When you choose to rent the 2026 John Deere 245P from Riverside Equipment Rentals, you’re getting one of the most capable midsize excavators available — arriving fully equipped with a quick-coupler, thumb, two buckets, swap valve, stump pan, FOG guarding, and auxiliary hydraulics ready to go. Whether you’re on a large civil project, utility corridor, pipeline job, or heavy site prep across the Fraser Valley, the 245P delivers the dig depth, breakout force, and hydraulic versatility to keep your crew productive all day.
Fully Equipped — Everything Included: Unit arrives with a hydraulic wedge-style quick-coupler, hydraulic thumb, 36″ digging bucket, 60″ clean-up bucket, auxiliary plumbing swap valve, stump pan, FOG (Falling Object Guard) guarding, and 2 additional cab-mounted LED lights — a complete attachment package ready for immediate productive use on site.
Isuzu 4.5L Final Tier 4 Engine: The proven Isuzu 4.5-litre Tier 4 Final diesel engine delivers reliable power with clean emissions compliance. Engineered for durability in continuous duty cycles, this engine provides the torque and fuel efficiency expected on demanding commercial and municipal excavation projects throughout BC.
Three Welded Bulkhead Boom Design: The 245P’s three welded bulkhead boom construction provides exceptional structural rigidity and resistance to torsional stress under heavy load. This robust design extends boom service life significantly on high-cycle applications like rock, hardpan, and heavy material handling.
3 Variable Displacement Axial-Piston Pumps: Three independent variable displacement pumps provide simultaneous, interferencefree hydraulic flow to all circuits. This allows operators to run boom, arm, bucket, swing, and travel simultaneously at full capacity — a key advantage on tight deadlines where machine hesitation costs production time.
9’7″ Arm for Extended Reach and Dig Depth: The standard 9’7″ arm delivers the reach and depth capacity needed for utility trenching, foundation work, pond and drainage construction, and slope work across varied Fraser Valley terrain — reducing the need for repositioning and keeping cycle times fast.
32″ Triple Grouser Pads: The wide 32″ triple grouser track pads provide excellent traction and flotation on soft, wet, or uneven ground conditions common to BC project sites — from riverside work to agricultural land development, pipeline right-of-way, and road building in variable terrain.
Proportional Auxiliary Hydraulics: Factory-installed proportional auxiliary hydraulic controls and lines allow precision flow adjustment for demanding attachments including hydraulic hammers, compactors, tilting couplers, augers, and mulching heads — without the performance compromise of non-proportional systems.
Short-Throw Pilot Levers: The short-throw pilot control system reduces operator input effort and range of motion, directly reducing fatigue during long-shift operation. Combined with the heated air-suspension seat and full climate control cab, the 245P sets a high standard for operator comfort across a full working day.
Full Size Deluxe Cab with Multi-Function Display: The spacious deluxe cab includes full heat and A/C, radio, high-back heated airsuspension seat, multi-function display with auto climate control, rear-view camera with in-cab monitor, LED cab lights, and a comprehensive light package — giving operators everything needed for safe, productive work in all BC weather conditions.
