Decisions, decisions

John Deere has revolutionized motor graders with its new G-Series, offering users a choice of console-mounted, industry-standard controls or armrest-mounted, industry-standard fingertip controls, as well as features like cross-slope control, automatic differential lock and a rearview camera.
Deere is introducing six G-Series models, ranging from 185 to 275 net hp, each engineered for increased productivity, reliability, durability, serviceability and low daily operating costs. With the controls, operators can choose from the console-mounted, low-effort industry-standard control pattern or intuitive and easy-to-use armrest-mounted, industry-standard fingertip controls. If operators specify the fingertip controls, they will still have a choice between using lever steering or the ever-present steering wheel. Either way, G-Series controls provide a smooth, predictable response and plenty of power whether the application calls for heavy blading or fine grading.
