Advantages and What They Mean in Practice

• John Deere Diesel: The engine is built and supported by John Deere, simplifying parts sourcing and technical support. Contractors appreciate consistent cold starts, strong torque delivery, and fuel efficiency that keeps operating costs predictable. Having power and support from the same brand also streamlines maintenance planning and long-term ownership.
• Heated & Air Conditioned Cab: A comfortable operator is a productive operator. The enclosed, climate-controlled cab protects against dust, rain, and harsh temperatures, helping crews stay on schedule through seasons and weather swings. Better comfort supports better attention and smoother control inputs, which can improve finish quality and reduce fatigue-related errors.
• 4WD: Jobsite traction matters. Four-wheel drive helps the 310L maintain forward progress in mud, on aggregate, and through uneven ground, reducing the need for tow-outs and the downtime that goes with them. Improved traction also supports controlled loader work on slopes and tighter sites, where precise maneuvering is critical.
• Moderate Hours: With 2,875 hours, this 2016 unit has been exercised enough to prove reliability without being overworked. That balance is attractive to owners who want a trustworthy backhoe with solid remaining life for trenching, utility runs, footings, backfilling, and material handling.
• Brand Reputation: John Deere’s dealer network and parts ecosystem are among the strongest in the industry. From filters and fluids to wear parts, support is widely available, which helps keep service intervals predictable and minimizes downtime.

Applications

• Underground Utilities: Open and backfill trenches for water, sewer, electric, and telecom with a stable platform and smooth control response.
• Site Preparation: Excavate for footings, pads, and drainage, then switch to loading and backfilling tasks to keep the project moving without swapping machines.
• Roadwork and Municipal: Tackle roadside repairs, culvert work, and patch prep with reliable traction and cab comfort for full-shift productivity.
• Landscaping and Residential: Shape grades, set small vaults, manage spoil piles, and handle materials efficiently on compact or developed lots.
• Farm and Ranch: Support maintenance tasks, dig lines for water and conduit, and handle general property improvements with a versatile, mid-size backhoe.
• Rental Fleet: The 310L’s straightforward operation and broad brand familiarity make it renter-friendly, with features that appeal to a wide range of users.

Ownership Value
