Mechanical Front Wheel Drive (MFWD) front axle
Overview

Mechanical Front Wheel Drive (MFWD) with limited slip differential.  The main MFWD on/off control is mounted on the RH console.

  • Limited slip front axle delivers 65% of available power to the tire with the best traction for true all-wheel-drive pulling power.
  • Completely sealed axle has no breathers to maintain or service, promoting reliability (axle breathers can be susceptible to water and/or dirt intrusion).
  • The machine will automatically disable the MFWD in 4th gear to reduce tire wear.
  • Extend tire tread life with Momentary MFWD for ‘on the fly’ activation.  Controlled with a touch of a button on the loader lever.   Great for engaging a pile or briefly powering through sticky or slippery terrain.

310 P-tier backhoe
310 P-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 P is configured with a single gear pump (28 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.
