The Broken Excavator Saga - John Deere 330C L Stuck in a Pond

The 375 went down with engine troubles so we got a 330 as a replacement. 45 minutes into shift it spit the oil out of the splitter box for the pumps and died so we used the very sick 375 to pull it out of the pond.

@RehyBoiiiiiiiii hitachi deere same thing

[vantagetes]

@njaa22 Actually Deere and Hitachi are not the same machines, we've covered this many many many times in comments. Do we need to do it again?

Hmm a 75 ton machine pulling out a 30 ton. I would hope the Cat could move it. Try to move a broken Cat 5130 in -60 C temps in Diamond mine on a 8% slope.. Two D10s and a Letourneau 1400 loader is needed.... Check my posted video.. Real toys.

@welderns The 375 was so broken I wasn't sure it was going to make it out by itself! I ended up having to stick out while I was traveling so the tracks would turn, then pulling the 330 up a ways and repeating. Cool video you have although it looks like the 1400 just walked right away from those D10s!

Thing is they should have just stuck with the Hitachi/Isuzu engine as it is pretty dependable and has about the best fuel economy. The Deere engine machines do dig better but if you need to load a truck get a Hitachi out of the 2. Thing is though-how many reman'ed Deere or Hitchi's do you see out there like you do with Cats. Don't get me wrong as some Cats are crap but many are the Cats meow

@vantagetes Deere owns a large portion of Hitachi US rights. Certain Deere Exca. are just rebadged Hitachis. Deere and Hitachi excavators (120 - 350) are built in Kernersvillle, NC. Both brands of 450 and up are built in Japan along with the mini's and reduced tail swing machines.

120 - 350 have Deere engines and Deere designed cooling packages along with pump controllers optimized for the Deere torque curves. The 450 and up are paint and decal differences.

older Deere excavators 690. 790 and 990 were made by John Deere.The later models soon after those were Hitachi made with deere electronics and engines. Then Deere and Hitachi formed a North American Partnership. Hitachi made excavators for Deere and Deere made Loaders for Hitachi.The smaller excavators upto the 350D's have Deere engines in them.The larger excavators 450D to 850D have Isuzu engine in them.All the North American Hitachi Reps. acutually work for and are paid by Deere.

@RehyBoiiiiiiiii Ha HA Now that is funny. Who do you think made many of the Deere Excavators in the past? Hitachi Deere still uses there design these days and some are still just rebadged Hitachi's. Don't believe me-check out Deere's site under service and you will see they even list Hitachi construction. I know the 450D is a Hitachi, some of the smaller ones are made by Deere but still use the Hitachi design. Does Hitachi or Deere have a Reman program like Cat-NO
