Doosan DL250 High Lift wheel loader ideal for loading
light material into high-sided trucks and hoppers
WEST FARGO, N.D., January 2011 — The DL250 High Lift wheel loader from Doosan is designed to load stockpiled, light materials such as grain, fertilizer, coal or waste into high-sided trucks or hoppers.
Equipped with a 3.4-cubic-yard bucket, the DL250 High Lift has a dump height of 10 feet 9 inches with the arms fully raised and the bucket at a 45-degree angle. Height at the bucket pivot point is 14 feet 3 inches.
The DL250 High Lift features a standard bucket breakout force of 27,337 pounds. Static tipping load at full turn is 21,398 pounds. Turning radius at bucket edge is 19 feet 9 inches at the maximum steering angle of 40 degrees. Axle oscillation is ± 11 inches.
A Tier 3 compliant, 6-cylinder Doosan DL06 diesel engine provides 162 net horsepower. The advanced engine design features a high-pressure common rail direct fuel injection system and electronic control that results in increased power and torque.
Four forward speed ranges provide maximum speeds of 4.1, 7.1, 13.9 and 21.1 mph. Three reverse speed ranges offer maximum speeds of 4.3, 7.7 and 14.6 mph. Depending on the application, the operator can choose between Standard and Economy working modes for either maximum productivity or minimum fuel consumption.
Like all Doosan wheel loaders, the DL250 High Lift features a full powershift transmission with manual, automatic and semiautomatic (with “kick down” for first gear) modes. Transmission and engine operation can be easily diagnosed by connecting a laptop computer. Standard front and rear axle limited slip differentials ensure positive traction in wet or soft conditions.
Hydraulically controlled, multi-plate wet disc brakes and dual brake circuits provide positive braking power, and brakes are self-adjusting for longer life. A spring-applied/hydraulically released (SAHR) parking brake is mounted on the transmission to prevent the loader from rolling after engine shutdown.
An optional electric-powered emergency steering system backs up the hydraulic power steering system in case of a malfunction and a safety device prevents starting the engine when not in neutral.

The DL250 High Lift provides operators with outstanding visibility and low cabin sound levels. A roomy cabin, powerful heating and air conditioning system, tilting/telescoping steering column, ample storage space and a comfortable seat also help to reduce operator fatigue. An optional load isolation system provides smoother travel with a loaded bucket.
All routine maintenance on the DL250 High Lift can be performed from ground level. Centralized hydraulic check ports and easily accessible drain valves for engine oil and coolant simplify routine maintenance. Remote greasing lubrication ports allow front pins, steering cylinders and the rear support assembly to be lubed from the outside of the machine.
The transmission oil filler pipe is located near the articulation joint for easy access, and sight gauges for hydraulic oil and coolant levels allow easy daily checks while reducing the risk of contaminants entering the systems. In addition, the radiator fan can be reversed from the cabin to quickly clean out the radiator and hydraulic oil cooler in dusty environments.
Other options include a single lever control for travel functions and front-mounted attachments and a hydraulically driven, variable-speed engine fan. The variable-speed fan features an electronic thermostat that constantly monitors engine coolant and transmission oil temperatures.
