Featuring a 74-horsepower Tier 4 Final diesel engine with variable flow hydraulics, the new 2,650-pound-rated operating capacity Terex R265T compact track loader is the newest member of the Terex Generation 2 loader machines.
Boasting a machine width of only 70 inches, the R265T radial lift path compact track loader can maneuver and operate in confined or congested work sites – a feature that makes the machine ideal for landscape contractors, according to Terex.
It’s “designed to be a heavy-duty machine within a compact package,” a company news release says.
The R265T loader has 221 foot-pounds of peak torque, a tipping load of 7,571 pounds, a bucket breakout force of 5,800 pounds and a lift height of 125 inches, enabling it to handle a variety of tasks, such as loading, picking and carrying, grading, back dragging or snow removal.
Because the R265T is engineered with a radial lift path – meaning the loader arms rise in an arc pattern – the machine excels in digging and grading applications, according to Terex. The radial lift path also improves operator visibility.
The Terex R265T compact track loader comes standard with 18-inch wide tracks and patented “Posi-Track” undercarriage technology with multiple levels of suspension that distributes the machine’s 9,180-pound operating weight down to only 3.6 pounds per square inch of ground pressure.
This model is also available with optional 20-inch tracks to ensure operators can keep working year-round, even in wet, muddy or snowy conditions. For more information about Terex skid steer loaders and compact track loaders, visit www.terex.com/construction.
