Info2018 Gehl R220 Radial-Lift Skid Loaders | The Next Revolution The versatile Gehl Radial-Lift Skid Loaders are designed to meet the demanding needs of contractors, municipalities, landscapers, mining, dairies and agricultural operations. These skid loaders also excel in excavating, grading and digging below grade applications. Due to the radial-lift path, the maximum reach is greater at the middle of the lift height. This is highly beneficial for loading flatbed trucks, backfilling or dumping over a wall. Radial-Lift Design offers enhanced performance in excavating, grading and digging below grade applications. Due to the radial lift path, the maximum reach is greater at the middle of the lift height. Excellent Forward Reach The Gehl radial-lift skid loaders provide excellent forward reach at the middle of the lift path. This provides excellent performance for loading flatbed trucks, backfilling or dumping over a wall. Features may include: Operator's Cabin The new R220 has a spacious operator station with plenty of adjustability and enhanced comfort features that users have come to expect from Gehl.Large Level II ROPS/FOPS is standard equipment.New side-folding restraint bar and adjustable armrests enhance operator safety and comfort.Adjustable control pods (joystick and hand/foot configurations) and an optional air-ride seat deliver outstanding comfort.Cab forward design enhances view to the bucket edge. Lowered rear towers improve visibility to the rear of the machine.Controls Controls on the R220 incorporate intuitive design, state-of-the-art technology and plenty of options to suit the preference of any operator.Four control options include T-Bar, Joystick, Dual-Hand, and Hand/Foot.Auxiliary controls are located on the control grip in all control configurations for easy access.Customizable integrated digital display provides coolant, fuel, battery, environmental and engine regeneration, and more information in real time.Adjustable joystick control pods provide ease of operator control with minimal effort, reducing fatigue.New upper-left and upper-right instrument panels provide easy readout and switch access.Hydraloc system applies brakes whenever the operator raises the restraint bar, leaves the operators seat or switches off the ignition.Engine The R220 is equipped with a top-of-the-line Yanmar Tier IV engine that meets emissions standards and provides the muscle needed to tackle demanding jobs with ease.The DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) system provides clean emissions without the need for additional fuel after-treatment additives.The DPF requires regeneration to maintain optimal running conditions. This occurs passively as the machine is operated, but also requires occasional manual regeneration by the operator.Regeneration is intuitively managed through the digital display and a clearly labeled rocker switch.strong>Hydraulics The R220 has amped-up hydraulic systems which incorporate intuitive design for precise controllability.Impre
