Improved Operating Capacity

Gehl refined the new E-Series loaders to reduce sound levels and improve performance, yielding what Gehl calls "some of the lowest operator sound levels in the industry." Operating capacity increased 150 pounds, to 1,650 in the 4640T. Gehl says Poclain's refined radial-piston drive motors enhance reliability and loader and attachment performance while reducing sound levels. New muffler design and air intake also reduce sound.
