John Deere

John Deere's 110 tractor loader backhoe (TLB) features a 43-hp Yanmar diesel engine and the power and economy of direct fuel injection. The unit converts 75 percent of its net engine horsepower into hydraulic horsepower and the 110 TLB starts quickly even in cold weather. The lighter weight and shorter length of the unit makes it more maneuverable and easier to transport than larger construction units. The 110 TLB also features John Deere's LoadMatch load sensing drive system that minimizes stalling and maximizes productivity.

The ZK is powered by engines up to 37 hp. The decks are deeper, the wheels are larger and the fuel capacity is greater, making the new mower designed for sports fields. The ZK also offers the benefits of Wright's traditional Stander, such as low center of gravity for hillside stability, shorter overall length for added maneuverability and the ability for the operator to step off the spring-suspended stand-on platform in case of an emergency or to pick up debris.
