Overview
![Quick Coupler System](https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/construction/compact_excavators/17_g/attachments.jpg)
Think of changing attachments as a system. With the quick connect auxiliary couplers and the manual quick coupler for attachments, changeover to the next attachment is quick with minimal downtime. When using hydraulic attachments, the auxiliary selector valve lets you quickly choose between attachment one-way and two-way flows.
Benefits
- The standard selector valve allows the connection of two attachments at the same time. Supply/return oil can be diverted from one to the other by changing the valve position.
- John Deere augers can be equipped with numerous sizes of rock, heavy-duty, standard, and tree/shrub bits.
- Hydraulic hammers are perfect for quarry or trench work and concrete removal. Use them to break rock, concrete flatwork, and walls; around rebar; or to a precut line.
- The clamp, sometimes referred to as a thumb, can be used in conjunction with buckets. This aids in the removal of material if it is bulky and does not fit into the bucket completely.
Additional details
![Wide variety of buckets and attachments](https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/construction/compact_excavators/17_g/cb_attachments_2.jpg)
- Compact excavators use common buckets and attachments that customers who own other John Deere compact machines may already have in their fleets.
Overview
![Backfill Blade](https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/construction/compact_excavators/26_g/cb_backfill_blade.jpg)
Make a sizable impact on your productivity and profitability with the backfill blade. The backfill blade can be used to level and backfill trenches. It is the same width as the undercarriage width. The blade can add versatility by using the blade and bucket to clamp and carry pipe, rocks, or other bulky items. A bolt-on cutting edge is available as optional equipment for the backfill blade.
Benefits
- Backfill blade adds versatility, enabling these compact excavators to grade and fill.
- Provides extra stability with attachments or when working on uneven terrain.
![Operator comfort with larger cab](https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/construction/compact_excavators/60_g/60g_operator_comfort_with_larger_cab_304x450.jpg)

Additional Details
![Canopy option](https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/construction/compact_excavators/60_g/60g_canopy_option_450x426.jpg)
- All canopies and cabs meet the following safety requirements:
- Tip Over Protective Structure (TOPS), Roll Over Protective Structure (ROPS), and Falling Object Protective Structure (FOPS)
- The optional cab comes standard with a heater
- Both the cab and canopy units come with a step area for entry and exit
![Automatic shifting](https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/construction/compact_excavators/60_g/60g_automatic_shifting_450x318.jpg)
- An auto speed change system for high speed travel is employed.
- The turtle speed lock switch will keep the machine in low when propelling.
- The rabbit speed lock will always keep the unit in the higher mode unless a large load is applied to travel like steering changes.
- The machine will then automatically shift to low but return to high when the load is reduced.
Overview
![Service access](https://salesmanual.deere.com/sales/salesmanual/images/NA/construction/compact_excavators/26_g/cb_serviceability.jpg)
Extended maintenance intervals enable the machine to remain working for longer periods of productive work before the need to service. This greatly increases uptime and productivity of the unit. Hinged door provides wide-open access to the side-by-side oil cooler, radiator, as well as battery. Cooler design resists trash buildup and allows easier core cleanout. Access is quick and convenient.
Benefits
- Extended oil change and greasing intervals contribute to low daily operating costs.
- Oil impregnated front joint bushings allow the unit to extend grease intervals. Not only does it increase the time between greasing of the unit, this greatly reduces the chances of a problem occurring due to improper maintenance causing downtime to the operation.
- The additional service door allows the operator and technician better access to components during daily service checks and routine maintenance for improved uptime.
- Parts and service are available at over 1,400 John Deere dealers throughout North America.
- Wet-disc swing brake provides long-term maintenance-free performance.
- No aftertreatment devices needed reducing maintenance and expense.
