Compact wheel loader is a middle ground between skid steer loaders and large wheel loaders. It can safely and effectively handle a variety of applications where skid steer loaders are too small and full-size wheel loaders are too large. With a compact wheel loader, you get better lifting capacity and reach while maintaining a smaller footprint.
Compact wheel loader keeps fuel costs down.
Compact wheel loaders are more fuel-efficient than their larger counterparts. And, thanks to their small engines, they are also more fuel-efficient than many larger skid steer loaders. Tyres for skid steer loaders have to be chosen correctly and can become costly, especially with skid wear. Compact wheel loaders, however, do not skid; they turn. This, together with their articulated front-end steering, is much better for the tyres and provides a longer service life.
Compact wheel loader provides useful road capability.
Compact wheel loaders travel at speeds of 10 to 20 mph and, as mentioned above, are driven with minimal wear on the tyres. In terms of productivity, this makes them superior to skid steer loaders (skid steers move at 7 to 11 mph) in workplaces where they need to travel from one place to another.
Compact wheel loader improves visibility and therefore safety and productivity.
The increased height and front design of the compact wheel loader provides greater visibility compared to skid steer loaders. Visibility at the rear is also better. This makes for safer and more efficient operation in a variety of applications and in a variety of jobsite environments.
Three reasons to choose a compact wheel loader over a skid steer loader:
1) Increased visibility
Compact wheel loaders are designed to have the operator sitting high up in the cabs, offering amazing visibility of their environment and surroundings. This is extremely beneficial in high-traffic areas such as active construction sites.
2) Increased capacities
Sometimes you may find that skid steer loaders do not have large enough lift capacities while full size wheel loaders exceed what you require. This is when compact wheel loaders are the best-case scenario. Compact wheel loaders can easily scoop and transport materials efficiently across sites.
3) Improved tire efficiency
A key difference between these two machines is that a compact wheel loader is designed with articulated steering. Generally, compact wheel loaders offer smoother operation and reduced ground disturbance. And because they have a pivot point that facilitates turning, they do not skid. Thus, compact wheel loaders deliver extended tire life, improving your bottom line by minimizing frequent tires replacement costs.
