New Liebherr Stereoloaders® as general-purpose machines in the fight against snow and ice

Amongst municipalities and service providers, Liebherr Stereoloaders® have an outstanding reputation when it comes to demanding winter related tasks. Both of the recently introduced L 514 and L 518 Liebherr Stereoloaders® live up to this reputation. With their new Z-unit bar linkage, they can work reliably in the battle against snow and ice with a variety of tool attachments. As “Speeders”, the new models can achieve a top speed of 40 km/h. Thanks to this and other innovations, the Liebherr Stereoloaders® are an economical alternative to conventional snow clearing equipment. Use of the versatile wheel loader as a winter service machine reduces its down time in winter. Operators can thus benefit from increased productivity.
