Dozer delivers precise grading
performance
John Deere's new 700K SmartGrade crawler dozer
helps make the job easier with the Topcon 3D-MC
Grade Control System. The system is fully integrated to
ensure precise grading performance and eliminate vul-
nerable masts and cables. SmartGrade saves operators
time by getting rid of the need to install the equipment
