Features

Move More Material With Increased Capacity

A large yellow front-end loader scoops and lifts gravel from a steep pile in a quarry

With ~300+ horsepower class performance and larger bucket capacity than core mid‑size loaders, the 744 P‑Tier is built to handle higher volumes in aggregate, truck loading, and site prep operations.

Hit Load Targets with SmartWeigh™

Close-up view of a large yellow front-end loader parked at a quarry, positioned beside a tall mound of gravel

Integrated SmartWeigh™ payload weighing enables operators to accurately measure loads in real time, ensuring consistent truck loading, reducing over/under loading, and improving cycle efficiency.

Maximize Efficiency in High‑Production Work

A large yellow front-end loader is positioned at the base of a tall gravel pile in a quarry, with its bucket partially buried in the mound

Optimized hydraulics, machine balance, and bucket performance help improve material retention and faster cycle times, allowing operators to move more tons per hour.
