Earlier this year at Yanmar’s EVO Center in Acworth, Georgia, Product Management Director Peter Ovrebo showed off ASV’s VT-100 compact track loader.
The 10,345-pound, 103.5-horsepower model was introduced in 2023 to fill a gap in the company’s lineup between its 74-horsepower RT-75 and 135-horsepower RT-135 CTLs.
The vertical-lift loader features ASV’s patented Posi-Track undercarriage, a dual-level suspension system, 360-degree cab views and a cooling system for extreme conditions. It is ideal for loading and grading applications in landscaping and construction. It can travel at speeds up to 9.3 mph with a low, 4-psi ground pressure.
Check out the video above to get an inside look at:
- How the poly-cord track design follows the contours of the ground
- Tool-free rear access panels and separated coolers
- Electro-hydraulic controls with customizable joystick patterns, sensitivity adjustments and add-on technology features to ease operation
- High-flow and standard-flow auxiliary hydraulic options
ASV also offers a forestry configuration with additional forestry-rated guarding and a built-in limb riser. Both come with a two-year, 2,000-hour warranty. The warranty includes a no-derailment guarantee and covers the tracks for the entire warranty period.
