Forestry: Wacker Neuson introduces trio of new products

Led by the high payload-focused TH625, the trio also includes the WL250 and WL750, the first with the new product designation for the company's wheel loaders.

In the future, customers will be able to recognise the bucket volume by the number in the product designation of the wheel loaders: WL250 = 0.25 cubic metres of bucket volume.

The new compact Wacker Neuson TH625 telehandler "guarantees maximum efficiency in everyday work" thanks to its combination of a high payload of 2.5 tonnes and a lifting height of six metres. It is available with a 45 kW or 55 kW engine and it enables fast and high material handling.

A Wacker Neuson statement added: "Due to its low dimensions and good manoeuvrability, it can also be used in confined spaces. The cabin is both ergonomically and clearly designed and offers ideal all-round visibility, which positively affects both safety and efficiency. The electronically regulated drive system with various operating modes enables the demand-oriented application of the machine."

Like all Wacker Neuson telehandlers, the TH625 is also equipped with the driver assistance system Vertical Lift System (VLS). The system prevents the machine from tipping in the longitudinal direction due to overload and enables safe and smooth work processes even with high payloads. 

Elsewhere, the compact WL250 wheel loader has an operating weight of around two tonnes, while the WL750 can handle up to four tonnes. The former is said to be ideal for applications in halls, garages, road and highway construction, as well as gardening and landscaping.
