New Holland C232 Troubleshooting
The
New Holland C232 compact track loader driveline system components: a 207 cu.in
(3.4L) FPT F5H FL463H 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power
of 68 hp (51 kW), and 2-speed hydrostatic transmission. The hydraulic system has
a pump with a rated capacity of 22.5 gal/min (85.2 l/min). The system relief
pressure is 3050 psi (210 bar). The New Holland C232 is equipped with hydraulic
disc brakes and steel-embedded rubber tracks. The compact track loader has a
boom lifting force of 4840 lbs (2200 kg) and bucket breakout force of 7360 lbs
(3345 kg). The rated operating capacity is 2240 lbs (1020 kg), and tipping load
is 6400 lbs (2900 kg).
