Need a compact loader to get big results? Choose the 324J. This versatile 54-kW

(73 hp) machine combines outstanding maneuverability, travel speed, breakout force, reach, and stability in an innovative package. Its oscillating stereo steering delivers a turning radius that’s 20-percent tighter than comparable loaders for fast work cycles. Delivers smooth moves and better material retention over rough terrain, too. Add to that a redesigned, more spacious cab, and extra uptime from sealed electrical connections, more durable axles, and extended service intervals, and you’ve got a multi-purpose machine that’s ready, able, and willing to take on your many tasks.

Unique stereo steering makes this compact loader even more productive, for tight turns and extra agility in close quarters.

100-percent manual differential lock helps you dig down deep for more power.

Comes with standard items others call options — return to dig, quick-coupler, high travel-speed range, and 1.1-m 3 (1.4-cu. yd.) bucket.

EPA Interim Tier 4/EU Stage IIIB emissions-certified five-cylinder turbocharged John Deere diesel delivers power without compromise.

Extended service intervals help maximize uptime.

Give crowded conditions the runaround.

When the going gets rough, get your hands on a 324J and get going. Unlike other machines that are frequently forced into three-point turns (or worse), this nimble loader’s stereo steering allows a tight 3.78-m (149 in.) turn radius for unsurpassed maneuverability. Delivers higher tipping load capacities, too. What’s more, the hydrostatic drivetrain’s infinitely variable range lets you precisely match travel speed to the work at hand. So you can inch ahead while maintaining full hydraulic power.

Or max out at a quick 30 km/h (19 mph). The 324J lets you move more materials, more quickly, and more efficiently. Without running you ragged.

1. Boom float allows easy backdragging for finish grading and cleaning up jobsites.

2. The 324J’s unique design turns tight but articulates less, keeping the center of gravity and ballast in line to counteract load forces — for superior full-turn tipping load capacity.

3. An oscillating rear axle and elastic articulation at the pivot smoothes the ride for greater material retention and reduced operator fatigue.

4. 324J’s long reach lets it easily dump to the center of tandem-axle trucks for quicker and easier loading.

5. Manual low-speed differential lock delivers the traction needed to go deeper into the pile for bigger bucket loads.

Unlike comparable-size machines, return-to-dig is standard on the 324J.

Oscillating stereo steering combines machine articulation and rear-axle steering, giving the 324J the tightest turn radius in its class.

405/70R20 tires on one-piece rims deliver the traction and stability you need.

Efficient interior provides plenty of room for productivity.

When operation is easy, maximum productivity becomes second nature. The 324J’s spacious sound-suppressed cab provides ample leg- and headroom, best-in-class all-around visibility, and one smooth ride. A single lever with FNR switch controls all boom and bucket functions, and standard return-to-dig is just a flick-of-the-wrist away. Gauges in the forward console are clearly visible, intuitive, and easy to read.

Tilt steering, multi-adjustable high-back suspension seat, electronic monitor, and many more productivity-boosting features also are standard.

1. Walk-through cab lets you enter or exit easily from either side.

2. Boom and bucket control, FNR, and differential lock are on the same low-effort lever for convenient single-handed control.

Inching/brake pedal lets you slow travel speed while keeping engine rpm high for optimum hydraulic response and control.

Interior and exterior convex mirrors further enhance the 324J’s best-inclass visibility.

3. Easy-to-read monitor tracks rpm, time, hours, engine oil pressure, and more. Issues both visible and audible warnings.

Add a highly efficient HVAC system and make your operator even more productive. Automotive-type louvers help keep the view clear, the cab comfortable.

4. Low- and high-speed ranges provide infinitely variable travel speeds from standstill to a best- in-class 30 km/h (19 mph).

5. Oscillating axle/elastic articulation reduces cab tilt by as much as 50 percent for a smoother ride that’s easier on both machine and operator.

Built to handle the toughest jobs – yours.

The hard-working 324J increases uptime with its everyday toughness, and helps improve your bottom line with its never-saydie durability. Incorporating many of the same features found on our larger loaders, it’s built to keep downtime down with sealed electrical connectors, flat-face O-ring seal hydraulic couplings, and self-adjusting wet-disc brakes. Helps keep your operator out of harm’s way, too, with numerous safety features such as an automatic park brake, bypass-start protection, slip-resistant steps, and convenient handholds. If it’s uptime you demand, the 324J provides all you and your operator need to stay productive.

Wet-disc brakes in the heavy-duty axles self-adjust and are sealed from moisture and contaminants for long, trouble-free life.

Proportional fan runs only as needed to provide optimal cooling for reduced wear-and-tear on cooling components, reduced noise, and lower fuel consumption.

Turbocharged Deere PowerTech™ diesel runs quiet and meets IT4/

Stage IIIB non-road emissions regulations. So it can work where rigid sound- and air-quality regulations exist.

Test ports enable technicians to quickly troubleshoot problems.

1. Steering linkage is positioned where it’s protected and supported by brackets with easily replaceable wear strips.

2. Angled self-cleaning steps and ergonomically positioned grab bars make getting in and out of the cab easier.

3. A/C condenser tilts out and away from the radiator for easier clean- out. Doesn’t require draining fluids or disconnecting hoses.

4. Articulation joints and major structures are so strong and durable, they’re covered by a three-year/10,000-hour

StructurAll™ warranty.

* This guide, representing bucket sizes not necessarily manufactured by

Deere, will help you in selecting proper bucket size for material density, loader configuration, and operating conditions. Optimum bucket size is determined after adding or subtracting all tipping load changes due to optional equipment. The “conservative load” line on this guide is recommended when operating in conditions such as soft ground and unlevel surfaces. The “maximum load” condition on this guide is sometimes utilized when operating on firm ground and level surfaces.
