The Terex SKL260H is a heavy-duty wheel loader engineered for high performance and versatility in material handling. It features a turbocharged 6-cylinder 1106C-E60 TA engine delivering 175 hp (131 kW) at 2200 rpm, providing robust power and efficiency. The loader’s bucket offers a 3.5 cubic yard (2 m³) capacity with a breakout force of 26,978 lbs (12,237 kg), and an 8.3 ft (2 m) width, enabling substantial load handling. The dump clearance at maximum raise is 9.4 ft (3 m), with a reach of 3.8 ft (1 m), optimizing unloading operations. Dimensionally, the machine stands 10.5 ft (3 m) tall (top of cab), with a ground clearance of 2.1 ft (1 m) and a wheelbase of 10.2 ft (3 m). The overall length with the bucket on the ground is 24 ft (7 m) and the width over tires is 7.8 ft (2 m), providing a balanced footprint for stability and maneuverability. The rear axle oscillation angle is 24°, enhancing terrain adaptability, and it has a turning radius of 20 ft (6 m). The hydraulic system supports a pump flow capacity of 42.3 gallons per minute (159 l/min) at a relief valve setting of 4500 psi, with a fluid capacity of 35.7 gallons (132 l), supporting efficient hydraulic operations. It operates on a 24 V electrical system. The hydrostatic transmission offers two forward and two reverse gears, with top speeds of 24.9 mph (39 kph) in both directions, facilitating operational flexibility. The operating weight is approximately 32,855 lbs (14,903 kg), with static tipping weight at 24,251 lbs (11,000 kg), and it uses 20.5-25 EM tires suitable for varied terrain and load conditions. Fuel capacity is 63.5 gallons (238 l), supporting extended operation durations.
