Bobcat TL30.70 Specifications

Basic Information

The Bobcat TL30.70 telehandler is a compact yet powerful R-Series material-handling machine engineered to deliver lifting versatility, excellent maneuverability, and robust reliability in construction, agriculture, industrial yards, logistics environments, and rental applications. With a rated lifting capacity of 3,000 kg (6,614 lb) and a maximum lift height of approximately 7.0 meters (23 ft), the TL30.70 provides an optimal balance of capacity, reach, stability, and compact dimensions suitable for pallet handling, bale stacking, bulk loading, and precise placement tasks in confined or open work environments.

Equipped with the Bobcat D34 turbocharged diesel engine, the TL30.70 offers modern emissions compliance, efficient fuel consumption, and dependable torque delivery at low engine speeds. The telehandler’s hydrostatic transmission ensures smooth inching, stable load handling, and forward/reverse transitions without mechanical shock.

The permanent 4WD system, combined with three steering modes and a reinforced chassis, provides strong traction and terrain adaptability. A spacious R-Series cab improves operator comfort through excellent visibility, ergonomic controls, and enhanced HVAC performance.

The TL30.70 uses Bobcat’s Power Quick-Tach system, supporting a wide variety of attachments such as pallet forks, buckets, grapples, bale spears, sweepers, and hydraulic tools. With its advanced hydraulic system, stable boom geometry, robust structural design, and modern operator-focused features, the TL30.70 delivers versatile performance with low maintenance requirements.

Engine Specs

The TL30.70 is powered by the Bobcat D34 turbocharged diesel engine, designed for telehandler applications where consistent torque, fuel economy, and reliability are essential. This engine is electronically managed, emissions-compliant, and optimized for low-rpm performance during repeated lift cycles, hydraulic tool operation, and travel.
