It's a stationary feature tour, not a running or loading demonstration, best suited for buyers wanting a quick rundown of specs and controls before visiting a dealership.
Posted by Alliance Tractor LLC, a John Deere dealership channel, so this is a sales-oriented walkaround rather than an independent review.
Pull the quick lynch pins on the back side of the loader, then hydraulically change buckets and attachments out very quick and easy.
It has a hi-lo range shifter, a four-speed gear shifter, and a left-hand reverser that lets you run full reverse while operating the loader joystick.
Factory headlights, road flashers, red road lights, a ROPS protection system that folds down for storage, and a slow moving vehicle sign.
The quick attach implement carrier lets you switch between a bucket, pallet forks, or a grapple, useful for cleaning brushy or wooded ground.
