ASV RC-85 Loader
The RC-85: Unmatched Balance of Power & Agility

The new ASV RC-85 delivers exceptional performance thanks to its careful balance of weight and power. It’s the same size as our flagship RC-100, but with less weight and an 86 hp diesel engine. The result is a great combination of power and agility, making this full-size loader the best solution for tough applications where you need maximum efficiency. With a 3,400-lb rated operating capacity, it's also excellent for many loading and material handling jobs.

Quick Response, Fast Cycle Times
The RC-85 is powered by the Perkins 1104C-44 N.A. diesel engine – a 4.4 liter, 4-cylinder engine with high output, low emissions and low sound. Machine weight has been carefully matched to the horsepower rating. As a result you get exceptionally quick response and fast cycle times. With Posi-Power™ Control (PPC ™) an integral part of the powertrain, you can work the RC-85 to its fullest potential as it automatically shifts the hydrostat to match available horsepower. It’s virtually impossible to stall the engine.

The RC-85 features the one of the most advanced hydraulic systems available. Tracks are directly driven by single-speed drive motors, with travel speeds up to 6 mph. The hydraulic system provides up to 38 gpm to the standard high flow auxiliary circuit on demand or 20 gpm to the low flow circuit. The RC-85’s load-sensing hydraulic system is highly efficient, producing up to 10% more hydraulic horsepower compared to less efficient systems. As a result, you get more done and you get it done faster.
RC-85 Features Summary

  • Torsion Axle suspension for smooth ride and stable handling.
  • Posi-Power Control™ (PPC™) system.
  • A Perkins 1104C-44 N.A. 4.4 liter, 4-cylinder diesel engine produces 86 hp / 64 kW and peak torque of 222 ft-lb / 302 Nm.
  • Lift height of 125".
  • New tilt-up ROPS/FOPS canopy for quick access to the hydraulic system.
  • Easy service and minimal maintenance required.
  • 6,800 lb. tipping load.
Advanced Rubber Track Undercarriage
The RC-85 was designed from the ground up to run on a suspended rubber track undercarriage with no compromises to machine width, ground clearance and machine balance. You get maximum traction and a smoother ride.

Forty-two wheeled contact points spread the machine weight out over 18-inch wide rubber tracks, exerting only 3.3 psi ground pressure. With that much track on the ground, you crawl over the most fragile ground with minimal surface disturbance. You can also work productively in soft mud and snow.

Smooth and Quiet Ride
No steel inside the tracks means the RC-85 is smooth, quiet and very efficient. The internal positive drive system uses hydrostatically-driven sprockets with free-turning rollers to drive the track. This unique system minimizes friction between drive components and the track. As a result, travel speeds are much higher than on systems with steel sprockets and rubber-bonded steel tracks. Tracks and drive components last longer, too. RC-85 tracks come with an exclusive 1,000 hour warranty.

Suspension of the undercarriage helps maximize contact with the ground for better traction and stability. It also gives a much smoother ride for the operator, improves load-retention and is easier on the machine, too

Comfortable Operation
The RC-85’s operator station has more features and built-in comfort than ever before. New joystick controls have integrated hydraulic and electric attachment controls for precise, low-effort operation. A full spectrum of gauges and switches are conveniently located for easy view and reach. Safety-related features include full ROPS/ FOPS canopy, lap bar, comfortable seat belt and brake. An enclosed cab with sound insulation is also available.

An air conditioner/heater option can be integrated into the operator station with an automotive-like finish, eliminating exterior compressors and space-robbing blowers.

Tilt-up Service Access
A tilt-up ROPS/FOPS canopy makes access to the hydraulic system quick and easy. Service to the engine and cooling package is through a tilt-up rear hood.
