SERVICE FILL CAPACITIES

BRAKING SYSTEM
Service brake: reliable dual braking system, acting upon all four wheels.
- Wear-free, hydrostalic inching brake.
- Central friction brake, actuated via “inch/brake pedal”. First stage of pedal application actuates the inching facility, the last third of the pedal application applies the central friction brake.
Parking brake: central drum brake, acting upon all four wheels.
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Thermostatically controlled oil circuit with integrated cooling system and electrically switched fan. Hydraulic control valve: double-acting control valve with a three-spool system, with primary and secondary pressure valves.
- Lifting function
- Tilting function
- Optional additional function for hydraulic QC: lock, neutral, unlock
Preparation for operating hydraulic attachments with this function is available as an option.
Hydraulic oil filter: main stream filter cartridge with 10 um filtration in the return line. Suction filter for the drive assembly with 10 pm filtration. The filters can be replaced without emptying the tank.

STEERING
Hydraulic steering. Central articulating-oscillating joint with damping effect.
- Steering pump: gear-type pump.
- Steering cylinder: 1 double-acting steering cylinder.

An Allrounder from Zettelmeyer: as Versatile as your Requirements!
The ZL 602 is not only a top performer of classic earth-moving tasks – it has much more to offer! Select from a wide range of attachments! With quick-change coupling, the machine is equipped for your job within seconds
- all controlled from the operator’s seat. Expensive idle times are eliminated on construction sites, farms, gardening, landscaping or municipal jobs maximising use of your investment, and, irrespective of summer or winter –

It’s always Zettelmeyer Season!

ZL 602 – Traction in Abundance!
The robust portal axles make the machine highly maneuverable and mobile in extremely difficult terrain. With 100 % differential locks and portal axles front and rear, the ZL 602 makes easy work of heavy ground conditions. The slanted engine cover gives superb visibility, and the low-maintenance articulating-oscillating joint ensures excellent maneuverability in tight quarters and uneven terrain. On long hauls or when frequent and quick site changes are required, a ZL 602 SL, with its additional speed is just the right machine for the job.

The Lift-arm System adds Power to Digging Cycles!
In every application, you can take advantage of the proven Z-bar loader linkage.It shows extraordinary breakout force at the face, and excellent lifting force with the loading fork. The curvature of the lift arm is designed to cater for larger\ trucks both in dump height and reach for symmetric loading.
Extra Comfort for Increased Operator Performance
A suitable ergonomic environment is of paramount importance for good operator performance. The ZL 602 has a clearly designed cab interior.
Operator Comfort…
- Spacious, detachable cab
- Reliable heating and ventilation system
- 4-way adjustable operator’s seat
… for smooth Working Cycles
- Clearly designed dashboard
- Audio-visual warning system
- Single lever control for hydraulics and differential lock
- Single pedal for inching and \braking

Hydrostatic Drive – Constant Power you can rely on!
The hydrostatic drive maintains a constant drawbar pull even when the working hydraulics are at maximum pressure. The automatic drive allows the operator to concentrate fully on the job. Gears can be shifted under full load in work, cycles remain smooth and productivity stays constantly high. The hydrostatic drive serves as the main braking system – a further advantage, as this brake is virtually wear-free.
Exhaust Emissions ZL 602

Exhaust emissions of ZL 602 are considerably lower than those required by ECE R49 limits
The Power Source: Environmentally- friendly Performance
The ZL 602 is equipped with the latest series Deutz 1011 engine. The result leaves nothing to be desired. High performance, economical fuel consumption along with low acoustic and low exhaust emissions. Therefore the ZL 602 has been honoured with the blue environment seal “environmentally-friendly – low noise”. Transverse engine allows easy access to major components. Daily maintenance and servicing are made simple by eye-level checkpoints. Resultant time-savings leave you with cash in hand.

How do I turn off the differential lock indicator light on a Zettelmeyer ZL602?
On the Zettelmeyer ZL602, the differential lock is designed to provide 100% locking in both axles for maximum traction. According to the product documentation, the differential lock is typically controlled via a single lever control located in the operator's cab.
To turn off the differential lock and extinguish the indicator light, please try the following:
Note: The ZL602 features hydraulically operated locks; if the light does not turn off, there may be a residual pressure issue in the hydraulic control circuit for the axles.
