New Holland L216 Troubleshooting
The
New Holland L216 skid steer loader driveline system components: a 135.2 cu.in
(2.2L) Shibaura N844LT 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power
of 57 hp (42 kW), and single-speed hydrostatic transmission. The hydraulic
system has a pump with a rated capacity of 18.4 gal/min (69.7 l/min). The system
relief pressure is 3045 psi (210 bar). The New Holland L216 is equipped with a
radial-lift boom, ASA 80 drive chains, and 10x16.5 tires. The
skid steer loader has a max lift height of 112" (2845 mm) to hinge pin and
dump height of 88.4" (2245 mm). The rated operating capacity is 1600 lbs (725
kg), and tipping load is 3200 lbs (1455 kg).
