Wheel Loaders

John Deere 544 P-Tier Wheel Loader

The 544 P-Tier wheel loader supplies 123 kW (166 hp) at 1,700 rpm with an articulated, four-wheel-drive chassis for stockpile work, truck loading and material movement. Factory bucket options span 2.5–5.25 cu yd, with separate Z-bar and high-lift configurations for different reach and loading requirements. Its PowerShift transmission and variable-displacement hydraulic system coordinate travel and loader functions. The detailed reference geometry uses the Z-bar pin-on bucket configuration identified in the manufacturer sheet.
