Lift Arm
The V270 GEN:2 Skid Loader does not use the ordinary vertical-lift design. This loader’s lift arm is designed with the operator in mind.
- Low-profile lift arm design provides outstanding forward and side visibility.
- Self-leveling lift action provides better control of lifting loads.
- Heavy-duty timing link design, upper-rear channel support and large diameter pivot pins provide extra strength and rigidity to the lift arm, and exceptional rear visibility.
- Four-point support through dual bucket cylinders and two lift arm stop blocks on the front of the main frame evenly distribute digging forces.
Height to Hinge Pin – Fully Raised (mm) | 130″ (3310) |
Dump Reach at Full Height (mm) | 32″ (813) |
Serviceability
As with any Gehl loader, serviceability on the V270 GEN:2 Skid Loader is a snap.
- Large engine cover is hinged and positioned by gas-springs to assist lifting and holding in place, and allows for easy return to closed/operating position.
- Featured cab safety restraint bar for lifting ROPS/FOPS.
- Large rear door easily opens on hinges on right side, allowing full access for servicing and maintenance.
- Remote engine oil filter is on left side; easy access to hydraulic oil filter on right side.
- Entire ROPS/FOPS assembly tilts rearward with a hydraulic lift for easy internal service access.
- Drive chains and axle bearings are sealed systems that require no maintenance.
- Coded wiring takes the guesswork out of electrical system identification.
