Excavation Equipment - Mustang-Gehl Company 550Z

The 550Z from Mustang-Gehl Company comes with a 47.6 hp Yanmar Tier 4-certified, turbocharged diesel engine with an electronic throttle for precise control. Operating cost savings are possible with Eco mode and auto-deceleration features. Eco mode will reduce the engine speed by 10 percent without sacrificing power, while auto-deceleration decreases the engine speed to idle after four seconds without hydraulic movement. The features provide a 20 percent reduction in fuel consumption. An angle blade with float and bolt-on cutting edge is a factory-installed option. Using the rocker switch on the blade lever, the hydraulic angle blade can be angled 25 degrees to push material aside as the machine moves forward, eliminating the need for repetitive repositioning. The blade can be simultaneously angled and raised or lowered to reduce backfilling time. 262/334-9461; www.mustangmfg.com.
