Takeuchi TL130 expert review

Reviewed by Jed H. on April 30, 2026

Overview

The Takeuchi TL130 (2000–2009) is a compact track loader designed for loading, grading, landscaping, backfilling, and soft-ground site work. It delivers 49.96 kilowatt gross power, 3,051.77 kg breakout force, and low 0.34 bar ground pressure, making it a useful older option for buyers who need strong bucket force and tracked stability.

Expert rating: 3 stars

Pros Strong breakout force, good dump height, and low ground pressure.

Cons Older model with modest lifting capacity and higher used-condition risk.

Performance & Efficiency

The 4TNV98 engine produces 49.96 kilowatt of gross power and 245.4 Nm of torque, giving the TL130 useful output for loading, grading, backfilling, and site cleanup. Its 3,051.77 kg breakout force, 734.82 kg lifting capacity, 3.05 m dump height, 68.13 lpm hydraulic pump flow, and 0.34 bar ground pressure make it practical for light to medium tracked-loader work.

In Comparison

Cat 249: Newer-feeling option with stronger market support and better resale confidence.
Cat 257: More established compact track loader with stronger used-market demand.
Takeuchi TL130: Older and simpler, but strong on breakout force, dump height, and stable tracked performance.

Final Verdict

Rated 3 stars, the Takeuchi TL130 is a fair compact track loader within the AED 65,000–110,000 range for buyers who need affordable tracked-loader capability with strong breakout force, provided the undercarriage, hydraulics, engine, and service history are checked carefully.
