Mustang 2044 Troubleshooting
The
Mustang 2044 skid steer loader driveline system components: a 133.6 cu.in
(2.19L) Yanmar 4TNV88 4-cylinder vertical direct injection water-cooled
diesel engine with a rated power of 47 hp (34.2 kW), and 1-speed hydrostatic
transmission. The hydraulic system has a pump with a rated capacity of 18.5
gal/min (70 l/min). The system pressure is 2350 psi (162 bar). The
Mustang 2044 is equipped with a radial-lift boom, 80K drive chains, and 10x16.5
HD standard tires. The skid steer has a maximum lift height of 112" (2845 mm) to
hinge pin and dump height of 88.2" (2240 mm). The rated operating capacity is
1450 lbs (659 kg), and tipping load is 2900 lbs (1320 kg).
