John Deere 770 Attachments
The John Deere 770 compact utility tractor was designed as a versatile workhorse for small farms, estates, and landscaping applications, and its value was greatly enhanced by the wide range of attachments available. Equipped with a Category I three-point hitch and rear PTO, the 770 could handle mowing, digging, grading, lifting, and snow removal with ease. Popular implements included the Deere 70 front loader for material handling, the Deere 7 backhoe for digging and trenching, and the 60-inch Deere 160 mid-mount mower deck for finish mowing.
