Features

Articulation Plus™ Steering

Rear left view of a 244 P-Tier compact wheel loader handling dirt with Articulation Plus™ steering in action

Articulation Plus™ Steering combines 30 degrees of standard articulation with 10 degrees of rear-wheel steering for improved maneuverability and tighter turns. This exclusive feature leads to a considerably higher full turn tipping load without excessive articulation, making it ideal for tighter job sites.

Ergonomic Operator Cab

Enhanced Operator Comfort

The spacious cab offers comfort with its adjustable high-back air suspension seat, optimal air conditioning, and ergonomic controls. The adjustable steering column, coupled with low-effort controls, ensures operator comfort even during long shifts. Ample storage and improved visibility enhance the all-day operator experience.

Increase Your Machine's Versatility with a Wide Array of Attachments
