Large-range machine has more compact layout

The L 556 model belongs to the large-size range of Liebherr wheel loaders and complies with Tier 4 Interim standards. The L 556 with Z-bar linkage for standard operations achieves a tipping load of 29,870 lbs. at an operating weight of 39,460 lbs. The machine is equipped with a 4.7-cu.-yd. bucket and is driven by a 188-hp Liebherr four-cylinder diesel engine. According to Liebherr, the engine compartment was redesigned so the engine is installed transversely. This gives the machine a more compact layout and makes all of the principal maintenance points accessible from ground level, the company says.
