Featuring a Tier IV certified Deutz 120-horsepower engine and 4,200 pounds of rated operating capacity, the 4200V an increase of 21.7 horsepower and 200 pounds in operating capacity over the brands’ previous models (4000V) in this size range.

The large skid steer loader comes standard with cab heat and air-conditioning; 14-pin connector for easy attachment use; two-speed for travel around the job site; and Mustang’s patented hydraglideTM for a smoother ride and less material spillage from the attachment. A vertical lift path of almost 12 feet allows for excellent dumping and loading performance.
The 4200V skid steer is configured to be a true tool carrier, coming standard with the features needed to operate attachments such as mulching heads, cold planers, rock wheels and many more. High-flow auxiliary hydraulics are standard equipment and offer up to 41 gallons per minute for optimal performance. Five easily accessible auxiliary hydraulic lines, with flat-face couplers, are available on the front of the machine near the operator’s station for easy access.
The 4200V cab is spacious and comfortable for the operator with a suspension seat and pilot joystick controls. Excellent visibility is possible through a large, domed glass front door and wide side windows that can be opened for added ventilation or talking to co-workers. A foot throttle or hand throttle allows the operator to easily increase travel speed or machine functions. An optional rear-view backup camera provides increased visibility. A radio with hands-free Bluetooth allows the operator to make calls or easily stream music from another device for a customized environment.
