At only 8 ft. 9 in. (2.46 m) high, the 21F offers a more compact design that provides greater stability and leverage as well as a higher bucket dump height than previous generations. For greater versatility, it’s available with Z-Bar or Tool Carrier / Parallel Lift linkage and is compatible with skid steer attachments. This compact-yet-powerful model also meets emissions regulations with a maintenance-free Tier 4 emissions solution – another way the F Series helps you do more while requiring less.
Productivity
With a lower center of gravity, the 21F has improved lifting power and breakout force. The suspension has been enhanced with an oscillating rear axle that works independent of the cab for greater operator comfort and load control; an optional limited-slip differential provides on-demand traction in loose or uneven terrain. With 29% greater standard auxiliary hydraulic flow than the E Series, you have more power for attachments and a proportional loader control gives operators greater command. Plus, Connect Under Pressure (CUP) manifolds and a hydraulic coupler make switch out quick and easy.
Fuel Efficiency
The 21F features a maintenance-free Tier 4 emissions solution that avoids regeneration. No regeneration downtime, no Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) to replace, no extreme exhaust temperatures, no after-treatment fluids to add. Just get in and go. It’s the best match for versatile, on-the-go machines of this size.
Comfort and Visibility
F Series cab offers more space, greater all-around visibility, and an intuitive control interface to simplify operation. And with Creep Speed, Return-to-Dig and Ride Control™, air suspension seatand Bluetooth radio options, it’s even easier to maximize productivity. LED worklights help keep production levels high and safe, even in low-light conditions.
Serviceability
With a tilt-up hood and friendlier access to daily checkpoints, the F Series Compact Wheel Loaders were redesigned to simplify serviceability. Radiators, filters, hydraulics and the engine are all easily accessible so routine maintenance can be done in a matter of minutes.
