New Holland L328 Troubleshooting
The
New Holland L328 skid steer loader driveline system components: a 207 cu.in
(3.4L) FPT F5H FL463A 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power
of 68 hp (51 kW), and 1-speed or 2-speed hydrostatic transmission. The hydraulic
system has a pump with a rated capacity of 24.2 gal/min (91.5 l/min) or 37.6
gal/min (142.5 l/min). The New Holland L328 is equipped with a vertical-lift
boom, ASA 100 drive chains, and 12x16.5 standard tires. The skid steer
has a maximum lift height of 129.4" (3285 mm) to hinge pin and dump
height of 103.1" (2620 mm). The rated operating capacity is 2800 lbs (1270 kg),
and tipping load is 5600 lbs (2540 kg).
