1984 LIUGONG CLG842III Z-BAR WHEEL LOADERS

Technical Description

The LiuGong CLG842III Z-bar is a mid-size wheel loader engineered for demanding material handling applications. Powered by a Cummins QSB6.7 turbocharged diesel engine, this machine delivers 193 net horsepower (144 kW) at 2,200 rpm, providing robust performance across diverse job sites. The loader features a Z-bar linkage configuration, which enhances load handling capabilities and operational stability during lifting and dumping operations. With a rated bucket capacity of 3.5 cubic yards (2 cubic meters), the CLG842III accommodates various bulk materials and aggregates efficiently. The machine achieves a maximum dump clearance of 9.8 feet (3 meters) at full raise, enabling effective discharge into trucks and hoppers at considerable heights. Operating at an estimated weight of approximately 33,601 pounds (15,241 kg), the loader maintains optimal maneuverability while delivering substantial breakout force for ground engagement. The CLG842III incorporates modern features including a powershift transmission for seamless gear transitions, hydraulic bucket positioning for precise material handling, and an automatic ride control system that reduces operator fatigue. The machine is equipped with LED lighting for enhanced visibility, air conditioning, and a backup camera for improved safety. The Z-bar configuration, combined with the loader's robust chassis design and dual hinge taper rolling bearings, effectively distributes horizontal and vertical loads for extended service life in harsh operating environments. This configuration makes the CLG842III suitable for quarrying, construction, mining, and landscaping applications where reliable performance and load capacity are essential.
