Focus on wheel loaders: 5 impressive features of compact loaders
The smallest wheel loader series from Liebherr features an impressively sophisticated machine design, a high degree of flexibility and optimum safety. The manoeuvrable and reliable machines perform well on construction sites, in urban applications and road construction, and in horticultural and landscaping applications. Find out more about the features that make the smallest Liebherr wheel loaders so practical.
The L 504 Compact, for example, is less than 2.5 metres tall.
1. Compact design
Thanks to their low height, even the narrowest of passageways are no obstacle. The compact design allows for a low centre of gravity, making it possible to handle heavy payloads, and providing maximum stability and tipping safety.
With its variety of attachments, the compact loader is a powerful and profitable all-rounder.
2. Versatile
The compact loaders are the ideal machines for all areas of application such as horticulture and landscaping, urban applications and construction sites of every kind. A diverse range of working attachments increases their versatility. With the hydraulic Solidlink quick coupling system, the attachment can be changed straight from the operator’s cab at the press of a button.
The powerful lifting gear arms increase the performance and versatility of the compact loader.
3. Powerful lifting gear
The smallest wheel loader series has robust lifting arms with z-bar kinematics for higher productivity in all applications. The conical shape of these arms is particularly notable: This allows for excellent visibility of the attachment and loading material.
The spacious and ergonomically designed cab provides the perfect conditions for comfortable and productive work.
4. Optimum visibility and comfortable cab
Expansive windows stretching right down to foot level ensure optimum visibility in all directions, particularly of the attachment and the wheel loader articulation area. Practical storage areas and clearly arranged controls also increase the comfort of the operator’s cab. The simple and intuitive operation of the compact loaders also makes it easy to swap operators.
The speeder variant makes it possible to cover longer distances faster.
5. Even faster with a “speeder”
To complete jobs even faster, the L 506 and L 508 compact loaders are also available in speeder variants (30 km/h). The upper speed is particularly useful when covering longer distances, for example when travelling from one construction site to another.
