This compact wheel loader delivers exceptional maneuverability in confined spaces with its innovative Articulation Plus™ steering system, combining articulated frame steering with rear-wheel steering for a tighter turning radius than conventional articulated loaders. Powered by a 71 hp Tier 4 Yanmar diesel engine, it provides the perfect balance of power and fuel efficiency for demanding applications. The near-parallel lift path ensures stable load carrying while the spacious cab with ergonomic controls reduces operator fatigue during extended work periods. With a full-turn tipping load of 8,157 lbs (3,700 kg) and operating weight of 10,912 lbs (4,950 kg), this loader delivers impressive lifting capacity in a compact footprint, making it ideal for material handling in space-constrained environments.
