Engine Specifications for a Gehl 4510 Skid Steer

Skid Steer Loader Definition

• A skid steer loader or skid loader is a compact piece of machinery with two arms attached to a bucket. These arms help you lift and maneuver the bucket, and you can use this bucket for scooping up material and moving it. A skid steer helps you with different landscaping jobs, including excavating trenches and moving soil and mulch around your yard. You operate the controls from a cab surrounded by a cage, which protects you from flying debris.

Safety

• Always remain in the cab of the skid steer loader while operating it. These machines are extremely heavy, and a fall could place you under the tires of the vehicle. Always keep away from the skid steer when others are operating it. If not, you place yourself in danger of becoming crushed by the bucket, tires or the machine itself. Always wear goggles and gloves to protect you from debris. Read your user's manual to learn how to operate the machine properly, and never exceed the operating capacity of the machine. If you exceed the rated operating capacity (ROC), you can tip the loader. The SL4510 has an ROC of 1,150 lbs.
