Comprising eleven models, running from the smallest DL200-7, through to the top-of-the-range DL580-7 model, the DL-7 range is designed to provide easier and faster loading with maximum bucket capacities from 2.0 to 6.4 m3, providing increased productivity for a very wide range of material-handling applications.
These include the transport and delivery of soil, sand, aggregates, and other materials in industry, as well as recycling, waste, construction, demolition, mining, and quarrying. Develon also offers a wide choice of options to provide more work tools for a better match with applications, further increasing output.
One of the most important changes in the DL-7 range is the new parallel lift system now adopted as standard in the six smallest models from the DL200-7 to the DL380-7.
These wheeled loaders now feature a parallel lift system with electro-hydraulic compensation, specifically designed to maintain the horizontal alignment of the pallet forks during lifting. This advanced system automatically adjusts the forks to stay level as they move up and down, ensuring loads remain stable and securely balanced. Ideal for precise pallet handling, Parallel Lift simplifies loading and unloading operations and reduces the risk of spillage or damage. This enhancement not only improves safety but also increases productivity, allowing operators to handle materials with greater confidence and efficiency in any working environment.
Electric joystick steering integrated on the armrest, a proven feature on large Develon wheeled loaders is now available for the smallest models from the DL200-7 to the DL280-7.
Electric joystick steering helps operators to keep their concentration and reduces stress. The comfortable electric joystick allows the operator to drive their machine more easily, especially in repetitive tasks and tight spaces. Designed to give the operator more precise control with a shorter lever stroke, resulting in less fatigue, the sensitivity of the ergonomic joystick control can be set and altered according to operator preferences using the SmartTouch touchscreen monitor. User-friendly and easy to read in all conditions, the touchscreen provides all the important settings and information the operator needs in one place.
Another upgrade for all the models in the DL-7 range is a comprehensive Full LED Lighting Pack designed to improve visibility, safety and operator comfort. This new package includes advanced LED work lights, which provide powerful illumination for optimum visibility during night shifts or in low light conditions, ensuring tasks are completed safely and efficiently.
The LED road lights add an extra layer of safety when transporting materials, improving visibility on roads and in busy working areas.
In addition to the lighting enhancements, this package also includes heated and electrically adjustable door mirrors. The heating function ensures clear vision in cold or frosty conditions by preventing fog and ice build-up. The power adjustment allows the operator to set the optimum angle without leaving the cab, increasing comfort and ease of operation.
With the full LED lighting package in place, Develon wheeled loaders can tackle and operate in any environment with improved safety, enhanced functionality and greater operator control.
Inside the cab, there is an option on all models of a new seat with both heating and ventilation. The seat offers fully adjustable horizontal and vertical suspension settings and a pneumatic lumbar function as standard. There is a 3-point safety belt with alarm icons on the SmartTouch touchscreen monitor and on the gauge panel, which offers a clear layout and anti-reflective glass.
DL-7 wheeled loaders offer significantly enhanced operating comfort, an enhanced steering system and advanced electronic controls. Using the new Develon Smart Key system on the control panel in the cab, the operator can start the machine using a keyless device, helping to prevent machine theft. The Smart Key system provides remote door control, door lock and unlock, door release, searching and other functions. The control panel also includes two USB sockets.
DL-7 wheeled loaders have smooth and responsive hydraulics and auxiliary hydraulic connections. All of the newly updated DL-7 wheeled loaders are equipped as standard with a 3rd spool valve with settable flow and detent function, providing a constant flow for hydraulically driven attachments. Operators can easily and comfortably control hydraulic attachments via the proportional switch on the joystick.
The DL200-7, DL220-7, DL250-7 and DL280-7 models now have both quick coupler and 3rd spool piping as standard, with these new features optional on the larger models.
