ASV track loader designed with longer track life

ASV LLC, Grand Rapids, Minnesota, introduces the large-frame, radial-lift Posi-Track RT-75 compact track loader. The RT-75 features highly efficient hydraulics and a high capacity cooling system while delivering superior serviceability. ASV’s Posi-Track undercarriage provides high ground clearance, low ground pressure, traction and long track life. These features make the compact track loader the ideal machine for applications from construction, landscaping and agriculture to forestry, snow removal and more.

The machine features ASV’s patented Posi-Track rubber track suspension, known for its smooth ride. The dual-level suspension of the RT-75 features both suspended wheels and axles, designed to manage every type of terrain. The suspended wheels and fully-flexible track conform to the ground designed for maximum traction in the roughest conditions. In addition, the multiple wheel contact points and triple-guide lugs performs well on steep slopes. The RT-75 comes standard with 18-inch-wide tracks, resulting in a ground pressure of only 3.6 pounds per square inch. Optional 20-inch tracks lower ground pressures to 3.2 pounds per square inch.

ASV manufactures all rollers with mechanical face seals that don’t require maintenance for the life of the machine. The tracks contain embedded co-polymer cords for extra strength and are produced using a single-cure process, eliminating cure-point weaknesses in the track that can lead to premature breakage. The result is a 1,500- to 2,000-hour track life and a two-year, 1,500-hour track warranty.

The RT-75 achieves Tier 4 Final compliance using a diesel oxidation catalyst that requires no regeneration, no sensors, no diesel exhaust fluid, less wiring and no additional maintenance.

ASV built the RT-75’s auxiliary hydraulic system to be efficient, including 35.7 gallons per minute high flow and 3,300 pounds per square inch. Because the machine includes larger line sizes, hydraulic coolers and directdrive pumps, more flow and pressure is transferred directly to the attachment.

The machine features a rated operating capacity of 2,650 pounds and a tipping load of 7,571 pounds. It is 70 inches wide and has a 126-inch lift height. The RT-75 also is available in a heavy-duty customization package that includes guarding around areas such as lights, the AC condenser and the rear screen. The RT-75 Heavy-Duty uses a hydraulically driven, auto-reversing cooling fan, similar to the fan used on the RT-120 Forestry, to blow debris out of the engine compartment screens. A full rear brush guard is also available as a factory installed option. The unit can be paired with all standard attachments, such as backhoes, buckets, snow blades, brush cutters and pallet forks.
