Ron Topping I work in rock and clay constantly. My RT65 undercarriage is just fine. Has 1135 hours with all original rollers and tracks. Tracks are still 60+% left lol...
durtwurx77 everyone who says they are useless in certain conditions, never owned one. They just tow the line. Literally. One thing about an asv, they are useful in ALL conditions
My dad and brother (who has a neck problem) are getting a VT70 Max, the first Max in Australia. Thanks to your video for helping with that decision. Sick of seeing my lil bro critically injured all the time. THANK YOU!!!
I think the machine looks beautiful!! I am a concrete contractor and my local dealer DIDNOT recommend me an ASV, they said those machines are not for concrete contractors. I got an estimate anyway. I got an estimate for the RT75 HD Max-series high flow ride control $102.200 I think it's over price, bobcat t66 $78k 5-link clear windows high Flow touch screen mustang 185RT $64k
Does the bobcat or mustang have anti track derailment guarantees? Do they also have the most comfortable ride on the market with true 4 season tracks? Do their tracks have the same low ground pressure that the ASV does? I get the price is much higher but it's important to consider if the machines you're comparing are actually similar or if they're actually different enough that the prices shouldn't be compared.
I'm concrete contractor also and I've used asv's since 2001. Rc 50 to be exact. Very powerful for there size, no problems ever with undercarriage. Very dependable. I've read a lot of bullcrap about asv's in forums and such but I've got the experience that says otherwise.
The max series is what i’ve been wanting for years. I’ll propably get 2 x rt65 next year to replace my rt60s. Too bad they dropped the rt60s, would have loved to have rt60s max series instead 👍
Only improvement I might suggest in future design is to make door open up like Takeuchi or on mini excavators. Although taking door off is a nice option, nobody really wants to do that & risk sitting a very expensive glass door off to the side who knows where.
Looking at all the competition. These look nice. Wish the door was an over the head type. Pain in the but to remove door a keep in a safe place. Very nice to lift door over head line a Kobota A then close it if needed.
I have a Terex PT100 GF. Been thinking about a new 120, when are they going to change the 120's? Any more power and flow in the future? That would probably be the final push to buy. Thanks!
The arm stops slamming down is the biggest issue I've had, besides the heater stop working, and needing the blower replaced. The slamming is a huge issue, its rattling the machine apart.
I am looking at buying an ASV RT 65 or a Kubota SVL 64 for cleaning chicken barns and work around the farm (moving pallets, snow removal, power broom, air blowing, dirt removal etc.) Do you have a recommendation between these two machines?
I am doing a fair amount of mastication work and still unclear if the maxx cab is a smart choice. I have 1500hrs in a seat of ASV’s, but don’t want to break those beautiful windows. I would love the visibility, but….?
Just wondering how an RT-75 Max would work for dairy farm use. I've heard that you don't want to put tracks on concrete. I have a lot of situations where I could use tracks but having a smaller farm, I don't want to invest in two machines...one with tires and another with tracks. I'm certainly not on concrete all of the time but cleaning lots and pens would put me on the concrete but I'd also use it with a brush mower, digging, plowing snow, picking up large bales, and sometimes operating in mud.
It also depends on how you run on concrete. If it's on concrete daily and you rip turns hard you'll obviously have more wear than if you turn more gently. ASV does have some videos that show how their tracks perform compared to others. It almost looks like the thing just floats through the mud bog
ponchhunt Kubota engines were in Bobcat machines before Doosan bought them. Yanmar makes engines in this size class...Deere is running them in their skids and track machines.
Hi Scott, the door on MAX-Series machines can be easily unplugged and removed. It's fully operable with the door off and you don't have to bypass any safety switch.
Need more dealers. Sounds great. I never heard of ASV until I watched u-tube video of contractor going over 5 worst CTL. He liked ASV.
So excited to see the Max-Series debut! Our team back in Minnesota did a phenomenal job!
Does Asv offer different pattern controls... ISO and H pattern?
ASV. the most underrated piece of construction equipment made. Best undercarriage in the industry. Period.
Useless in Massachusetts, to much rock undercarriage would not last

Ron Topping ever own one?

No I run Bobcats. 2. T595. 1 s570. Thinking about buying vt70 max series. Have bad back . I am sure asv undercarriage would be silky smooth ride

Hey Adam, just wondering how the VT70 was going? Any drama with it?
How does that help with the neck discomfort?

I miss using one with my previous company, trying to get my new one to invest in one to move materials faster
I love watching these machines work. The Upstate Brush Control boys use these and speak very highly of them. My personal fave is the JCB though.
Looking forward to evaluating these changes. The cab on the ASV has always been the weakest link.

Really enjoyed this video! Lots of good information to think about
Nice track loader..👍 looks like great visibility from the cab.
GREAT video.

Finally doesn’t look generic
I am looking at buying an ASV RT 65 or a Kubota SVL 64 for cleaning chicken barns and work around the farm (moving pallets, snow removal, power broom, air blowing, dirt removal etc.) Do you have a recommendation between these two machines?
Kubota definitely will retain value and is physically stronger
Not as comfortable ride though

Anyone know what the current 2022 MSRP base price is for the RT75 HD?

I believe you would fine on concrete, just leave layer of dirt , hay or something on concrete. This would enhance turning and decrease track wear
It also depends on how you run on concrete. If it's on concrete daily and you rip turns hard you'll obviously have more wear than if you turn more gently. ASV does have some videos that show how their tracks perform compared to others. It almost looks like the thing just floats through the mud bog
How does the new cycle do on sloops can u cut a 3/1 without tracks coming off
They have a track anti-derailment guarantee as part of their warranty. No one else has that in the industry.
That’s awesome I have been waiting for this track derailment before I purchased one it’s about time good little machine good job
ASV can ride on its side without the tracks being in issue
Did they bring the throttle pedal back in the VT70?
They did. The hand dial is standard, but you can now opt for a dial/pedal combo.
How about a deceleration pedal?????
I wonder if it can hold up in chicken house work there is no other skidsteer on the market that can
Does anybody have a VT 75 thats slamming the bucket stops?
I want one
Good move , had the worst cab on the market
I thought the max horsepower for not having a DEF system was 26
Under 75 hp no def, under 25 hp no emissions , 26 to 75 hp egr system and exhaust filter. Over 75 hp def ( exhaust fluid system
Bobcat, case, jcb, wacker, Has nothing but catalyst and egr , no regeneration up to 75hp
Why Deutz and Cummins if Yanmar owns them?
Those were there before yanmar acquired them.
ponchhunt Kubota engines were in Bobcat machines before Doosan bought them. Yanmar makes engines in this size class...Deere is running them in their skids and track machines.
Snorelacks I’m sure they’ll move that way. It’s only been a year since they were bought. I bet it won’t be long before we see it.
Until they market an easily removable door, it's all nonsense.
Hi Scott, the door on MAX-Series machines can be easily unplugged and removed. It's fully operable with the door off and you don't have to bypass any safety switch.
@@reganmeyer6661 I stand fully corrected.
@@scottmcquarrie7295 You can see a quick snippet of the door removal (the unplugging) at 12:02 in the video.
Forget deutz engines,Stick with japanese or cummins period.Why you guys not runing KUBOTA or YANMAR,cummins is good.Deutz,owned them,unreliable.
