The Zettelmeyer ZL1001 is a compact, hydrostatic full powershift wheel loader designed for efficient material handling with a bucket breakout force of 13,488.6 lbs (6,118 kg) and a heaped bucket capacity of 1.8 cubic yards (1 m³). It features a 7.4-foot (2 m) wide bucket, providing a 9.1-foot (3 m) dump clearance at maximum lift. The loader’s dimensions include a ground clearance of 2.1 feet (1 m), a height to the top of the cab of 10 feet (3 m), an 11.4-foot (3 m) hinge pin max height, and an 18.9-foot (5 m) length with the bucket on the ground. Powered by a naturally aspirated Deutz F4L 913 engine, the ZL1001 delivers 84 hp (63 kW) gross power and 80 hp (60 kW) net power at 2500 rpm, with torque measured at 1550 rpm. Its hydraulic system boasts a gear-type pump with a flow capacity of 29.8 gallons per minute (110 l/min), relief valve setting at 2610.7 psi, and dump cycle times of 1 second for dumping, 6 seconds for raising, and 3 seconds for lowering. The loader weighs approximately 16,358 lbs (7,420 kg) with an operating voltage of 12 V and a fuel capacity of 29.1 gallons (110 l). Front and rear axles use portal reduction with 100% hydraulically operated differential locks for superior off-road traction, and enclosed oil-immersed multi-disc brakes supplement hydrostatic retardation. It has a turning radius of 16.1 feet (5 m) and a max travel speed of 15.6 mph (24 kph) in both forward and reverse directions.
