The Liebherr L542 2plus1 is a mid-range wheel loader engineered for versatile material handling and loading applications. This articulated loader features a 3.6 cubic yard bucket with an 8.3-foot width and achieves a maximum dump clearance of 9.4 feet, providing efficient loading heights for standard truck beds. The machine operates at 28,750 pounds and delivers a static tipping load of 21,525 pounds, enabling substantial payload capacity for demanding work environments.

The hydrostatic transmission offers three forward and three reverse gears with a maximum speed of 24.9 miles per hour in both directions. The hydraulic system employs a load-sensing variable axial piston pump delivering 37 gallons per minute, with a relief valve set at 4,786 psi. Cycle times are optimized for productivity: 5.9 seconds to raise, 1.6 seconds to dump, and 4 seconds to lower the bucket. Designed with operator comfort and visibility in mind, the cab reaches a maximum height of 12.9 feet at the hinge pin. The 9.8-foot wheelbase and articulated design provide exceptional maneuverability on confined job sites. A 45-gallon fuel tank supports extended operating periods, while the 47.6-gallon hydraulic capacity ensures reliable system performance. Standard equipment includes 20.5R25 tires and full ROPS cabin protection, making this loader suitable for construction, mining, and aggregate operations requiring dependable mid-sized material handling capability.
