Performance
Conventional travel gear
• Longitudinally mounted diesel
engine moves the center of gravity
further forward.
• Much more additional
counterweight is needed to maintain
stability and to increase the tipping
load.
• This leads to high operating weight
and poor visibility.
An all-purpose loader
• The choice between parallel (P) and
Z-bar linkage means that the loader
can always be confi gured to suit
the customer’s specifi c tasks: P for
industrial use, Z for conventional
material handling.
The Liebherr driveline allows for optimal positioning of the diesel engine. In this wheel
loader class the diesel engine is rotated 90° and mounted transverse to the direction of
travel. Compared to conventionally driven wheel loaders, the operating weight is much
lower, the tipping load is higher, and more material can be moved each operating hour.
Higher performance, lower weight
Higher productivity The combination of the Liebherr driveline and the unique
position of the diesel engine allows for higher tipping loads at low
operating weight. This leads to signifi cantly higher productivity
since there is no need for unnecessary counterweight.
Ultra modern Liebherr driveline
Innovative technology Tractive force and speed are automatically adjusted to the
requirements of the operator without shifting. There is no need
for a mechanical reverse gear because the travel direction is
changed hydraulically.
Flexibility puts them ahead
An all-purpose loader The parallel linkage is available as an alternative to the standard
Z-bar linkage, at no additional cost. The parallel linkage features
a parallel guide arrangement and high torque in the upper lifting
range - ideal properties for larger and heavier attachments
as well as transporting heavy loads. With its parallel linkage
Liebherr offers a continuous and uniform solution for industrial
operations over the entire range of all-round loaders. With their
compact design, Liebherr wheel loaders can maneuver quickly
and effi ciently - the best choice for high handling capacities.
Power All-Rounders
for industry The new generation Tier 4i all-round wheel loader models have
been specifi cally developed for industrial use in terms of their
performance and stability and ensure even higher productivity
and effi ciency. In addition to increasing the engine performance,
the tipping loads of the whole range have been increased.
Furthermore the steel structure has been reinforced and the
hydraulic system‘s performance enhanced. That, together with
the wide range of equipment available makes these all-round
loaders the perfect solution for all industrial uses.
