Not sure of your question, but Power Trac makes and originates from Hydra Power

Close, but they don't look like the hydra Power machines that I have seen. I think Hydra Power / CLA focuses on narrower seam mining; all of the units that I have seen have the operator transverse to the axis of the loader, fully enclosed by the machine with a very low ROPS.

Killer trencher though, right?

Something like a 10,000 pound lift, too!

Wasn’t it called lo trac?

65 HP Deutz, same as 1460?

65 HP Deutz, same as 1460?

That's what I assume; I have always assumed that mining applications is the reason that Power-Trac avoids turbos on the Deutz engines, trying to lower the explosion risk. Non-turbo Deutz air cooled engines run very cool, with almost nowhere that is much above 250F, so pretty safe for use around combustible materials. In the Hydro Trac machines I do wonder what the alternators look like.

All the best,
