The ASV RT120 Forestry Posi Track is a rubber-tracked loader engineered for forestry and vegetation management applications. Reviewer Barry Ashenhurst reckons it’s “possibly Australia’s only compact loader with such a focused objective”

“The power plant is now a 3.8-litre Cummins rather than a 3.4-litre Perkins,” Barry says.

“The new engine is Tier 4 compliant, which means it meets US emission standards. The Perkins was Tier 4 compliant too but the Cummins has 120hp (compared with 111hp) and 488Nm of torque (compared with 450Nm).

“The chassis is new as well. So is the cab, which now has air-conditioning that copes more easily with sticky Australian summers – no small matter when you’re sitting in a confined space that without decent sealing would be little more than a sauna with windows.”
