1994-2008 KAWASAKI 50ZIV-2 WHEEL LOADER

Technical Description

The Kawasaki 50ZIV-2 wheel loader is a robust construction machine featuring a 90 hp (67 kW) natural aspiration B3.9C engine with four cylinders, delivering peak power at 2350 rpm and peak torque at 1600 rpm. It has an operating weight of approximately 16,380 lbs (7,430 kg) and a compact design with dimensions including a length of 20.2 ft (6 m), width over tires of 7.3 ft (2 m), height to the top of the cab at 10.2 ft (3 m), and a wheelbase of 8.6 ft (2 m). The loader’s bucket has a 1.8 cubic yard heaped capacity (1.5 cubic yards struck) and a width of 7.8 ft (2 m), with a breakout force of 13,700 lbs (6,214 kg). Its hydraulic system is powered by a gear-type pump with a flow capacity of 27 gal/min (102 l/min) and a relief valve set at 3,000 psi; dump, lower, and raise times are 1 sec, 2.8 sec, and 5.4 sec respectively. The transmission is a full powershift type with 3 forward and 3 reverse gears, allowing maximum travel speeds of 21.1 mph (34 kph) in both directions. Ground clearance stands at 1.3 ft (0 m), with a turning radius of 16.8 ft (5 m). Fuel and hydraulic system fluid capacities are 31.8 gal (117 l) and 19.9 gal (72 l), respectively. Additional features include 24 V operating voltage, a 50 A alternator, and rear axle oscillation of 24°, making the 50ZIV-2 well-suited for versatile earthmoving and material handling tasks in compact construction environments.
