2025 JD 17P Compact Excavator W/ THUMB & moveable tracks (fits in backyard)- 1755

Whether you’re a contractor taking on tight residential jobs or a property owner needing serious digging power in compact spaces, the John Deere 17P Compact Excavator delivers industry-grade performance in a backyard-friendly package.

This machine is equipped with hydraulic thumb control for effortless material grabbing, lifting, and sorting — making it perfect for landscaping, utility trenching, light demolition, and more. Its adjustable track width allows you to glide through narrow gates and access restricted areas, then expand the tracks for added stability when digging.

With an ultra-compact footprint, intuitive controls, and trusted John Deere reliability, this 17P is designed to get into the spaces where bigger machines can’t — without sacrificing power or durability.

Key Features

• Hydraulic Thumb – Pick, place, sort, and grab materials with ease
• Moveable/Expandable Tracks – Narrow down to access gates, widen out for stability
• Compact Frame – Fits through most backyard gates (under 40” clearance needed)
• Easy-to-Use Controls – Perfect for rental, residential, or professional use
• Built for Tight Jobsites – Ideal for landscaping, trenching, light construction

Why It Stands Out

• Designed for residential job sites and urban access
• Perfect fit for rental fleets, general contractors, and DIY projects
• Proven John Deere quality with minimal operating costs
• Fits easily on a standard 7K or 10K trailer

This 2025 model is one of the most versatile in the compact lineup. Don’t let size fool you — it brings big productivity to small spaces.

Ready to get the job done right — anywhere you need it.
