Kioti Tractor’s newly developed Flow+ technology delivers an advancement in hydraulic performance for its compact construction equipment lineup.
Now available, the Flow+ TL750 compact track loaders and SL750 skid steer enhance hydraulic capabilities for operators, who need more power than standard flow, without the excessive cost or fuel consumption of full high-flow systems.
“At Kioti, we’re committed to developing solutions that maximize the performance of our equipment,” said Justin Moe, Product Manager for Compact Construction at Kioti.
“Flow+ bridges the gap between standard and high-flow systems, providing operators with the hydraulic power needed to handle more demanding tasks, while improving engine functionality, fuel savings, and overall versatility.”
Designed for light to medium-duty hydraulic requirements, Flow+ allows operators to seamlessly run attachments – like rotary cutters, trenchers, and snow blowers – while supporting standard-flow attachments for everyday tasks. This ability makes the machine more versatile across job types.
Flow+ optimizes performance and long-term durability by providing more power than standard flow systems, while reducing heat and wear compared to high-flow alternatives. It enhances productivity by enabling quick attachment changes and minimizing job downtime.
As well, its optimized hydraulic power management conserves fuel, extending operational hours without unnecessary consumption.
Built with a five-port coupler block, dedicated Flow+ tube lines and valve, and an added gear pump, the system ensures seamless hydraulic operation.
With Flow+, operators can tackle a wider range of job-site applications, while keeping their compact loaders running smoothly and efficiently.
The new Flow+ models offer a significant upgrade in hydraulic performance compared to the standard models. While the standard models operate at 3,335 psi with a hydraulic flow of 82.9 litres per minute and 41.80 hp, the Flow+ models operate at a lower pressure of 2,900 psi but provide a higher hydraulic flow of 128.8 litres per minute and deliver 65.7 hp.
This increased flow and horsepower in the Flow+ models translates to greater attachment versatility, improved operational efficiency, and the ability to handle more intensive applications with ease.
