John Deere K-Series Wheel Loaders

Deere's K-Series wheel loaders ranging from 2 to 8 cubic yards come with several cab improvements, a new utility-sized loader, and Tier III engines in the largest models. They feature “industry firsts” such as the only wheel loaders with a multi-function LCD monitor, keyless-start, standard auto-shutdown, and lock-up torque converter across a broad range of machines, John Deere says. Joystick steering is now available in the 544K through 844K. An embedded payload weighing scale is powered by Loadrite. Estimated list price: $125,000 to $500,000.
