Features

Industry's Largest PAT Blade Offering

Large machine pushing a mound of dirt among rough soil piles and bare trees.

John Deere’s 950 P-Tier dozer boosts productivity with the industry’s largest six-way PAT blade, adding 3800 lb. (1723.7 kg) of operating weight and an additional 15 hp (11.2 kW). Its dual path hydrostatic transmission and optional 3D SmartGrade™ system enhance control, fuel efficiency, and grading precision.

Cab Improves Comfort and Reduces Fatigue

Powertrain

Transmission TypeAutomatic, dual-path, hydrostatic drive; load-sensing feature automatically adjusts speed and power to match changing load conditions; each individually controlled track is powered by a variable-displacement piston pump and motor combination; ground-speed selection buttons on single-lever steering and direction control; independently selectable reverse speed ratios of 100% ,115%, or 130% of forward ground speed; decelerator pedal controls ground speed to stop.
System Relief Pressure6650 psi
Forward Travel Speed6.8 mph
Forward Travel Speed11 km/h
Reverse Travel Speed6.8 mph
Reverse Travel Speed11 km/h
Maximum (Optional) Travel Speed6.8 mph
Maximum (Optional) Travel Speed11 km/h
Filter, Charge Oil10 micron
CoolingOil-to-air
Steering TypeSingle-lever steering, speed, direction control, and counterrotation; full power turns and infinitely variable track speeds provide unlimited maneuverability and optimum control; hydrostatic steering eliminates steering clutches and brakes.
Final Drives TypeDouble-sealed, double-reduction, planetary final drives mounted independent of the track frame and dozer push frame for isolation from shock loads.
Total Ratio41.2
Maximum Drawbar Pull123000 lb.
Drawbar Pull at 1.2 mph59000 lb.
Drawbar Pull at 2.0 mph35000 lb.
BrakesDecelerator/brake pedal; automatic power management with manual override for matching ground speed.
Service Brakes TypeHydrostatic (dynamic) braking stops machine when the direction/steering control lever is moved to neutral or the decelerator is depressed to the end of travel.
Parking Brakes TypeExclusive safety feature engages wet, multiple-disc brakes whenever the engine stops, whenever the decelerator is depressed to the end of travel, or whenever the park lock lever is placed in the start or neutral positions and motion is detected; machine cannot be driven with brake applied, reducing wear-out or need for adjustment; spring-applied, hydraulic release.
