Crawler Dozers

John Deere 550 P-Tier Crawler Dozer

The 550 P-Tier is a 92 hp hydrostatic crawler dozer for earthmoving, finish grading and site preparation. Its dual-path drive controls each track independently for power turns and counter-rotation. The standard 18-in grouser / PAT reference configuration weighs 18,853 lb and carries a 105 in blade rated at 2.4 cu yd. The manufacturer publishes separate low-ground-pressure and attachment configurations, with different ground pressures, blade widths and operating weights. Grade-control packages extend the machine from manual blade operation to assisted grading.
