Yanmar Compact Equipment North America will highlight the next-generation ViO17-1E mini excavator along with the ViO35-6A and SV40 models at Equip Expo on Oct. 18-21 in Louisville, Ky.
Additionally, ASV’s new Yanmar-powered RT-50 and RT-40 Posi-Track loaders will make their trade show debut while the MAX-Series RT-135F and RT-75 loaders will be showcased at the tradeshow for the first time. Both brands will be at booth No. 1142 and will also feature the equipment digging, backfilling and grading in demo area booth No. 7766D.
“We are thrilled to have both an indoor booth space and a large outdoor demo area to showcase some of our newest additions to the Yanmar CE and ASV lineups,” said Regan Meyer, Yanmar Compact Equipment North America marketing manager. “The new machines and two brands demonstrate how we strive to create equipment that meets the individual needs of our customers and helps take their businesses to new levels. We look forward to showcasing our newest solutions for the industry.”
Specifications of the ViO17-1E mini excavator include:
- A 4,023-pound operating weight
- 14.5-hp engine and is best suited for residential work, landscaping and small general construction projects
- True zero trail swing technology for maximum workplace performance in tight spaces.
The new Yanmar-powered RT-50 is paired with a powerful 53.8-hp Tier 4, three-cylinder turbocharged engine and uses ASV’s Posi-Power system for high tractive effort and exceptional pushing and digging power. The compact track loader allows operators to be more productive with high-performance thanks, in part, to a nimble 58.5-inch width, a 9.1-foot lift height, a 1,400-lbs rated operating capacity and a 7.1 mph top speed.
The repowered RT-40 compact track loader includes a more powerful, new 38.2-hp Tier 4, three-cylinder Yanmar engine and is outfitted with ASV’s Posi-Power system like its RT-50 counterpart.
Additionally, ASV’s Max-Series RT-135F and RT-75 loaders will be featured at Equip Expo for the first time. These models include a next-generation cab featuring premium 360-degree visibility, a more spacious operator area, a fully adjustable seat, a new touchscreen display and more. The new RT-135 Forestry Posi-Track loader is the industry’s most powerful compact track loader, featuring 10 percent more horsepower than the previous titleholder it replaces, ASV’s RT-120.
