Overview

Lighter, Faster, Stronger

The RT-50 touts a 1,400-pound rated operating capacity while coming in at just 5,180 pounds. Not to mention the industry's lowest ground pressure and the ability to be towed behind a ½-ton pick-up truck. This small machine packs an impressive punch for contractors, homeowners, or rental customers.

Works Hard. Tows Easy.

POWER

The ASV RT-50 offers exceptional digging and pushing power from its Posi-Power system combined with a 50-horsepower class diesel, 3-cylinder, turbo charged YANMAR 3TN engine. This smooth-running 3-cylinder diesel engine gives you the power you want, when you want it. And attachments are a breeze thanks to its efficient cooling system and robust hydraulic system with 3,000 psi of auxiliary pressure and 13.3 gpm flow. So you’ll get the job done faster and easier than ever before.

PERFORMANCE

Soft ground conditions are no problem for the RT-50. With its light weight and class-leading ground pressure of only 3.0 psi, you can get to work sooner after wet weather — even on sensitive turf. This is thanks to its 15-inch-wide tracks and even weight distribution on the patented Posi-Track undercarriage. It has a 7.1 mph top-speed to get around quickly. And the loader’s 109.6-inch pin height means operators can load landscape trucks and even small dump trucks.

COMFORT

Not only does Posi-Track technology improve traction, it also improves operator comfort with a smoother ride for less fatigue during a long day in the cab. For more comfort, there’s the optional suspended seat, cold weather cab with heater or pressurized all-weather cab with heat and A/C. And because of an exceptional 14.4 inches of ground clearance, nearly double that of comparable models, you can use the RT-50 to ride over logs, rocks or snow, for all-weather productivity.

SERVICEABILITY

There's no time for downtime, so the RT-50 features easily accessible maintenance points, zerk fittings for convenient greasing and spin-on, frame-mounted filters with single-wrench service. The direct-drive pump eliminates the labor-intensive belt servicing that comes with belt-driven pumps. Individually replaceable steel sprocket rollers, as well as standard metal-face seals keep maintenance down to a minimum.
