I think more of the counterweight has been put on the inside of the machine, to increase visibility to the rear. Ask the dealer if you can get a orange cast iron weight mounted to the back of the V519. It can really increase lift capacity.
EU version TL26.60 is the same as V519. Another model...
These machines are though things. We have a Bobcat T2566 (European version of V518) from 2009. Difference between V518 and our T2566 is colorscheme, the boom has 3 foot more lift height and a bit more lifting power. Doesn't have any problems with spending some winter months dragging itself...
