Yanmar announces new compact loader
Yanmar Compact Equipment announced a new compact track loader called the TL75VS. The 9,205-pound TL75VS is a construction-grade machine with a 74-hp Yanmar Tier 4 Final diesel engine and 2,555-pound rated operating capacity. The 10-foot, 6.5-inch max bucket pin height improves the TL75VS’ ability to load dirt into trucks and complete other at-height tasks. Operators can efficiently navigate the jobsite with the TL75VS’ travel speed of up to 7.5 mph.
“We’re thrilled to bring another do-it-all piece of equipment to the market,” said Peter Ovrebo, product management director — North America, Yanmar Compact Equipment North America. “The TL75VS provides operators with top-tier performance wherever it’s needed, and the reliability we’re known for ensures the machine is running on all cylinders until the job is done.”
The new machine uses a torsion axle suspended undercarriage featuring a pivot link system at the rear axle. The linkage technology uses a spring load that reduces oscillation and stabilizes the machine for improved ride quality and material retention. The TL75VS can be optioned with a 26-gpm high flow maximized by large line sizes, hydraulic coolers and direct-drive pumps for reduced power loss and increased flow and pressure directly to the attachment.
Operators can work longer in comfort with the machine’s standard mechanical suspended seat; and a state-of-the-art 7-inch touchscreen display improves convenience on the job. Premium 360-degree visibility enhances jobsite awareness and safety, which is padded by a removable roof hatch escape.
The compact track loader uses self-leveling technology and dual-direction capabilities to automatically level the load while raising and lowering loader arms. Return-to-position technology lets operators set a designated height for the loader arms. A work tool positioner enables users to select a preset for the angle of the attachment based on the job at hand. The machine shifts automatically between low- and high-speed modes for a smoother transition between the two using auto two-speed. This provides more control in spaces with limited room and applications requiring finesse, such as grading. Speed-sensitive ride control rounds out the productivity offerings. It conveniently enhances material retention at higher speeds without the need to actively switch the feature off when converting to slower-moving applications.
The TL75VS comes equipped with Yanmar’s optional SmartAssist Remote telematics. This offers a wide range of features, including error detection and notification to real-time operational status updates and daily work reports. SmartAssist strengthens security with integrated theft protection, allowing the owner to set a range from a specific location and trigger an alert if that range is exceeded.
The TL75VS comes with a 2-year/2,000-hour warranty to reflect the company’s history of reliability and quality control. The machine’s durable steel-embedded rubber-tracked undercarriage provides construction-grade dependability. Heavy-duty bar-tread tracks complement the undercarriage through improved ride quality and vibration reduction. The tracks provide year-round dependability by improving traction in extreme conditions like snow, mud and soft soils. Yanmar provides a 1-year/1,000-hour warranty on the track.
Ease of service is another standout feature of the TL75VS. The model features easily accessible daily checkpoints, removable skid plates, three-panel engine access and a swing-out radiator that can be opened without tools for fast, convenient cleaning when necessary.
