Yanmar Compact Equipment rolled out its new line of compact track loaders at ConExpo, and it's not just a rebranded line from sister company ASV.
Ranging from 67 to 103.5 horsepower, the TL65RS, TL75VS, TL80VS and TL100VS have been designed from the ground up by Yanmar to meet a variety of construction needs. Production on the TL100VS will start this spring while the other three CTLs will begin production in late 2023.
“These new compact track loaders create a full line of compact equipment, and we are excited to bring more value to the market with the reliable products we’re known for,” said Buck Storlie, product manager, Yanmar Compact Equipment. “Customers love our mini excavators for their quality construction and trusted performance in any conditions and now those benefits will be available in our compact track loaders.”
Yanmar says all the models are construction-grade machines and include extra durability for tough conditions, while the Tier 4 Final Yanmar diesel engines offer plenty of power.
Operators will experience 360-degree visibility from the standard suspended seat. “The views are just as good from the outside as the inside. You’re able to see all around that loader – the tracks, the bucket and the objects you’re working around," says Storlie. LED lighting comes standard of the front and rear for added visibility. An optional side light kit is also available.
Each CTL will have a two-year/2,000-hour warranty and a suspended undercarriage with a pivot-link system at the rear axle for added resistance on tough jobs.
