The 490T skid steer loader is a high-performance, multi-functional machine designed for heavy-duty work in confined spaces. It combines flexible maneuverability with powerful lifting capabilities, making it suitable for landscaping, construction in tight areas, and agricultural applications.
Description
The 490T Skid Steer Loader is a versatile and high-performance machine engineered for demanding material handling tasks in restricted environments. With a robust operating weight of 1,100 kg and a rated operating capacity of 430 kg, it strikes the perfect balance between agile maneuverability and heavy-lifting power, making it an ideal choice for landscaping, narrow-access construction, and agricultural applications.
The machine offers exceptional versatility with multiple engine options, including ROTO, Koop, and Briggs & Stratton, delivering a powerful 16.8 kW output at 3,600 rpm. This powertrain, combined with a 20 MPa hydraulic system, ensures smooth, responsive control and the durability needed for consistent daily operation. Its high-efficiency design is supported by dual 20L fuel and hydraulic tanks, allowing for extended work cycles with minimal downtime.
Designed for tight job sites, the loader features a slim 1,000 mm chassis width and a compact front turning radius of 1,660 mm, allowing it to navigate through standard gates and narrow corridors with ease. Despite its small footprint, it delivers impressive vertical reach with a max working height of 2,590 mm and a dump height of 2,050 mm, ensuring effortless loading into trucks and high-walled containers.
