ASV RS50 Troubleshooting
The
ASV RS50 skid steer loader is powered by 135 cu.in (2.2L) Perkins 404D-22
four-cylinder indirect injection naturally aspirated diesel engine with a rated
power of 50 hp (37.3 kW) at 2800 rpm. The ASV RS-50 is equipped with a two-speed
hydrostatic transmission, 80 ANSI continuous roller chains, and 10x16.5 standard
tires. The hydraulic system has a gear pump with fluid flow rate of 17.1 gpm (65
lpm). The hydraulic pressure is 3335 psi (230 bar). The skid steer loader has a
rated operating capacity of 1650 lbs (748 kg) and tipping load of 3300 lbs (1497
kg). The boom lifting force is 4750 lbs (2155 kg), and bucket breakout force is
4750 lbs (2155 kg).
