Compact track loaders offer several benefits including superior traction on challenging terrains, reduced ground damage, increased lifting capacity, and enhanced operator comfort. Their rubber tracks provide better stability and flotation on soft, uneven or muddy ground compared to wheeled machines like skid steers.
Yanmar Compact Equipment recently launched the TL65RS as part of its new line of compact track loaders. The midsize machine is the smallest in Yanmar’s current lineup of compact track loaders and offers superior transportability and maneuverability in construction, utility and rental applications.
“The TL65RS is a perfect fit for tighter job sites where operators need to balance power and maneuverability,” says Peter Ovrebo, product management director - North America, Yanmar Compact Equipment North America. “Our signature reliability allows the unit to thrive in a wide variety of jobs.”
The radial-lift TL65RS is a durable, construction-grade machine. A 67 hp Yanmar Tier 4 Final diesel engine and 2,100-pound rated operating capacity maximizes performance and productivity. Operators can efficiently navigate the job site with a travel speed of up to 7.5 mph. Its torsion axle suspended undercarriage features a pivot link system at the rear axle. The linkage technology utilizes a spring load to reduce oscillation and stabilize the machine, improving material retention and ride quality.
Operators can work longer in comfort with the machine’s standard mechanical suspended seat; and a 7-inch touchscreen display provides convenience on the job. Premium 360-degree visibility enhances job site awareness and safety, which is bolstered by the inclusion of a removable roof hatch escape.
The TL65RS boasts multiple options to enhance productivity and ease of operation. A work tool positioner allows operators to create a preset for the angle of the attachment based on the job, while return-to-position technology enables them to set a designated height for the loader arms. Self-leveling technology utilizes dual-direction capabilities to automatically level the load while raising and — something not seen on many other compact track loaders — lowering the loader arms. Auto two-speed allows the machine to shift automatically between low- and high-speed modes for a smoother ride. This gives operators more control in spaces with limited room, grading and other applications requiring finesse.
These innovative offerings, as well as many others, help increase efficiency and make the machine easy to learn, allowing for a quick training process for users of all experience levels.
