Equipment Overview
The John Deere E300 is a 32.1-tonne excavator built for mass excavation, part of John Deere’s E-Series large excavator range alongside the E330LC, E360, E380LC and E400LC. Heavy-duty booms and arms, a robust electrical system and optimised hydraulic routing deliver excellent uptime, and steel ribs protect the arm when curling a loaded bucket. Its Intelligent Hydraulic (JD-IHC) system is fully integrated with the engine for fast, smooth response, and auto pressure-boost delivers extra hydraulic power when the digging gets tough.
Power comes from a John Deere PowerTech Plus 6068 engine, a 6.8-litre 6-cylinder diesel producing 160 kW gross at 2,000 rpm and 1,033 Nm of torque at 1,400 rpm, meeting EPA Tier 3 and EU Stage IIIA emissions standards. Bucket digging force reaches 212 kN and arm force 150 kN with pressure boost engaged. Four power modes and three work modes let the operator match hydraulic response to the task, and a 7-inch touch-screen monitor gives quick access to machine settings, diagnostics and JDLink telematics data.
