Wheel loaders, front loaders

A wheel loader is a type of self-propelled construction equipment, which is used for a wide range of tasks in the domains of construction and excavation.

A wheel loader is a rubber-tired vehicle with two wheel axles, whose main working body is a bucket mounted on the luffing jib. Lifting of the jib, turning and tilting the bucket is conducted by power of a hydraulic system. The main task of the wheel loaders equipped with a bucket is removal of horizontal layers of substance (e.g., soil) and its transportation on short distances to form mounds or to load it into trucks for further transportation. These vehicles are often used to clear snowdrifts on roads.

At the same time, it should be noted that just like in the case with other types of loaders (crawler, telescopic, skid steer loader), the universal fixture on the jib provides the possibility to attach any type of buckets, grabs, forks, etc. to the wheel loader. This allows expanding the scope of application, correspondingly to the particular type of the used working body. Moreover, in the case of necessity, these vehicles are able to carry out towing operations.
