E230-II John Deere Construction excavator specs & Dimensions (2022 - 2026)

Move more dirt

Choose the right tool for the job. A wide selection of buckets with different taper angles, capacities, and widths can be tailored to your application, for excellent bucket-fill performance and material retention.

General-Purpose Buckets (GP)

General-Purpose buckets are provided as standard equipment and engineered to meet or exceed customer expectations in light-duty applications. These buckets are designed to dig and excavate soft to medium materials such as earth, loam, sand, and fine gravel.

Heavy-Duty Buckets (HD)

Heavy-Duty buckets are provided as optional equipment and engineered to meet or exceed customer expectations in moderate-duty or mixed applications. These buckets are designed to dig and excavate in dry or wet clay, compacted soils, and well-blasted rock applications.

Cooler core cleanout

Highly efficient, electronically controlled variable-speed suction-type cooling fan runs only as fast as needed, lowering noise, fuel consumption, and operating costs.

Fuel savers

Auto-idle automatically reduces engine speed when hydraulics aren’t in use, saving precious fuel. Automatic turbo cool-down extends idle time before shutdown, to maximise component life.

More flow on the go

Need more hydraulic flow for a hammer, grapple, or other attachment? Multiple auxiliary hydraulic lines enable compatibility with a variety of couplers and attachments.

Easy to service

Ground-level access and grouped service points make it fast and easy to perform most daily checks, greasing, and filter changes, so you can get to work quickly. Extended 500-hour engine oil and 4,000-hour hydraulic oil-service intervals minimise downtime for routine maintenance.

Keep it clean

Isolated side-by-side coolers are easy to clean. Optional trash screen that blocks dust, leaves, and other debris from entering the system is also simple to maintain. Air-conditioner condenser swings out for wide-open access to coolers.

Fast cycle times

Generous flow, arm force, and swing torque help speed cycles. So you can do your best to stay on schedule or ahead of the weather.
