With numerous improvements, the John Deere 17D compact excavator provides adjustable-width tracks and a new backfill blade with foldable end sections. When the tracks are retracted and the blade’s end sections folded, the machine fits through a 40-inch opening. When fully extended to over 50 inches, the undercarriage provides maximum stability.
Additionally, the 17D has faster operating speeds, additional weight and 10 percent more hydraulic flow. Travel speeds have also been increased, and the new long-arm/heavy counterweight option provides an additional eight inches of digging depth and reach.
