John Deere 524k Compact Loader User Manual


 
Four steel plates support the loader tower, extending pin
life and protecting the boom-cylinder hoses.
Sealed-switch module keeps out dust, moisture, and
debris, and virtually never wears out. Proven marine-grade
touchpad eliminates rocker switches and nearly 100 wires,
and unsealed connections provide even longer life.
Standard features such as bypass-start protection,
automatic park brake, convenient handholds, and slip-
resistant steps help keep the operator out of harm’s way.
Wet-sleeve engine liners provide uniform engine cooling
for less oil breakdown and longer durability than cast-in-
block designs.
500-, 2,000-, and 4,000-hour engine, transmission, and
hydraulic oil and Ɵlter service intervals mean more uptime.
Wide-mouth fuel tank allows quick and convenient ground-
level Ɵll-ups. Generous capacity lets you work longer.
Electrical-distribution center employs highly reliable
circuit-board technology and solid-state switches that
eliminate numerous wiring harnesses, fuses, relays, and
connectors. Sealed gold-pin electrical connectors resist
corrosion for superior long-term integrity.
Ever have an operator burn up a starter motor attempting
to Ɵre-up a machine that was out of fuel? Standard starter
protection limits cranking time and requires cool-down
periods between attempts.

conditioner condenser, intercooler, and
hydraulic, transmission, and optional axle
coolers in a unique boxed conƟguration
that’s isolated from engine heat. For
increased efƟciency and durability.
3. Optional programmable fan auto-
matically reverses at predetermined
intervals, ejecting debris from the
radiator and cooler cores. Or choose
your own cleaning cycles through the
monitor.
