Case SV280B Troubleshooting
The
Case SV280B skid steer loader is powered by 207 cu.in (3.4L) FPT F5H FL463A
4-cycle 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power of 68 hp (51
kW) at 2500 rpm. The Case SV280B is equipped with a vertical-lift loader boom,
one-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 37.6 gpm (142.5 lpm). The loader has a boom breakout
force of 6010 lbs (2730 kg) and bucket breakout force of 8775 lbs (3990 kg). The
rated operating capacity is 2800 lbs (1270 kg), and tipping load is 5600 lbs
(2540 kg).
