    John Deere Series II Skid Steer

    Sept. 28, 2010

    Series II skid-steer loaders boast more than 100 improvements. Five new models in the line range in operating capacities from 1,500 to 3,200 pounds. A 60–40 weight distribution provides best overall balance, with a longer wheelbase allowing the skid-steers to travel at a higher rate of speed. Major components are mounted low on the frame for a lower center of gravity. Units can be fitted with 54 Deere Worksite Pro attachments, and the Quik-Tatch coupling system is offered in a hydraulic version for quick attachment changes from the cab.
