Available now in Jefferson, Ohio, this 2014 John Deere 700K LGP dozer for sale has approximately 8,400 hours, 30-inch LGP pads, seller-reported 80% undercarriage, heat and air conditioning, and a configuration the seller describes as fully set up for logging. The asking price is $98,500, and the seller is ready to sell and encourages serious buyers to make an offer.
For forestry contractors, logging operations, land-clearing companies, and buyers looking for a substantial low-ground-pressure crawler dozer, this 700K LGP deserves consideration.
Forestry-Equipped John Deere 700K LGP
The seller reports that this machine is fully configured for logging applications and that only approximately the last 1,000 operating hours have been spent logging.
That history may be important to buyers comparing used forestry dozers that have spent their entire working lives in demanding timber applications. The exact forestry guarding, screens, sweeps, winch equipment, rear attachments, or other logging components installed on this particular machine should be confirmed with the seller before purchase.
The LGP configuration is particularly useful where additional flotation is important. John Deere designed the 700K LGP around wider tracks, with published specifications showing 30-inch grouser shoes and substantially more ground-contact area than the narrower XLT configuration.
For forestry work, clearing, soft soil, utility projects, grading, access-road construction, and similar applications, that wider track system can be an important advantage.
30-Inch LGP Pads and 80% Undercarriage
One of the strongest seller-reported condition details is the undercarriage.
The seller estimates the undercarriage at approximately 80%, while the machine is equipped with 30-inch pads.
Undercarriage condition represents a major ownership-cost consideration on any used crawler dozer, particularly a machine being purchased for commercial logging or earthmoving work. Buyers should independently inspect rails, pins, bushings, rollers, idlers, sprockets, track shoes, and related components to confirm current condition and remaining service life.
John Deere manufacturer information for the 700K LGP lists a 78-inch track gauge, 30-inch grouser width, seven track rollers per side, and approximately 102 inches of track on the ground.
Approximately 8,400 Hours
This 700K shows approximately 8,400 operating hours.
The seller describes the machine as a very nice dozer and reports that only the most recent approximately 1,000 hours were accumulated in logging use.
No engine rebuild, transmission replacement, hydraulic rebuild, final-drive replacement, or other major component work was reported with the information supplied, so buyers should not assume that major components have been replaced.
An independent mechanical and undercarriage inspection is recommended for any commercial machine of this age and hour range.
John Deere PowerTech Diesel Power
Depending on the exact serial-number configuration, published John Deere specifications for the Interim Tier 4 version of the 700K LGP list a 6.8-liter John Deere PowerTech 6068 turbocharged diesel engine producing approximately 125 SAE net horsepower at 1,800 rpm.
John Deere paired the engine with an automatic dual-path hydrostatic drivetrain designed to automatically adjust power and speed as working loads change.
The hydrostatic system also provides independent track control, counter-rotation capability, and infinitely variable travel speed, all valuable features when maneuvering around timber, working along access roads, grading landings, or positioning the machine in confined areas.
Seller Reports No DEF
The seller specifically reports that this 2014 John Deere 700K does not use DEF.
John Deere published an Interim Tier 4 version of the 700K that used exhaust gas recirculation, a diesel particulate filter, and diesel oxidation catalyst rather than the later Final Tier 4 SCR configuration.
Because 700K production eventually included Final Tier 4 machines, the machine's serial number should be checked to confirm the exact factory emissions configuration before purchase.
No emissions-system modification or deletion has been reported by the seller.
Cab With Heat and Air Conditioning
This dozer is equipped with an enclosed operator environment with heat and air conditioning.
For a machine intended for year-round commercial use, climate control can make a substantial difference during long shifts in summer heat, winter timber work, dusty clearing conditions, and changing weather.
John Deere designed the K-Series operator station with hydrostatic joystick controls and a cab-forward layout intended to provide good visibility around the blade and working area.
LGP Capability for Logging and Land Clearing
The 700K LGP falls into a useful size class for contractors who need considerably more pushing and grading ability than a small dozer while avoiding the transport and operating requirements of larger production crawlers.
Potential applications include:

Commercial logging
Timber access-road construction
Land clearing
Forestry property maintenance
Skid-road maintenance
Site preparation
Grading
Farm and land improvement
Drainage and ditch work
Utility right-of-way clearing
Reclamation work
General earthmoving

Actual suitability will depend on terrain, attachments, soil conditions, timber size, transport requirements, and the exact configuration of this machine.
Manufacturer-Published 700K LGP Size
John Deere literature for the Interim Tier 4 700K LGP configuration lists a base operating weight of approximately 31,240 pounds before certain optional components.
A forestry-equipped machine can weigh more depending on guarding, sweeps, winch equipment, screens, counterweights, rear equipment, and other additions.
Published specifications also list an approximately 75-gallon fuel tank and a standard LGP PAT blade measuring approximately 132 inches wide. Buyers should verify the actual blade and forestry equipment installed on this unit rather than assuming every factory specification applies.
