John Deere 30 P-Tier

Compact Excavators

Working within close lot lines and tight deadlines, you need to get the most from your “mini” machine. Driven to deliver a compact excavator that provides big productivity and outsized versatility, we enhanced our capable 30 P-Tier to boast more lift capacity and breakout force than previous models.
And we reimagined the proven standard and optional advantages you’ve come to expect from the John Deere P-Tier lineup.
DIG THIS BIG "SMALL" IDEA

Armed to handle a wide range of underground, building, landscape, and site-development tasks, the 30 P-Tier is also ideal for most rental fleets. Try it on for size.

  • Make yourself at home Spacious operator station has a wide entryway and backhoe- to excavator-style controls. Swing boom and foldable travel pedals are positioned for efficient operation and comfortable foot room. Optional fourseason cab features front glass that delivers expansive visibility.
  • Work, run, repeat Reduced-tail-swing design maximizes maneuverability and performance in cramped places and tight spaces. Compact stature permits easy transport between jobsites, perfect for “dig-and-go” projects.
  • Go with the flow More net horsepower than the previous model drives a larger hydraulic pump, increasing productive flow. Higher-flow hydraulic pumps power larger attachments more efficiently.
  • Get back to it Standard backfill blade enables the 30 P-Tier to grade and fill, boosting machine versatility and stability when using attachments or working on uneven terrain.
  • Resource management Auto-idle automatically reduces engine speed when hydraulics aren’t in use. Auto shutdown conserves precious fuel. Power/ economy modes optimize power for digging applications, further improving fuel efficiency.
  • Quick-change artist Standard selector valve allows the connection of two attachments at the same time by changing the valve position to divert supply/return oil from one to the other. Wedge-style coupler enables quick changes and accepts a wide variety of buckets and attachments, such as hydraulic hammers, plate compactors, and augers.
  • It hardly seems like work Track speeds automatically slow to low whenever a heavier load is encountered, then return to high when the load normalizes. No pedal or operator activation is required for high-speed travel.
  • See what you can do Conveniently located in a compartment beneath the seat, control pattern selector valve includes a sight glass that displays the selected pattern.
  • As tough as they come Heavy-duty side shields deflect material and impacts, protecting propel motors and boom/blade cylinders. Securely clamped steel hydraulic lines and CORDURA® covering on rubber hoses provide extra durability. Box-constructed X-frame and track frames are rock solid and rugged.
  • Maintenance matters Hinged door provides wideopen access to the side-byside oil cooler and radiator. Cooler system is designed to resist trash buildup and allow quick and easy core cleanout. Extended service intervals let the machine work longer before maintenance is needed.
  • Make the most of your investment Already own some John Deere attachments? Many models including buckets, hydraulic hammers, and augers also work on other compact machines so you can redefine fleet utilization — and your bottom line.
  • Connected machines John Deere construction equipment comes with in-base connectivity — free from subscriptions or annual renewals. Analyze critical machine data, track utilization, review diagnostic alerts, and more from the John Deere Operations Center™. The Operations Center also enables John Deere Connected Support™, which uses data from thousands of connected machines to proactively address issues before they arise. Your dealer can also remotely monitor machine health, diagnose problems, and even update machine software without a trip to the jobsite.
