Understanding the Lineup
Two Dozers, One Choice
Both DEVELON dozers share the same 6-way variable-angle pitch blade, 2D/3D grading technology and a choice of XL or low-ground-pressure (LGP) tracks — they differ in size, power and blade capacity. Here's how to read the lineup before you compare specs.
DD100 · Versatile Mid-Size
115.3 hp · ~23,300 lb · 3.0–3.8 yd³
A nimble, trailerable dozer for fine grading and everyday earthmoving on residential, light-commercial and road-construction sites. Meets Tier 4 emissions without a DPF for simpler maintenance.
DD130 · More Production
146.1 hp · ~31,000 lb · 4.6–5.5 yd³
A bigger Perkins-powered dozer for heavier production dozing, with standard 2D grade control and standard oscillating serrated tracks for smoother grading and a better ride.
XL vs LGP Tracks XL is the standard track setup for firm ground; LGP (low ground pressure) uses wider shoes that cut PSI for soft clay, sand and sensitive soils — less compaction and better flotation.
2D & 3D Grade Control 2D automatically holds blade angle and elevation; 3D adds GPS guidance to match a design file — cutting manual inputs by up to 80% and reducing rework.
6-Way VAPP Blade A power blade that raises, lowers, angles, tilts and pitches from the seat for precision grading from nearly any angle, with blade float and shake.
Ripper An optional ripper (single- or multi-shank) breaks hardpan, frost and rock — letting one machine doze and rip without bringing in a second unit.
How to Choose
Match the Dozer to the Job
Two questions size a dozer: how much material you move (power, weight and blade capacity) and what ground you work on (XL for firm ground, LGP for soft, sensitive soil). Then add a ripper if you hit hardpan or rock, and 2D/3D grade control for precision finish work.
| What to Match | DD100 | DD130 |
|---|---|---|
| Rated Power (net) | 115.3 hp | 146.1 hp |
| Operating Weight | ~23,300 lb | ~31,000 lb |
| Blade Capacity (XL / LGP) | 3.0 / 3.8 yd³ | 4.6 / 5.5 yd³ |
| Blade Width (XL / LGP) | 110" / 125" | 122" / 144" |
| 2D Grade Control | Optional | Standard |
| Oscillating Serrated Tracks | Optional | Standard |
| Emissions | Tier 4 · non-DPF | Tier 4 · DOC/SCR/DPF |
Fine grading & everyday earthmoving — trailerable, simpler non-DPF engine
→ DD100
Heavier production dozing & bigger pushes — more power, weight and blade
→ DD130
Soft, sensitive or wet ground — minimize compaction and sink
→ LGP tracks
Precision finish grading with less operator effort
→ 2D / 3D grade control
Rule of thumb: size the machine to your typical push and material, pick XL for firm ground or LGP for soft soil, and add the ripper and 2D/3D grade control to match your jobs. Not sure which fits? Tell us your application and we'll spec it.

Develon Dozers
Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question about buying, financing, or renting a Develon dozer? Find answers below or reach out to your nearest Carleton Equipment location.
What is a dozer and what are its primary uses?
A dozer is a common type of construction equipment. Primary uses include pushing, grading, and leveling material across a wide range of applications — earthmoving, site preparation, road construction, and landfill operations. Most dozers feature a tracked undercarriage for better traction and weight distribution over uneven terrain, with a blade that can be angled for precise work.
What Develon dozer models does Carleton Equipment carry?
Carleton Equipment carries the Develon DD100 and DD130 dozers, available in both standard XL and LGP (low ground pressure) configurations. See the models listed above for current inventory, or submit a quote request for availability and pricing at your nearest location.
What is the difference between the XL and LGP dozer configurations?
The XL configuration is the standard track setup for firm ground applications. The LGP (low ground pressure) configuration uses a wider track system that reduces the PSI applied to the ground — minimizing soil compaction and improving machine mobility in soft terrain. This reduces the need for extensive site repairs after the work is done. Both configurations are available for the DD100 and DD130.
What's the difference between the DD100 and DD130?
The DD130 is the larger model with more horsepower, greater operating weight, a larger blade, and more overall blade capacity. It also features standard oscillating serrated tracks for improved grading and ride comfort. The DD100 offers a Tier 4-compliant engine that meets emissions standards without a diesel particulate filter (DPF), simplifying maintenance. See both models above for full spec comparisons, or request a quote for guidance on the right fit.
How do I choose the right dozer for my grading and earthmoving needs?
Consider your application and job site conditions. For soft ground, the LGP configuration limits ground pressure. For precision grading, the optional 2D grading system greatly reduces operator workload and helps less experienced operators produce accurate results — and can be upgraded to 3D machine guidance for GPS-level accuracy. The blade shake feature helps all skill levels clear material buildup efficiently. Our team at Carleton Equipment can help match the right model and configuration to your needs — submit a quote request or contact your nearest location.
What is the 2D blade assist on Develon dozers?
The optional 2D blade assist system automatically maintains blade angle and elevation based on grade targets, significantly reducing the number of manual corrections an operator makes on each pass. It can be upgraded to full 3D machine control for GPS-guided precision — cutting manual inputs by up to 80% and dramatically reducing rework on finish grading work.

What are the safety features on Develon dozers?
Develon dozers include a standard rearview camera for enhanced job site visibility and safety. Before operating, always conduct a pre-operation inspection, note any needed repairs, and wear the seat belt at all times. Assess ground conditions and identify potential hazards before beginning work. Develon recommends operator training for anyone new to dozer operation.
What are the maintenance requirements for a Develon dozer?
Regular maintenance includes checking and filling fluids, changing filters, cleaning the cooling system, and greasing lubrication points. Maintain the tracked undercarriage and keep it free of dirt and debris. Keep a maintenance log documenting all inspections and repairs. Carleton Equipment's full-service shop stocks genuine Develon parts and can handle everything from routine maintenance to major repairs.
