Case SR210 Troubleshooting

The Case SR210 skid steer loader is powered by 207 cu.in (3.4L) FPT F5H FL463A four-cylinder direct injection turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power of 68 hp (51 kW) at 2500 rpm. The Case SR210 is equipped with a radial-lift loader boom, single-speed or two-speed hydrostatic transmission, ASA 100 drive chains, and 12.00x16.5 standard tires. The hydraulic system has a pump with fluid flow rate of 24.2 gpm (91.5 lpm) or 33.2 gpm (125.7 lpm). The skid steer loader has a rated operating capacity of 2100 lbs (955 kg) and tipping load of 4200 lbs (1905 kg). The boom breakout force is 4570 lbs (2075 kg), and bucket breakout force is 7270 lbs (3305 kg).
