The WL95 will be available from January 2019. Like all Wacker Neuson wheeled loaders, the new model also has comprehensive standard equipment. In addition, the engine, travel drive, operator's station, and hydraulics can be individually configured depending on application and preference.
In the 40 km/h version, the WL95 is equipped with the innovative ecospeedPRO transmission. This is an infinitely variable hydrostatic high-speed transmission, which allows higher tractive forces and driving speeds, and additionally impresses with Wacker Neuson's typical compactness, energy efficiency and the best operator comfort.
In addition to the positive properties known for hydrostatic drives, such as easy reversing, good metering and fine controllability, inching and brake force support, ecospeedPRO makes it possible to drive through the entire speed range from 0 to 40 km/h without shifting gears. This offers a very high level of driving comfort for the end user, since no tractive force interruptions occur. In typical work situations in particular, such as handling work in the Y-cycle, there is a greater need for constant thrust and tractive forces at speeds from 10-20 km/h.
The WL95 comes with two engine versions: a
The load arm achieves a bucket pivot point of 3.8m and can thus easily load any high-sided truck. In addition, the operator always has a very good and direct view of the attachment. The 10tonne WL95 offers a tipping load of over 5.7tonnes for efficient material handling.
Despite the new size class, Wacker Neuson has paid attention to compact dimensions. With a bucket, the WL95 has a total length of 6.5m and a width of 2.39 m and is equipped with an articulated joint and a pendulum axle at the rear for optimum manoeuvrability and traction. The turning circle is only 4.9m with an inner radius of 2.45m. The WL95 can handle transport work with a trailer load of up to 18tonnes. Both a two-line pneumatic brake and a hydraulic trailer brake are offered in order to safely move the trailer loads.
The spacious cabin with good all-round visibility was developed according to the latest findings of ergonomics and clarity. All operator's controls in the cab of the WL95 are in the field of view and are easily accessible. Thanks to the large digital 7" display, the operator always has an overview of the machine and the most important functions. If necessary, the flow rate of the hydraulic oil can be manually set using the "jog dial" control element. This is advantageous if the machine drives a hydraulic attachment, which does not require the full hydraulic performance of the machine. The operator can thus work with the machine and attachment very sensitively and in a resource-conserving way. The console is connected to the air-cushioned seat to allow comfortable driving. The standard air conditioning control system allows for a good air flow in the cabin and ensures fatigue-free working.
Also, the serviceability was thought about during development. The engine hood can be easily opened upwards and the cab can be tilted halfway. The mudguards are removable and together with other, easily accessible access panels, servicing can be easily done, since all important components are accessible.
