TEREX SKL854 WHEEL LOADER

Technical Description

The Terex SKL854 is a compact, hydrostatic wheel loader equipped with a Perkins 1104C-44 engine delivering 82.5 hp (61 kW), optimized for medium-duty construction and material handling tasks. It features a 1.6 cubic yard (1 m³) heaped bucket capacity, providing efficient loading and dumping capabilities with a maximum dump clearance of 9.1 ft (3 m) and a reach of 2.7 ft (1 m) at max lift. The machine’s operating weight is approximately 14,991.5 lbs (6,800 kg), with a static tipping load of 10,802.7 lbs (4,900 kg), ensuring stability under heavy loads. Dimensionally, the SKL854 measures 18.5 ft (5 m) in length with the bucket on the ground and stands 9.2 ft (3 m) tall to the top of the cab, with a wheelbase of 7.6 ft (2 m) and ground clearance of 1.6 ft (0.5 m), enabling maneuverability in confined spaces. It runs on 405/70 R20 tires optimal for traction and durability on various terrains. Fuel capacity is 29.1 gallons (110 liters), supporting extended operation times. The transmission is hydrostatic, allowing smooth, variable-speed control and efficient power delivery for precision loading operations. The hydraulic system includes a proportional control valve with multiple circuits, optimizing bucket and loader arm responsiveness. The SKL854’s combination of compact size, reliable power, and hydraulic efficiency makes it suitable for diverse applications including construction, landscaping, and material transport.
