The Doosan DL220-5 is a mid-sized wheel loader engineered for versatile material handling in construction, municipal, and industrial applications. Powered by a Doosan DL06 six-cylinder engine producing 160 net horsepower at 2100 rpm with 542 lbs/ft of torque, the loader delivers robust performance for demanding tasks. The machine features a 2.3 cubic-meter bucket with a 2,315 lbs breakout force and an 8.4-foot bucket width, providing substantial loading capacity for aggregates, waste, and other materials. Operating at 27,381 lbs, the DL220-5 achieves a static tipping load of 21,231 lbs and reaches a maximum dump height of 9.3 feet, making it suitable for high-sided truck loading operations. The powershift transmission includes multiple power modes—Power, Standard, Eco, and Auto Idle—optimizing fuel consumption and performance across varied work conditions. The machine incorporates a Z-bar lift arm linkage system ideal for digging and heavy lifting, complemented by limited-slip differentials on both axles for improved traction. Advanced comfort features include an intelligently designed cab with superior visibility, automatic air conditioning, ergonomic joystick controls, and an air-suspension seat. The hydraulic system utilizes optimized pumps with a 31.8-gallon capacity, while the fuel tank holds 58.7 gallons and supports a DEF tank of 8.4 gallons for Tier 4 emissions compliance. The loader achieves a maximum forward speed of 24.3 mph and features 20.5-R25 tires designed for rugged terrain versatility.
