Doosan DL250 High Lift wheel loader ideal for loading
light material into high-sided trucks and hoppers
WEST FARGO, N.D., January 2011 — The DL250 High Lift wheel loader from Doosan is
designed to load stockpiled, light materials such as grain, fertilizer, coal or waste into highsided trucks or hoppers.
Equipped with a 3.4-cubic-yard bucket, the DL250 High Lift has a dump height of 10 feet 9
inches with the arms fully raised and the bucket at a 45-degree angle. Height at the bucket
pivot point is 14 feet 3 inches.
The DL250 High Lift features a standard bucket breakout force of 27,337 pounds. Static tipping
load at full turn is 21,398 pounds. Turning radius at bucket edge is 19 feet 9 inches at the
maximum steering angle of 40 degrees. Axle oscillation is ± 11 inches.
A Tier 3 compliant, 6-cylinder Doosan DL06 diesel engine provides 162 net horsepower. The
advanced engine design features a high-pressure common rail direct fuel injection system and
electronic control that results in increased power and torque.
Four forward speed ranges provide maximum speeds of 4.1, 7.1, 13.9 and 21.1 mph. Three
reverse speed ranges offer maximum speeds of 4.3, 7.7 and 14.6 mph. Depending on the
application, the operator can choose between Standard and Economy working modes for
either maximum productivity or minimum fuel consumption.
Like all Doosan wheel loaders, the DL250 High Lift features a full powershift transmission with
manual, automatic and semiautomatic (with “kick down” for first gear) modes. Transmission
and engine operation can be easily diagnosed by connecting a laptop computer. Standard
front and rear axle limited slip differentials ensure positive traction in wet or soft conditions.
Hydraulically controlled, multi-plate wet disc brakes and dual brake circuits provide positive
braking power, and brakes are self-adjusting for longer life. A spring-applied/hydraulically
released (SAHR) parking brake is mounted on the transmission to prevent the loader from
rolling after engine shutdown.
An optional electric-powered emergency steering system backs up the hydraulic power
steering system in case of a malfunction and a safety device prevents starting the engine when
not in neutral.

The DL250 High Lift provides operators with outstanding visibility and low cabin sound levels.
A roomy cabin, powerful heating and air conditioning system, tilting/telescoping steering
column, ample storage space and a comfortable seat also help to reduce operator fatigue. An
optional load isolation system provides smoother travel with a loaded bucket.
All routine maintenance on the DL250 High Lift can be performed from ground level.
Centralized hydraulic check ports and easily accessible drain valves for engine oil and coolant
simplify routine maintenance. Remote greasing lubrication ports allow front pins, steering
cylinders and the rear support assembly to be lubed from the outside of the machine.
The transmission oil filler pipe is located near the articulation joint for easy access, and sight
gauges for hydraulic oil and coolant levels allow easy daily checks while reducing the risk of
contaminants entering the systems. In addition, the radiator fan can be reversed from the cabin
to quickly clean out the radiator and hydraulic oil cooler in dusty environments.
Other options include a single lever control for travel functions and front-mounted attachments
and a hydraulically driven, variable-speed engine fan. The variable-speed fan features an
electronic thermostat that constantly monitors engine coolant and transmission oil
temperatures.
