310 G-tier backhoe

Overview

The open center control valve and pump combination has been used on Deere backhoes since 1997.  This field-proven system has served the product well over its lifetime, providing such benefits as high contamination tolerance, excellent swing control, open center pressure/force control, operator “feel”, and excellent multifunction performance as compared to other open center systems in the marketplace.

The 310 G includes an axial-piston pump (32.8 GPM).

• Very efficient system type for high productivity digging application.
• Continuous oil flow for cooling and filtration, even with all functions in neutral.  Cleaner, cooler oil means improved system life and less downtime.
• Inherent load feedback to the operator.  Lever position with an open center system delivers a certain force level to the cylinder.  Open center can provide a level of “feel” for experienced operators when fine metering through the cut searching for an object in the ground.
