larger pumps than the K-Series. Auto-idle and idle shutdown are also standard which further minimize fuel costs. Equipped with the popular Eco mode feature, fuel consumption is reduced by up to 20 per cent, without sacrificing performance.

At 225 horsepower (168 kW), the 850L has more horsepower than any dozer in its size class. The 850L incorporates an EPA Final Tier 4 John Deere PSS 9.0L diesel engine that provides a 10 per cent increase in horsepower. Coupled with an extraordinary focus on reliability and uptime, you have the winning combination our customers are asking for.” “The 850L combines muscle, efficiency and balance for impressive new levels of performance. “Our K-Series dozers are a favourite with customers, and thanks to their ongoing feedback, the next generation of Deere dozers are our strongest, most durable and productive yet,” said Nathan Horstman, crawler product marketing manager, John Deere Construction & Forestry. – The new John Deere 850L Dozer boasts the productivity, reliability, and durability customers expect in a production dozer.
