Liebherr rolled out its new L 586 2plus2 wheel loader, calling the 71,800-pound, 7.8-cubic-yard machine the world’s largest hydrostatic wheel loader. The unit has a tipping load of 45,040 pounds. Liebherr says the 340-horsepower machine outperforms higher-horsepower mechanical drive designs because of its advanced hydrostatic drive system. The company says its hydrostatic machines are up to 25 percent more fuel efficient than conventional drive machines, and have as much as 25 percent less tire wear and virtually no brake wear.
