Bobcat’s TL619 telehandler gives operators the flexibility to accomplish a variety of demanding tasks.
Featuring a redesigned comfort cab, turbo-charged engine and easy-to-access service points, the TL619 combines power and nimbleness to create a lifting, stacking, backfilling and reaching machine matched for the job.
The TL619 has a load capacity of 5,500 pounds and a lift height of 19 feet. With an optional, add-on counterweight, operators can extend their telehandler’s rated capacity throughout the lift cycle.
The advanced Tier 4, turbo-charged engine delivers powerful, high-torque performance, and achieves emissions compliance without the use of a diesel particulate filter or selective catalyst reduction. The telehandler’s engine is equipped with reliable cold weather starting among other features.
The telehandler features five operation modes:
- ECO mode allows the operator to maintain hydraulic performance without using the engine’s full power – working with lower rpm, less noise and lower fuel consumption.
- Smooth Drive mode is for maneuvering across jobsites with mild acceleration and deceleration while carrying loads.
- Dynamic Drive mode increases responsiveness of the telehandler’s acceleration and deceleration for traveling between tasks.
- Flex Drive mode allows the operator to manage the engine speed independently from travel speed.
- Advanced Attachment Control mode allows for full auxiliary hydraulic performance.
The TL619 was designed to incorporate sleek and efficient Bobcat R-Series styling and enhanced visibility. The low-profile boom sits below operator eye level to provide an open view of the surroundings. The redesigned engine basket sits lower for increased line of sight. Front, top and rear window wipers help keep windows free of debris and precipitation. Multiple mirrors on the operator’s left and right provide added visibility when working in confined areas. An optional rear mirror kit, rear view camera kit and boom work light kit also are available.
The redesigned cab builds upon the Bobcat tradition of operator-centered design with high visibility, excellent ergonomics, a comfortable suspension seat, efficient HVAC system, and an easy-to-read, automotive-style instrumentation panel that Bobcat equipment operators will find familiar across R-Series machines. Bobcat telehandler cabs are designed and tested to Roll-Over Protection Structure (ROPS) and Falling Object Protective Structure (FOPS) level II standards.
The TL619 is built with a robust box-welded frame for enhanced rigidity - plus a low-center of gravity for optimal stability. The shielded bottom plate protects vital components, and the engine, cooling system and critical components are well-protected within the center of the chassis, ensuring minimal wear and tear caused by jobsite obstacles or harsh terrain.
Thanks to the Bob-Tach mounting system, operators can share select attachments with other Bobcat equipment for enhanced versatility. From pallet forks and buckets to grapples and snow pushers, operators can conquer a variety of tasks without the need for specialty attachments.
