FAQs About Wheel Loaders

Wheel loaders are ideal for various light-duty to heavy-duty earthmoving tasks such as transporting, loading and clearing materials. Wheel loaders, also known as front-end loaders, offer roomy, high-visibility cabs for reduced operator fatigue and unmatched productivity. Easy fingertip controls, power steering and automatic transmission all allow for precise equipment operation. Front-end loaders are versatile machines used to pile debris into dump trucks and move loose materials such as rocks, dirt, wood chips, snow and feed. Popular on construction sites, they feature a suspended bucket on two hydraulic arms that can be fitted with other attachments for different tasks. Before you rent, review the basics of how to operate a front-end loader in our Project Uptime article.

Wheel loaders are one of the most versatile types of earthmoving equipment. With optional attachments such as buckets, rakes, pipe carriages, forks and extendable booms, you can reach higher, lift larger loads or transport pipes and conduit.
