John Deere Construction & Forestry - 244K-II Compact Wheel Loaders

Need a compact loader to get big results? Step up to the heavy-lifting 244K-II. These versatile machines combine outstanding maneuverability, travel speed, breakout force, reach, and stability to tackle tasks other machines can't. Oscillating stereo delivers a smooth turning radius that's up to 17-percent tighter than comparable loaders – for faster cycle times and better material retention over rough terrain. Add spacious cabs and improved uptime from sealed electrical connections, more durable axles, and extended service intervals, and you've got multipurpose machines that are ready, able, and willing to take on whatever work you've got.
