Tile Smasher
Correction
Gehl and Manitou have introduced the
vertical-lift V400 Skid Loader into Australia
–
what it calls the largest skid loader in the
world.
The V400 has a rated operating capacity
of 1814kg and a true vertical lift height
of 3647mm. According to Sean Bifani,
product manager, the V400 is a true
vertical lift machine, which means the lift
path follows a vertical line as opposed to
an ‘s’ shaped path offered by competitive
vertical-lift models.
“
The V400 fulfills the market’s demand
for a high capacity skid loader. Paired with
its high lifting height, the V400 enters
the high-end of the skid loader market,
where product options are minimal. The
V400 provides maximum capacity and
the industry’s largest breakout force at
4150
kg,” Sean said.
The V400 comes with a Cummins diesel
engine providing 442Nm of torque and 99
gross horsepower (74kW). The hydraulic
fan with swing-out cooler reduces fuel
consumption and noise levels, and provides
improved service access. All maintenance
and service can be performed through the
large rear engine hood, Sean said.
Largest skid loader now in Australia
The V400 is a true vertical lift machine, which
means the lift path follows a vertical line
“
High system pressure, with standard
high-flow of up to 154L/min (40.8gpm),
is designed to handle virtually every
high performance attachment. Standard
Hydraglide ride control allows the lift
arm to ‘float’ when transporting loads,
minimising loss of material and offering
increased operator comfort.”
