OverviewHere’s a species that’s unlike any other. It’s the CASE Minotaur™ DL550. True, this beast has the silhouette of a compact track loader. But you’ll see it’s packed full of pure, dozer DNA. For proof, check out the numbers: 114 hp; more than 25,000 lbs. of drawbar pull; more than 12,000 lbs. of breakout force; and 5,500 lb. rated operating capacity (50 percent of tipping load). With that kind of muscle, along with the integrated C-frame dozer blade, standard enhanced high-flow hydraulics and skid steer-style coupler, operators can easily switch out attachments, use larger buckets and power larger implements. There are dozer-style controls and grips, along with the ability to switch to ISO controls. Optional integrated rear ripper available. Three track options including two steel track widths. Optional ride-smoothing EZ Trac available. Load. Doze. Dominate.
