The current series of mid-size wheel loaders comprises three machines: the L 526, L 538 and L 546 models. They remain true to the reputation of this class as a powerful yet reliable all-rounder. The high-quality steel construction and robust axles ensure the utmost reliability for these wheel loaders. The modern cab is tailored to the machine operator’s needs. Its logical design not only feels ample and spacious, it also provides good all-round visibility thanks to large window areas.
The manoeuvrability of the four Stereoloaders L 507, L 509, L 514 and L 518 is truly impressive. This is due to stereo steering, a perfectly balanced combination of articulated steering and rear axle steering. The unique steering system combines the advantages of conventional articulated steering with those of all-wheel steering. The result is a minimal turning circle which is particularly practical in cramped conditions.
The compact loaders L 506 and L 508 represent powerful yet reliable machinery for diverse applications involving road building, civil engineering, horticulture and landscaping. With bucket sizes from 0.8 to 1.0 m3, these complement the range of small Liebherr wheel loaders.
