DEERE 524 P-TIERMID-SIZE WHEEL LOADERS

ABOVE AND BEYOND MEET THE P-TIER WHEEL LOADERS
When your material-handling application needs a heavy-duty lift, add a P-Tier Wheel Loader to your lineup. Combining convenient front-end features with near-parallel lift, spacious operator stations including customizable ergonomic electrohydraulic (EH) controls, and streamlined electrical and hydraulic routing, these versatile and productive mid-size models are designed to help you take your operation to the next level.

PREPARE FOR PRODUCTIVITY
Integrated with the John Deere Operations Center mobile app and desktop interface, in-cab displays of auto daily fluid checks, fluid loss sensing, battery monitoring, and auto active warmup give operators the fleet health info needed to get the machine and themselves ready for a productive workday.

IT PAYS TO SAVE
John Deere PowerTech 4.5L engine delivers lower hourly operating costs and 12,000-hour preventative-maintenance expenses without loss of torque or productivity compared to our 6.8L model.

LED BEACON OPTION
Four optional new LED beacons can be added to the cab of the loader to help make bystanders more aware of the machine.

KEEP YOUR COOL
The next evolution of Quad-Cool enables the cooling system to be conveniently accessed and cleaned from ground level. All daily service points including fuel refill are conveniently grouped at ground level on the left side of the machine for easy access. Routing of electrical wire harnesses and hydraulic hoses has been streamlined.

AT THE FOREFRONT
Featuring bucket and linkage designs that improve load leveling, material retention, and visibility, P-Tier Loaders yield more productivity and performance than previous models. Enhanced-performance buckets with integrated spill guards, curved side cutters, and impressive rollback deliver elevated bucket-fill performance and material retention compared to earlier offerings. Optional new John Deere high-strength steel buckets with extended lip are made to move up to five-percent more material than previous designs.

MATERIAL MATTERS
SmartWeigh option features dynamic weighing technology that allows operators to weigh without interrupting workflow and removes the need to lower and reraise the boom after tipoff. Shared through the onboard monitor, SmartWeigh is easy to calibrate and effortlessly integrates with the John Deere Operations Center so you can track and visualize payload data from almost anywhere. Available as a factory-installed or field-kit option, you can also try SmartWeigh at a low cost for 250 machine hours.

OVERACHIEVERS ASPIRE TO GO HIGHER.
With handy front-end features and plenty of productivity-boosting enhancements over previous models, our 524 P-Tier Wheel Loader redefines expectations about the heights a utility loader can reach.

TAKE CONTROL
Operators can easily control up to six functions without letting go of the ergonomically designed joystick. Four industry-exclusive multifunction buttons can each be programmed to handle any of up to 12 functions selected through the monitor, including bucket vibrate and EH Precision mode.

HAVE A SEAT
Spacious and comfortable cab features extra legroom, an improved HVAC system, additional storage, and a more adjustable seat than earlier models.

GET CARRIED AWAY
Tool Carrier configuration enables a clear view of the coupler and forks, making it easier to quickly move pipes, logs, and pallets.

PRETTY BIG PLUS
High-Lift Plus configuration provides an additional 24 inches of hinge-pin height over standard lift height and 12 inches over the High-Lift model. All three lift heights feature near-parallel lift.

LEVEL UP
AutoLevel enables near-perfect parallelism throughout the boom-raise-and-lower cycle, letting operators set their desired attachment angle to within two degrees.

CONNECTED MACHINES
John Deere construction equipment comes with in-base connectivity free from subscriptions or annual renewals. Analyze critical machine data, track utilization, review diagnostic alerts, and more from the John Deere Operations Center. The Operations Center also enables John Deere Connected Support, which uses data from thousands of connected machines to proactively address issues before they arise. With your approval, your dealer can also remotely monitor machine health, diagnose problems, and even update machine software without a trip to the jobsite.*
