For large jobs where the work is demanding, there is no substitute for a powerful machine that can stay
productive in the widest range of ground conditions. That’s why the PT-100 is the industry standard for
construction, excavation and brushcutting contractors worldwide.
The PT-100 is ASV’s most powerful rubber track loader, with 99.5 horsepower (74 kW) and 304 ft/lb (412 Nm)
of torque. High torque lets the PT-100 breeze through demanding work that other machines can’t handle. To
keep it running, even in hot, humid climates, the PT-100 uses a high capacity cooling system.
The PT-100’s undercarriage uses 42 wheels to spread the machine’s weight over the length and width of its
rubber tracks. By using a maximum number of wheels, the weight per wheel is lower, track life is longer
and you get ASV’s legendary traction that makes them the best in the industry. Suspension of the
undercarriage increases traction even more, promotes longer machine and track life, and keeps the operator
comfortable all day long. This patented technology lets the PT-100 stay productive in virtually any ground
condition.
The PT-100 uses a time-proven hydrostatic powertrain that includes direct drive motors and unique track
drive sprockets. Rotating sleeves on the sprockets mesh with the tracks’ rubber lugs for highly efficient
and smooth transfer of power to the tracks. Two-speed drive motors let the operator select low speed for
aggressive digging and high speed for faster travel.
The standard auxiliary hydraulic system on the PT-100 offers intermittent or continuous low flow and
continuous high flow. An advanced load-sensing hydraulic system gives the PT-100 about 10 percent more
hydraulic power than other systems, making it the ideal platform for demanding jobs like brushcutting,
mulching - even pavement milling.
Standard equipment includes quick-connect hydraulic fittings and a pre-wired electric connector for
control of attachments. A hydraulic quick-attach makes connection to attachments fast and easy.
The PT-100 is easy and comfortable to operate. It can be outfitted with a choice of enclosed cabs that can
include air conditioning and/or heat for operating in inclement weather. Pilot-operated joysticks give the
operator low-effort and precise control of machine speed, direction and of the attachment.
A custom-designed Forestry Guard Package is available for the PT-100 that includes everything needed to
put the PT-100 into the deepest woods for rugged, productive work.
