Gehl 4625SX Troubleshooting
The
Gehl 4625SX skid steer loader is powered by 134.1 cu.in (2.2L) Kubota V2203
4-cylinder direct injection water-cooled diesel engine with a rated power of
45.4 hp (33.8 kW) at 2600 rpm. The Gehl 4625 SX is equipped with 1-speed
hydrostatic transmission, radial-lift loader boom, 80H roller chains, and
10.5x15 or 29-12.5x15 tires. The hydraulic system has a pump with fluid flow
rate of 18 gpm (68.2 lpm). The hydraulic pressure is 3000 psi (207 bar). The
skid steer loader has a rated operating capacity of 1350 lbs (615 kg) and
tipping load of 2700 lbs (1230 kg). The max lift height is 114.8 inches (2915
mm) to hinge pin, and dump height is 90.9 inches (2310 mm).
