NEW COMPACT TORION
CLAAS UK is to expand the TORION range of wheel loaders with the addition of two compact
models, following the initial successful introduction of the medium and large frame versions.
THE new TORION 639 and 535 are compact
wheel loaders with articulated steering
and a low overall height of less than 2.5m,
making them ideal for use on livestock
and dairy farms, or for smaller re-handling
facilities.
Both the TORION 639 and 535 are
powered by Yanmar 3.3 litre, 4-cylinder
engines with power outputs of 68hp and
63hp respectively. These engines are Stage
3B compliant using the combination of a
Diesel Oxidation Catalytic convertor (DOC)
and Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), without
the need for Selective Catalytic Reduction
(SCR). Drive is through a 20kph hydrostatic
transmission with two speed ranges of
0-6kph and 0-20kph, which are selected at
the flick of a switch.
The articulated joint incorporates a dou-
ble-acting steering ram. Articulation angle
is 10° and the steering angle is 40°, resulting
in a tight inner turning circle of just 2.5m on
standard tyres.
At maximum articulation, the TORION
535 has a Full Turn Tipping Load (FTTL) of
3450kg, rising to 3850kg for the TORION 639.
In common with many other wheel loaders
of this size, both machines are fitted with
a Zettlemeyer Wide (TPZ Wide) headstock.
As with other models in the TORION range,
the boom has Z kinematics, which provides
true parallel lift when used with buckets or
pallet forks and a high tear-out force.
‘ ideal for use on livestock and dairy farms,
or for smaller re-handling facilities ’
The hydraulic system on the TORION
639/535 has a maximum capacity of 77
litres/minute and 70 litres/minute respec-
tively, both with an operating pressure of
230 bar, so ensuring a fast response for
quick and accurate loading.
The cab features a full height front
windscreen, giving excellent visibility over
the front wheels and attachments fitted to
the tapered boom. A rounded rear window
provides clear rearward visibility.
The steering column is infinitely adjustable
for ease of operation and access, with all the
main controls easily accessible and colour
coded on the operator’s right-hand side,
alongside the joystick.
