John Deere has added the small frame CT315 to its compact track loader line. This 45-hp unit already meets interim Tier 4 emissions standards and is Deere’s first radial lift compact track loader, as well as its smallest, with a 12.6-inch-wide track and a narrow overall machine width of just over 60 inches.
The CT315 features a 1,500-pound rated operating capacity and cushioned bucket and lift cylinders for smooth deceleration at the end of the boom-lower position as well as cushioning of the bucket when curling and dumping a load. Designed with a 360-degree view, uninterrupted to the sides, both above and below the lift arms, operators can see the tracks and the ground around the machine with the boom in the resting position. Plus, a low-sloped rear hood allows unmatched rear visibility (rare for a radial lift-style machine) as there are no tall rear towers to block key sight lines necessary while operating in reverse.
Under the hood, a Deere PowerTech 4024T four-cylinder 2.4-L engine provides superior engine lugging capability while working heavy loads.
