Work in Any Weather

  • Contractors and governmental agencies can specifically benefit from using the 444 G-Tier Loader for snow-removal tasks. Snow tires, couplers, beacons, and third-function hydraulics are available from the factory to equip your machine to handle the white stuff.

High-Lift Configuration

  • For extra reach when loading trucks, hoppers, or feed mixers, adding High-Lift linkage provides an extra 17 inches of hinge-pin height over standard linkage.

Rugged and Reliable

  • Powered by the reliable John Deere 4.5L engine found in our 444 P-Tier Loader, the 444 G-Tier uses components similar to those featured in both our current and previous series loaders for decades.

  • Rugged powertrain with newly updated transmission, limited slip differentials, and hydraulic and electrical systems are the result of thousands of hours of experience on a wide range of jobsites.

  • Auto-idle and auto shutdown reduce engine speed or turn it off after a period of inactivity to save fuel and warranty hours.

  • The John Deere 444 G-Tier Wheel Loader was designed to deliver a low-cost solution while providing the type of performance you’re accustomed to with the 444 P-Tier model. 

Operator Station

  • Comfortable and spacious cab features ergonomically placed joystick controls, foot pedals, sealed-switch module (SSM), and adjustable five-inch monitor that displays vital machine data as well as the view from the rearview camera.*

  • Common controls will be familiar to both novice and skilled operators. In-cab adjustable boom-height kickout, return to carry, and return to dig can be easily activated from the SSM, boosting productivity in repetitive applications.

*Rearview camera standard for EPA Final Tier 4/EU Stage V; optional for EPA Tier 3/EU Stage IIIA.

Couplers, Buckets, and Attachments

  • Equip your John Deere 444 G-Tier Loader with a Hi-Vis/ISO- or JRB-style coupler, which accepts L- and K-Series as well as G-, P-, and X-Tier buckets and other attachments, to maximize machine utilization and versatility.
