F5B FL413 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power of 84 hp (63
kW), and 1-speed or 2-speed hydro transmission. The hydraulic system has a pump
with a rated capacity of 24.2 gal/min (91.5 l/min) or 37.6 gal/min (142.5
l/min). The Case SR270 is equipped with a radial-lift loader boom, ASA 100 drive
chains, and 12x16.5 or 33x15.5x16.5 tires. The skid steer loader has a rated
operating capacity of 2700 lbs (1225 kg) and tipping load of 5400 lbs (2450 kg).
The boom breakout force is 6100 lbs (2770 kg), and bucket breakout force is 8680
lbs (3945 kg).
