The demand for small multipurpose articulated loaders in the agricultural, rental and construction sectors is on the increase. These machines are gradually replacing other types of machines (tractors with loaders, skid-steers…) for greater versatility, agility and safety for these various applications. Mecalac have launched their new compact loader range squarely in this segment.
A RANGE OF 6 MACHINES
The new Mecalac MCL range includes 6 models, from 1.74 t to 2.85 t:
- 4 models with long boom (Standard), fit the needs of the agricultural segment
- 2 models with short boom, fit the needs of the construction segment
MCL2
Its small size and wheel motor transmission allow it to move with agility. The smallest machine in the MCL range but with maximum performance, it has all the features of the big ones. Its modern and ergonomic operator’s station protected by a canopy is also available in a cabbed version.
MCL4
Offers an excellent compromise between compactness and lifting performance. With its 18.4 kW engine, it is also the ideal machine for rental fleets that want a durable and high-performance machine. Its low transport weight also allows the machine to be transported on a road trailer.
MCL6
The best of the MCL4 but with even more power, its 36kW motor allows it to reach and maintain high speeds on the road. Its high hydraulic flow and its speed of execution allow it to considerably increase the productivity on worksites.
MCL8
Power, high dumping height and lifting capacity are the key words that guided the design of this machine. It is at ease in all circumstances whether it is for loading, handling or driving hydraulic attachments.
MCL4+ / MCL6+
Short arm versions to meet the specific needs of different applications, especially in the construction sector, offer an increased tipping load.
All the machines will be available in 3 versions: canopy, canopy with foldable top or cab version, and all with a wide selection of attachments.
