All daily engine service checks are accomplished on the right side.
A conveniently located periodic maintenance chart helps ensure that
nothing is overlooked.

Deere Customer Personal Service (CPS) brings you access to online
parts orders and a wealth of technical information. It’s just another
way your John Deere dealer can help keep your operating costs low.

1. Replaceable half-shell bearings within the dozer push beams

provide longer component life.

2. Convenient test ports allow quick hydrostatic-drive diagnostics.

3. No need to disconnect cooling system or hydraulic hoses when

you want to tilt the cab. A built-in jack provides quick and easy
access to drivetrain components.

4. Turbocharged V-6 diesel delivers 324 hp at a slow 1,800 rpm

for enhanced longevity and optimum fuel economy. Wet-type
cylinder liners dissipate heat for reduced ring wear and oil
breakdown.

5. Sight gauges provide quick daily checks of hydraulic/trans-

mission and final-drive fluids. Monitor signals an alert should
these levels drop.

6. The 1050C’s DuraTrax

traditional oval undercarriage has only

one wear-causing forward-travel flex point. Compared to the three
flex points found on elevated sprocket undercarriages, which do
you think will last longer?

7. Bolt-on rod guides are easy to remove should cylinder repair

ever become necessary.
