The John Deere walking tractor was brought to market after a decade of development and thousands of hours of prototype trials.
The walking tractor has almost unlimited heavy equipment applications with its ability to move in all directions and turn on the spot, making the John Deere walking tractor the ideal machine for very confined spaces.
The John Deere walking tractor adapts automatically to the terrain to keep the operator cab nearly level on uneven ground. The walking tractor responds to sensory input to distribute its weight evenly by finding a base of support for each of its six legs. This results in optimal weight distribution and incredible stability.
Operators of the John Deere walking tractor can adjust both the ground clearance of the tractor and the height of each step to ensure the exact positioning of each foot, and with its ability to step over obstacles such as rock and legs the walking tractor is able to perform in challenging mountainous and forested terrain
