Doosan DL200-3 Troubleshooting

The Doosan DL200-3 wheel loader is powered by 359 cu.in (5.9L) Doosan DL06K 6-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power of 160 hp (119 kW) at 2100 rpm. The Doosan DL200-3 is equipped with a 4x3 power shift transmission, power steering system, hydraulic dual multi-disc brakes, and 20.5R25 standard tires. The hydraulic system has a pump with fluid flow rate of 42.2 gpm (160 lpm). The hydraulic pressure is 3625 psi (250 bar). The wheel loader has a rated operating capacity of 8535 lbs (3880 kg) and tipping load of 17070 lbs (7760 kg). The maximum lift height is 152" (3860 mm) to hinge pin, and bucket breakout force is 22165 lbs (10075 kg).

Engine Troubleshooting
