The Kawasaki 50ZIV wheel loader is a robust and versatile machine designed for demanding construction applications. It features a 4-cylinder B3.9C diesel engine with natural aspiration, delivering 90 hp (67 kW) at 2350 rpm and 246 lb-ft of torque at 1600 rpm. The loader has an operating weight of 15,145.8 lbs (6,870 kg) and a bucket capacity of 1.8 cu yds (1 m³) heaped, with a bucket width of 7.8 ft (2 m). Breakout force is rated at 13,700 lbs (6,214 kg), and the maximum dump clearance at full lift is 8.4 ft (2 m). The hydraulic system provides a pump flow of 27 gal/min (102 l/min) with a relief valve setting of 3000 psi, enabling fast cycle times: 5.4 seconds to raise, 2.8 seconds to lower, and 1 second to dump. The full powershift transmission offers three forward and three reverse gears, with a top speed of 21.1 mph (34 kph) in both directions. The machine measures 19.7 ft (6 m) in length with the bucket on the ground, 10.2 ft (3 m) in height to the top of the cab, and 7.3 ft (2 m) in width over tires, with a wheelbase of 8.4 ft (2 m). Tire size is 15.5x25-10PR (L-2), and the turning radius is 16.8 ft (5 m). Fluid capacities include 31.8 gal (117 l) for fuel, 19.9 gal (72 l) for hydraulics, and 4.8 gal (15 l) for cooling, front axle, and rear axle. The Kawasaki 50ZIV combines power, efficiency, and maneuverability for optimal productivity on job sites.
