Key Features & Detailed Specs
️ Full Cab with Heat & A/C
Factory-installed ROPS cab with wide-entry door and large tinted glass for excellent all-around visibility.
HVAC system offers dependable comfort in all seasons. A/C blows ice cold, and the heater keeps you warm even in the worst weather.
Pressurized cab keeps out dust and debris — great for operator health and machine longevity.
Suspension cloth seat with armrests, lumbar adjustment, and swivel gives you long-haul comfort and control.
⚙️ 6-Way PAT (Power Angle Tilt) Blade — 115” Width
Precision and versatility: The 6-way blade allows up/down, tilt (left/right), and angle (left/right) — perfect for finish grading, backfilling, cutting swales, and shaping.
115-inch (9.5-ft) width gives optimal coverage while still being highly maneuverable for tighter sites.
Blade control is smooth and responsive, powered by the dozer’s hydrostatic drive system.
️ Rear 3-Shank Ripper
Hydraulic ripper system with three heavy-duty shanks designed for breaking up compacted soil, frost, old road beds, or demolition debris.
A must-have for tough terrain, making this 550K XLT far more versatile than blade-only machines.
XLT Undercarriage w/ Max Lube™ System
XLT = Extra Long Track, which means better weight distribution, enhanced stability on slopes, and improved grading performance.
Max Lube™ sealed & lubricated track system reduces wear and tear, minimizes downtime, and extends component life.
Track system is well-maintained and in solid condition — ready for dirt, clay, rock, or frost.
Hydrostatic Transmission
Fully hydrostatic drive with dual-path control allows infinite speed adjustments, fast counter-rotation, and exceptional control in confined spaces.
Great for finish work and operator-friendly, especially when transitioning between dozing, ripping, or backdragging.
✅ Walk-Around Condition
Clean cab and operator station — no rips or damage
Blade edge and pins in good condition
Ripper shanks and cylinders clean and fully operational
Tracks and rollers in strong working order with even wear
No active codes or hydraulic leaks — this unit is work-ready
Summary
This isn’t just a dozer—it’s a fully optioned machine that delivers serious productivity. The 550K XLT is widely known for its excellent weight-to-power ratio, easy controls, and John Deere reliability, and this one is enhanced with the rear ripper, full cab, and PAT blade to give you everything you need for demanding site prep or grading work.
With only ~3,050 hours, it’s priced right and won’t last long.
