New Holland L220 Troubleshooting
The
New Holland L220 skid steer loader driveline system components: a 133.8 cu.in
(2.2L) Shibaura N844LT 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power
of 57 hp (42 kW), and one-speed or two-speed hydro transmission. The hydraulic
system has a pump with a rated capacity of 19 gal/min (72 l/min) or 28.8 gal/min
(109 l/min). The New Holland L220 is equipped with a vertical-lift loader boom,
ASA 80 drive chains, and 10x16.5 standard tires. The skid steer has a
maximum lift height of 121" (3075 mm) to hinge pin and dump height of 94.5"
(2400 mm). The rated operating capacity is 2000 lbs (905 kg), and tipping load
is 4000 lbs (1815 kg).
