LIEBHERR L 526 Z WHEEL LOADER

The Liebherr L 526 Z wheel loader is a robust mid-sized heavy-duty machine designed for efficient material handling and construction applications. It features a powerful 4045HFL07 engine delivering 138 hp (103 kW) of net power, providing strong performance combined with advanced emission control technologies including cooled exhaust gas recirculation, a closed diesel particulate filter, and SCR for compliance with Stage IV/Tier 4f standards. The loader has an operational weight of approximately 24,800 lbs (11,249 kg), optimized for stability and high tipping load capacity around 7,700 kg articulated. The loader’s rated bucket capacity is 2.7 cubic yards (2 cubic meters), with a dump clearance at maximum raise of approximately 10.9 ft (3 m), enabling efficient loading and precise material placement. It employs a Z-bar linkage with high torque output in the lower lift arm range, suitable for heavy-duty lifting and loading tasks. The driveline includes automatic limited-slip differentials on both axles with 45% locking, and a planetary final drive in the wheel hubs to ensure traction and maneuverability. The articulated steering allows for tight turning radii suited for confined spaces. The L 526 Z is characterized by optimal weight distribution achieved through Liebherr's unique component mounting, enhancing tipping stability and operational efficiency. The machine’s variable axial piston pump provides load-sensing hydraulic control, which improves fuel efficiency and hydraulic performance. Overall, the Liebherr L 526 Z combines power, versatility, and reliability for demanding wheel loader operations in construction, agriculture, and industrial sites.
