Hey, y'. All, Drew Ellis here, Sunsouth, Tuscaloosa wanted to bring to you. Our new equipment line is a cnce product that we're proud to carry and proud to have and want to go over a couple things with you. This is our smallest track compact track loader. This is the 317G. Okay, so this is our 65 horsepower machine. Lots of really neat features and great, great features about this machine. Low ground pressure tracks. Four idler wheels on your tracks down there. Easy adjustments for your. For your track tension. 50 hours track tension. Everybody else calls for 10. Take these two bolts out, Ch your track tension. Put grease in there if you need to. It also has protected hoses for your final drive gears. Okay? So your hoses are protected behind there that you're not going to worry about ripping one out while you're working. Low ground pressure tracks. What you're getting is four and a half pounds per square inch on these tracks. So if you're doing any kind of landscaping in anybody's yard or somewhere where nobody wants to tear up their equipment or their place where you're working at, that's going to be a nice feature to have onto the front of the machine here you have quick attach buckets so it's push button on the inside. You don't have to get out and fight with those things if over time they'll get jammed up or rusted. It's just a push of a button. It rolls out and then you roll the bucket off of it on the inside of this machine. So deere not only is about productivity, it's about safety. Okay? So if this machine, if you're in somewhere and you get into a sketchy spot where you may have rolled sideways or got into a ditch, and you can't get your door open or your boom is up and you're trying to get out, and you can't. This has a quick knockout glass. You turn these two pieces, a handle right here, and this glass pushes out and you can get out of this machine. And same thing with the rear of it. The rear is designed to come out and you can climb out of this machine without being st trapped. Okay? So that's a big thing. Safety is always key. Air ride, seat defrosters, I mean, you name it. It's a nice comfortable cab, foot pedal, throttle as well as dial throttle on the inside. The boom breakout force on this machine is £5,000, guys. So, I mean, that's strong. And when your bucket breakout force is £4,500, there's not something you're going to run into where you're going to need to have extra power. You have it. Seven mile an hour ground speed. Okay, so our competition, the closest one that has a seven mile an hour ground speed, they have two speed transmission. So we don't need two speeds. We already have seven miles an hour for this size machine. That's plenty, plenty fast. Okay, idler wheels. So you got. I think I already hit this one time. I'm gonna touch on it again. You got dual flange idler wheels on the inside down here. So if you see that, that's gonna keep your tracks on, it's gonna keep your tracks lined up and you're gonna skip tracks less on this machine. Okay, Final drive gear, protected hoses. We touched on that. Everybody else has four or five rollers. We have four or five rollers. Everybody else has three or four onto the back. Easy access for maintenance intervals. So all your fil. Water separator, your hydraulic oil filter, your oil filter, battery box, all that stuff's right here in the back. It also has a tethered cap. You know, you don't know how important that is until you drop that cap and you can't find it and you're on a job site. Okay, down on the back of this machine here, you have a periodic maintenance chart. So if you ever get confused or if you're on the job and don't have your operator's manual, you can just refer right here and it'll tell you what you need to do that day. Okay? Check your hours and you can go from there. But guys, we're really excited to have this equipment and we're really excited to do business here in Tuscaloosa. Y' all come see us if you have any questions. Just. We'll. We'll be glad to help you in any way we can. My name is Drew Ellis again.
