2017 - 2023 JOHN DEERE 744J HIGH-LIFT WHEEL LOADER

The John Deere 744J High-Lift Wheel Loader features a turbocharged charge air cooled 6-cylinder 6125H engine delivering 266 hp (198 kW) at 2000 rpm with a torque rise of 40% at 1100 rpm, enabling robust performance. It has a bucket breakout force of 42,332 lbs (19,202 kg) with a heaped capacity of 4.5 cubic yards (3 m³) and a struck capacity of 3.7 cubic yards (2 m³), complemented by a 10 ft (3 m) wide bucket. The loader offers a maximum hinge pin height of 16 ft (5 m) and a dump clearance at max raise of 12.2 ft (4 m), facilitating high-lift applications. Overall dimensions include a ground clearance of 1.5 ft (0.5 m), height to top of cab at 11.6 ft (3.5 m), length with bucket on ground of 29.8 ft (9 m), width over tires 9.7 ft (3 m), and a wheelbase of 11.2 ft (3.4 m). Its hydraulic system features a variable axial piston pump with 104 gal/min (394 l/min) flow capacity, 3200 psi relief valve setting, dump time of 1.5 seconds, raise time of 6.5 seconds, and lower time of 3 seconds. The operating weight is approximately 51,985 lbs (23,580 kg), with a fuel capacity of 122 gallons (462 liters) and hydraulic fluid capacity of 38 gallons (144 liters). The transmission is an automatic powershift with 4 forward and 3 reverse gears, offering a max speed of 24.5 mph (39 kph) forward and 19.3 mph (31 kph) reverse. The machine runs on a 24 V electrical system with an 80 A alternator and uses 26.5 R25 tires, providing a turning radius of 20.2 ft (6.2 m) and rear axle oscillation of 26°. This combination makes the 744J High-Lift ideal for heavy-duty material handling in demanding environments.
