ASV has introduced the VT-80 Forestry mid-sized compact track loader for site preparation, forestry and construction. Powered by a 74-hp Tier-4 Final Yanmar engine, the 9,645-lb. VT-80 Forestry provides power and performance and offers a 2,800-lb. rated operating capacity.

“The ASV VT-80 and VT-80 Forestry are built to give operators a high-performance machine they can operate comfortably throughout the year,” said Peter Ovrebo, director of product management for Yanmar Compact Equipment North America. “Whether you are moving earth, loading trucks, or forestry mulching, these new machines and their reliable Yanmar engines provide operators with the power and performance needed to tackle any job.”

Performance and Operation

The VT-80 Forestry is part of ASV’s redesigned line of mid-sized compact track loaders. The machine features ASV’s patented Posi-Track undercarriage with dual-level suspension for traversal over tough terrain. The 7-in. color touch display supports operation, allowing operators to monitor machine specs, service history, schedules and more. Automated features like the return-to-dig and work tool positioner functions are designed for repetitive tasks.  

Standard hydraulic flow has been increased to 24.7 gpm, while high flow of 34.3 gpm can be utilized for attachments. The cab of the MAX-Series model features 360-degree visibility and a pressurized cab to keep dust and debris out.

The machine is designed with a smaller overall machine footprint compared to previous models, allowing work in tight spaces. Combined with the performance and agility of ASV’s Posi-Track rubber track undercarriage, the compact track loader can reach remote jobsites.

Compact Track Loader Features

  • Vertical Lift: Offering reach at maximum height for loading trucks, dumping and other at-height work
  • Flexible Polycord Tracks: Conforms to the shape of the ground for traction and does not break from continuous bending
  • Ground Clearance: Allows operators to traverse over tough terrain
  • Optional Telematics System: Monitor your machine’s location and other information with Yanmar SmartAssist Remote

Forestry Applications

Designed as an entry-level mulching machine, the VT-80 Forestry is designed for both forestry and landscaping applications. This model takes on all the features of the VT-80 and adds specialized capabilities for forestry and land-clearing operations. It includes a heavy-duty forestry package, which protects components from damage by debris and flying wood chips. The reinforced door and polycarbonate windows provide extra protection for the operator.

Additionally, the VT-80 Forestry comes equipped with a high-capacity cooling system to manage the increased heat generated during forestry applications. The hydraulic system supports forestry-specific attachments, such as mulchers and stump grinders.
