Want to boost productivity
without breaking the bank?
Consider a new 9030 Series
Scraper-Special Tractor teamed
with a John Deere Ejector or
Carry-all Scraper.
It’s the only fully integrated
tractor-scraper system on the
market and does as much or more
work as a self-propelled scraper
or truck and excavator – but at
one-third of the initial investment.
Operating costs are low too.
Unlike self-propelled units, you
don’t need a push dozer to help
load. In fact, without additional
operators and support equipment,
you can save as much as 30 to
50 cents per cubic yard.
You get added versatility, too.
Unhitch your scrapers and use
these powerful tractors to pull
disks, rippers, and other tools.
Dedicated scrapers can’t.
And now John Deere offers
an exclusive option you won’t
find anywhere else – AutoLoad.
This innovation automates the
scraper’s hydraulic-lift functions,
making it push-button easy to load
like a pro. You get consistent lifts
at the fill site and quick work
cycles that boost productivity.
Optional steel tow cable connects to the tractor
drawbar (dealer installed). It unhooks easily from the
front storage pin for quick hook-ups to the tow vehicle.
Load like a pro with award-winning AutoLoad™
The award-winning John Deere AutoLoad system makes it push-button easy for novice and experienced tractor/scraper
operators to consistently load like pros, time after time. The AutoLoad option also greatly reduces the time required for initial
operator training. You get maximum productivity from your workforce – even if operating conditions change. The result?
Consistent productivity throughout the workday and workweek. AutoLoad controls the scraper’s hydraulic-lift functions during
the load cycle. Push a button at the start of the cut. As the cut progresses, AutoLoad takes over and adjusts the blade height.
At the end of the cut, the system disengages through normal operation, providing consistently-filled scrapers time after time.

• Unmatched parts availability
• Extended service intervals
• Factory-trained service technicians
Routine maintenance is a part of owning any
tractor and John Deere makes it a quick and easy
task if you own a 9030 Series Tractor.
A new single-piece tilt hood gives you
unobstructed access to fluid-level check points,
site-gauges, and fluid fill points.
Regular service intervals are extended to save
you time and to help lower your maintenance costs.
Transparent fluid reservoirs let you quickly check
coolant and hydraulic fluid levels.
Enjoy up to a 375-hour engine oil change and oil
filter service interval with John Deere PLUS-50™ oil
and John Deere filter, or 250-hour service interval
with standard oil and filter.
Plus, a new self-priming fuel system eliminates
messy hand priming and filter pre-filling.
Whether you need a replacement filter, hydraulic
fluid, or any other part, your local John Deere dealer
has what you need to keep your new tractor running
in peak condition.
Flip-up battery cover features an air
cylinder to hold it up during periodic
inspections or annual service.
Access to common service check points
is unobstructed making daily oil and coolant
level checks quick and easy.
Fuel fills are easy. A new 350-gal.
capacity on 4-wheel-drives means you can
stop less often to fill up. Capacity on tracks
models is now 330 gal.
Annual air filter replacements are a
breeze for all 9030 Series tractors. Filters
can be conveniently reached while standing
on the ground.
Always there for you when you need us
