DEERE - 260P Back

260P ARTICULATED DUMP TRUCK

BUILT FOR THE WORK YOU DO
To design our P-Tier Articulated Dump Trucks (ADTs), we spoke with the experts equipment owners and operators just like you. Through Customer Advocate Groups, you told us exactly what you need in an ADT. We listened and responded with automatic dump control. Quiet, pressurized cab. Adaptive suspension. Onboard diagnostics that help keep operators in the know and on the go. Ground-level serviceability. And intuitive options such as onboard payload weighing, high-mounted LED lights, and tire-pressure monitoring. The new 260 P-Tier ADT is purpose-built with the productivity of your operation in mind.

FEATURES
RAISE YOUR EXPECTATIONS
At the press of a button, automatic dump control shifts the transmission to neutral, sets the service brakes, increases engine speed, and initiates dump-body raise, to automatically dump the bin, control other necessary machine functions, and eliminate repetitive cycling motions.

SMOOTH OPERATOR
Sealed and pressurized to keep out dust and noise, John Deere-designed 69-dB ultra-quiet cab helps operators stay alert and comfortable. Standard adaptive suspension system stabilizes the ride, no matter the machine cycle, empty or loaded. Fully adjustable air-ride seat makes smooth sailing out of any terrain.

ALWAYS AWARE OF WHATS THERE
Optional John Deere Advanced Vision System (AVS) increases the operators field of view to potential jobsite hazards, enhancing awareness and navigation of busy work areas. AVS includes digital cameras mounted in the front grille and on the mirror bows that display on a trio of dedicated in-cab monitors. Integrated with the ADTs articulation, mirror-bow cameras automatically pan to adjust the view.

FAR FROM THE DAILY GRIND
A Deere exclusive, all daily checks and periodic service are accessible from ground level, including refills of fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF). Service points and sample ports are color-coded to fast-track preventive maintenance and troubleshooting.

STRONG FOR THE LONG HAUL
High-alloy-steel dump body and chassis deliver exceptional strength and rigidity without adding excess weight. Heavy-duty, purpose-built axles are lubricated for longer life.

SEE THINGS LIKE NEVER BEFORE
Mirror-bow design increases visibility, reduces vibration, and enables walk-through access to the engine compartment. LED light bars on the mirror bows help guide onboard weighing. Front and rear worklights plus optional high mounted LED lights illuminate the jobsite. Stairway lights are push-button operated from inside the cab and also at ground level.

PURPOSE-BUILT BRAKING
Designed specifically for P-Tier ADTs, the transmission retarder confidently slows the machine before the service brakes are applied. Outboard wet-disc brakes in all three axles are at the ready when service brakes are needed.

THE WEIGHT OF THE MATTER
Calibrated at the factory, optional onboard weighing system displays payload weight on the in-cab monitor during loading, with real-time load and tonnage data transmitted via
JDLink. Access to accurate payload values removes the guesswork from daily production levels, increasing uptime and efficiency.

TAKE A LOAD OFF
When enabled through the monitor, the operator can limit the percentage the rear chassis is off-level when unloading. If the limit is exceeded, the dump body will not raise and a message will appear on the monitor instructing the operator to reposition the ADT.

TACKLE TOUGH TERRAIN
Inter-axle differential lock (IDL) transmits 50 percent of available torque to the forward axle and 50 percent to both rear axles, simplifying operation. Or it can be engaged on the-fly while slipping, for smoother navigation of tough jobsites.

THE SAFETY FACTOR
When the dump body is fully upright, the safety bar locks it to the main frame and disengages the hydraulics, for secure servicing. Standard rear camera with choice of display enables operator visibility to obstacles in the path of the ADT while backing up. When activated, standard auto horn automatically sounds when the ADT is started, moves forward or in reverse, or changes direction, to comply with Mine Safety and Health Administration regulations.

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. With your approval, your dealer can also remotely monitor machine health, diagnose problems, and even update machine software without a trip to the jobsite.*
* Availability varies by region and product. Options not available in every country.

AUTO DUMP AND HILL HOLD
OVERVIEW
John Deere ADTS now include auto dump and hill hold that eliminate repetitive cycling motions. Automatic dump control allows for the operator to press a button and the machine will automatically dump the bin and controls the other functions necessary.

BENEFITS
At the push of a lever, auto dump shifts the transmission to neutral, sets the service brakes, increases engine speed, and initiates body raise.

A QUIETER, PRESSURIZED CAB WITH STANDARD ADAPTIVE SUSPENSION SYSTEM
OVERVIEW
Sealed, pressurized cab helps minimize fatigue. The Deere-designed cab is pressurized to keep things quiet, helping operators stay comfortable and alert, all shift long. Standard adaptive suspension system adjusts to the jobsite, stabilizing the ride and the cab, for operator comfort no matter the machine cycle, empty or loaded.

BENEFITS
69-dB ultra-quiet Deere-designed cab
Larger entryway allows roomier entrance and exit
Fully adjustable air-ride seat makes smooth sailing out of any terrain

ADDITIONAL DETAILS
STREAMLINED MIRROR-BOW DESIGN
Mirror-bow design increases visibility, reduces vibration, and enables walkthrough access to the engine compartment. Lights on the mirrors help bring onboard weighing into clear focus.

REVERSE CAMERA
Standard reverse camera with choice of display gives the operator visibility to obstacles in the direct path of the machine while backing up.

AUTO-HORN ALERTS
When activated, standard auto horn will automatically sound when the ADT is started, moves forward or in reverse, or changes direction, to help comply with MSHA regulations.

LIGHTING THE WAY
Front and rear work lights and optional high-mounted LED lights help illuminate the site. Stairway lights are push-button operated from inside the cab to light machine exits and also from ground level when going to work in dark environments. Stairs are evenly spaced, for more surefooted passage.

IN THE KNOW AND ON THE GO WITH ONBOARD DIAGNOSTICS
OVERVIEW

STANDARD ONBOARD FEATURES TO HELP EASE OPERATION
OPERATOR SETTINGS IN THE MONITOR
OVERVIEW
There are multiple owner and operator settings for features available in the monitor. Intuitive to use and easy to adjust, these features eliminate some of the operator inputs, allowing them to focus more on moving material efficiently. The best part is that all of these features are standard on John Deere articulated dump trucks (ADT).

BENEFITS
Rollover protection - Alerts the operator to a potential unsafe dump angle and stops the dump cycle. Set at 15% from the factory this setting can also be user defined by accessing the owner setting in the monitor.
Downhill dump protection - Automatically calculates the truck position to make sure the dump body doesnt travel over-center when dumping downhill.
Auto dump brake - With auto dump brake enabled and driveline assist active, the service brakes will latch when unloading the machine.
Hill hold - When stopping on an uphill slope, the truck will automatically keep the service brakes applied while the operator moves their foot from the brake pedal to the throttle to keep the truck from rolling backward.
Frame protection - If a dump is stopped before material is shed out of the bin, the truck will cushion the bin travel back to cradle to prevent a full bin from aggressively seating onto the frame.
Shuttle shifting - The transmission may be shifted direction without the truck coming to a stop improving cycle times and eliminating operator abuse
Descent control - When activated by the operator, this setting will help automatically control the truck speed when driving down a descent through automatic use of the transmission retarder. Check decal on window for speed and gear limitations.
Dump body limits - The maximum dump height can be restricted from full dump when working around low overhead obstacles.
Transmission warm-up - At truck start up, the transmission will automatically begin a warm-up cycle. This improves not only ride and shift quality but also increases daily productivity by getting the transmission up to operating temperature quickly.
Speed limits Max speed limit can be set in the monitor to match jobsite conditions or site requirements, reducing complexity for the operator.
