| 92ZV-2 New Model Introduction |
|
| We are very pleased to announce the introduction of the new Kawasaki 92ZV-2.
The 92ZV-2 is a strong 6 to 6.6 cubic yard wheel loader that is the top of its class. It fills the gap between the high performance
90ZV-2 and the popular workhorse 95ZV-2.
The applications that are ideal for the 92ZV-2 are: |
| • |
Load-out applications in quarries or sand and gravel operations |
| • |
Hopper feeding in asphalt plants |
| • |
Log handling in mill yards and paper mills |
| • |
Recycling/refuse applications |
| • |
Fork applications handling pipe, pallets, etc. |
|
|

|
| The 92ZV-2 is strong enough to do bank digging in sand and gravel to load hoppers or articulated trucks.
It is not only strong, but quick and agile. Operator’s love the power and balance of this machine. It is an easy machine to operate and easy on operating costs too.
The 92ZV-2 was developed from the ground up. Kawasaki engineers decided that to meet their exacting design standards, they would need to develop new systems.
All of the competitive models for the 92ZV-2 originated as stretched versions of the next smaller model. Not the 92ZV-2.
New chassis, new transmission, new hydraulic systems were all developed to allow the 92ZV-2 to be the best in this class.
Maneuverable, yet strong. Quick, but powerful. Easy to operate and economical to maintain. The 92ZV-2 is a machine that you need to demonstrate to see the real value.
You need to sit in the seat to realize that there is a big difference in machines. Kawasaki at its best. |
