ASV, a Yanmar Compact Equipment brand offering all-purpose and all-season compact track loaders and skid steers, has introduced the VT-75 Posi-Track compact track loader.
Powered by a Yanmar engine, the vertical-lift, 74.3-horsepower machine excels in at-height work, loading trucks and many other tasks in construction and landscaping applications, according to the company.
“The VT-75 truly allows our ASV customers to do more,” says Peter Ovrebo, product management director for North America for Grand Rapids, Minnesota-based Yanmar Compact Equipment North America. “It fits right into the heart of the construction market where operators can make the best use of it. With the combination of its high rated operating capacity, loading capabilities, reliable Yanmar engine and ASV performance, it’s a valuable asset for operations big and small.”
The 8,310-pound compact track loader’s Yanmar Tier 4 Final diesel engine boasts high-performance hydraulics and direct-drive pumps that transmit more power and flow directly to the attachment, according to the company. An efficient hydraulic and cooling system allows the machine to operate at 100 percent load from minus-40 F to 118 F ambient temperatures.
A 10-foot, 5-inch lift height combined with a 2,300-pound rated operating capacity and 6,571-pound tipping load makes it easy to load over the side of high dump trucks, and a Posi-Track rubber track undercarriage provides operators with year-round traction and mobility, the company says.
