RT Series Radial Lift Track Loader


Go to the .pdf file for specifications: RT175 & RT210

A few key features of the RT175 and RT210 include:

• Yanmar Tier III naturally aspirated diesel engine with 179 ft.-lbs. of torque (242.7 Nm) of torque on the RT175 and a Yanmar Tier III turbocharged diesel engine with 206 ft.-lbs. (279.3 Nm) torque on the RT210.
• AntiStall technology provides the power to handle the largest jobs with ease.
• The industry-exclusive HydraTrac™ Automatic Track Tensioning System eliminates the need for manually tensioning the tracks on the loader before operation.
• State-of-the-art operator's cab features unsurpassed ergonomics, adjustable seat-mounted controls and superior comfort and visibility.
• The standard 5x5 drive control system offers five settings that change five parameters to suit operator preference and application requirements.
• Welded, dedicated track system enhances grading, tractive effort and provides a smoother ride.

PERFORMANCE

• Optimized radial lift boom offers enhanced strength, optimal forward reach at trailer loading and dumping heights, and more than 127.5" (3239 mm) of lift height - higher than any competitor in their respective weight classes.
• Designed from the ground up, the welded chassis aid in superior weight distribution, which further enhances stability, grading, tractive effort and provides a smoother ride.
• Flush rear door and angled rear towers provide tight rear clearance radius and excellent visibility.
• Optional rear bumper/counterweight provides additional protection and towing capability.
• Thick steel plating and heavy-duty pins and bushing strengthen the loader for extreme-duty work.
• Electronic engine control and foot throttle allow operation at partial throttle, reducing sound levels and fuel consumption.

OPERATOR'S CAB

• Cab forward design enhances the view to the bucket.
• Level II FOPS is standard equipment.
• New, side-folding restraint bars and armrests with multiple adjustments enhance operator safety and comfort.
• Fully adjustable controls mounted to a standard mechanical suspension seat or an optional air-ride seat deliver outstanding comfort and precision control by moving with the operator during operation.
• Complication gauges and cluttered dash readouts are eliminated with a customizeable, easy-to-use multi-function display that incorporates all warning/operation lights and machine configuration screens.
• Optional pressurized sealed cab enclosure with heat?AC, sound reduction material and rear-mounted air filter provide a comfortable, clean and quiet operating environment.

CONTROLS

• Electro-hydraulic joystick controls provide the ultimate in operator comfort and controllability. They are also not affected during cold weather operation.
• Hydraloc™system applies the parking brake whenever the operator raises the restraint bars, leaves the operator's seat, open the door or switches off the ignition.
• Standard, selectable 2-speed drive motors, horn and backup alarm.
• Optional speed control adds ability to tailor machine operating speeds to application, independent of engine rotation.
• Standard ISO drive pattern, optional selectable ISO and dual hand (H-pattern) controls.¦Multi-purpose LCD display provides easy readout during operation.
• Single button allows simple scrolling and selection of various display functions.
• Standard "5x5" Drive Control system offers five settings that change five parameters to suit operator preference, skill and application requirements. Adjustable settings include:
• Joystick Sensitivity
• Position Reaction
• Engine Response
• AntiStall
• Pump Swash Plate Position
• Standard adjustable proportional auxiliary hydraulics up to 22 gpm (83 L/min) with auxiliary detent allows the operator to set attachment for continuous operation.
• Optional high flow is available on both models with peak flow of 34.0 gpm (128.8 L/min) on the RT175 and 35.9 gpm (135.8 L/min) on the RT210.
• Optional HydraGlide™ system allows the lift arm to "float" when transporting loads, minimizing loss of material and providing a smoother ride at faster transport speeds.

ENGINE

• Yanmar 4TNV98 naturally aspirated Tier III liquid-cooled diesel engine produces 179 ft.-lbs. (242.7 Nm) of peak torque and 69.9 hp (52.1 kW) of power on the RT175.
• Yanmar 4TNV98 turbocharged Tier III liquid-cooled diesel engine produces 206 ft.-lbs. (279.3 Nm) and 72.0 hp (53.7 kW) pf power on the RT210.
• Two-speed drive as standard equipment, provides travel speeds over 7.5 mph (12.1 km/hr) provided by "soft-shift" drive motors.
• Automatic glow module engine intake heating system provides superior cold-weather starting.
• Engine warranty, parts and service are handled through dealership servicing in conjunction with Gehl parts and service support.

HYDRAULICS

• Higher system pressure of 3000 psi (207 bar) delivers more hydraulic muscle to power demanding attachments and deliver superior lifting and breakout forces.
• Standard and optional high-flow auxiliary hydraulics are designed to handle virtually every flow/high performance attachment.
• New cast-iron pump design delivers efficient flow at higher temperatures.
• Lift cylinders incorporate cushioning for smoother operation when lowering the lift arm.
• Electro-hydraulic controlled hydrostatic transmission with direct engine coupling provides high operating efficiency and AntiStall technology keeps the power flowing.
• Power track drive motors deliver superior pushing power.
• Auxiliary hydraulic quick couplers easily connect under pressure for fast, efficient attachment changes.

HYDRATRAC™ AUTOMATIC TRACK TENSIONING SYSTEM

• Patented Gehl HydraTrac™ Automatic Track Tensioning System eliminates the need for manually tensioning the tracks on the load before operation, saving valuable time on the jobsite.
• Increases the life of the tracks (up to 15% in tested conditions) and bearings by ensuring the proper tension immediately upon start-up and during use, and tension release when the machine is shut down
• PLEASE NOTE: Track life improvement varies greatly depending on conditions, application and upkeep; results may vary
• Tracks can be easily removed in the field without the use of pry-bar or tools by flipping a switch to reverse the system.

ATTACHMENT SYSTEM

• All-Tach® system manually engages and disengages with a single lever.
• Power-A-Tach® system allows for attachment changes electronically at the push of a button, further enhancing jobsite productivity.
• Borth systems are compatible with all universal-style track loader attachments.

LIFT ARM

• Radial lift arm design has a pin height of 127.5" (339 mm) while providing more than 34" (876 mm) of reach.
• Additional reach and increased dump height result in more efficient load placement and overall performance.
• Low-profile design provides oustanding forward, rear and side visibility.
• Simple "in-line" design increases structural integrity by eliminating the complex geometry and welding found on many competitive "offset" lift arm designs.
• Front channel support and large diameter pivot pins provide exceptional lateral strength and rigidity.
• Lift-arm incorporates dual bucket cylinders and two lift-arm stop blocks on the front of the main frame to evenly distribute digging forces.

SERVICEABILITY

• Large, gas-spring assisted engine cover and over-sized, flush-mounted rear door allows full access on the rear of the machine for servicing and maintenance.
• Lockable compartments on the rear towers open to reveal the battery on the left and hydraulic tank on the right.
• Entire ROPS/FOPS assembly tilts rearward with large gas-springs for easy internal service access.
• Track rollers and idlers are sealed and require no maintenance.
• Patented tilt-out foot pod allows for best-in-class foot well cleanout and provides perfect access to the fuel tank and other components under the cab.
• Coded wiring takes the guesswork out of electrical system identification.
