Outstanding control & intelligent grading precision
The latest John Deere P-Tier Motor Graders are engineered to deliver exceptional control, grading accuracy, and productivity across road construction, infrastructure, council maintenance, and earthmoving applications. Building on decades of customer-driven innovation, the P-Tier range combines advanced automation features, intuitive electrohydraulic (EH) controls, and integrated grade-management technologies to help operators of all skill levels achieve precise, repeatable results. With configurable dual-joystick or fingertip controls, excellent machine balance, and outstanding visibility to the blade and work area, operators can work comfortably and confidently throughout the day.
Operator-focused design and simplified maintenance
P-Tier Motor Graders are designed to maximise both operator comfort and machine uptime. The modern cab features an intuitive touchscreen display, automatic climate control, ergonomic seating, and conveniently located machine-function controls to reduce fatigue during long shifts. Daily service points are grouped for easy ground-level access, while major filters and maintenance components are positioned for efficient servicing and reduced downtime. Backed by RDO Equipment’s nationwide parts, service, and technical support network, you can count on expert assistance whenever and wherever it’s needed.
Advanced grade control technology
John Deere’s suite of integrated grade-management technologies helps simplify complex grading tasks while improving accuracy and productivity. Standard Cross Slope technology automatically maintains blade slope for consistent grading results, while SmartGrade™ Ready and fully integrated SmartGrade™ systems provide scalable solutions for operators seeking higher levels of automation. Unlike traditional mast-based systems, SmartGrade uses integrated machine sensors and in-cylinder position sensing to maintain precise grade control regardless of blade pitch, articulation angle, or circle position. The result is faster completion times, reduced rework, improved material utilisation, and greater consistency across every pass.
Built for councils, contractors and civil construction
From the versatile 620 P-Tier through to the high-capacity 872 P-Tier, John Deere Motor Graders are available in both 4WD and 6WD configurations to suit a wide range of applications. Whether maintaining local roads, constructing subdivisions, supporting mining operations, or delivering major infrastructure projects, the P-Tier range offers the performance, automation, and reliability required to tackle today’s toughest grading challenges.

Features of John Deere Motor Graders
Premium Circle
Upgrade to Premium Circle (included with SmartGrade) to benefit from lower operating costs with no wear inserts to replace or maintain over the life of the machine. This option replaces the circle gearbox drive and circle with a fully sealed bearing for easier maintenance, and a 40% increase in circle torque and 15% increase in circle speed. Includes Slip Clutch.
Auto-Shift PLUS for Unmatched Control
John Deere Motor Graders present a new level of operation with the innovative Auto-Shift PLUS. This feature lets operators control the machine using only the throttle and brake, eliminating the need for manual gear selection or the inching pedal. Say goodbye to unexpected stalling and enjoy smoother operation.
Exclusive Machine-Damage Avoidance
Focused on protecting the integrity of your machinery, John Deere Motor Graders incorporate a unique system that limits blade movement to prevent damage to tires, steps, or structures, even under complex machine positions. This allows operators to concentrate on achieving the perfect grade.
Auto-Pass for Efficient Grading
John Deere pioneers a ground-breaking feature – Auto-Pass – that automates machine movements including raising, rotating, and adjusting the angle of the blade at the start and end of grading passes. All it takes is a single press of a button. Auto-Pass is available on all John Deere Grade Pro (GP) models and comes standard on all SmartGrade machines.
Industry’s First Machine Presets
Preparing the machine for transport is now push-button easy with the industry-exclusive Blade Stow feature, part of the Machine Presets. This function stows the blade and ripper, activates lights including the hazards, automatically adjusts the moldboard to a predetermined angle, and enables Auto-Shift all at once.
SmartGrade™ Motor Graders
John Deere Motor Graders rise above the competition with their SmartGrade technology. As the industry’s first, these motor graders are fully integrated and calibrated from the factory, arriving at your job site ready to work right out of the gate. The SmartGrade Motor Graders symbolise the epitome of intelligent design and operational efficiency.
