The XCMG XC948 – a crackin’ piece of kit, this is, a powerful and versatile mid-sized wheel loader built to tackle tough construction, quarrying and material-handling jobs with ease & in spades . Weighing in at a whoppin’ 15 tonnes, it sits nicely in the middle ground ‘twixt compact and full-sized loaders, providing just the right balance of muscle and agility.
Under the bonnet (or hood, depending on where you are in the world) of the XC948 is a 99kW Cummins QSB6.7 turbocharged diesel engine – the kind of engine that’s gonna deliver some serious grunt & keep on running all day long. Paired up with a ZF automatic transmission and heavy-duty axles with wet brakes, this is a machine that’ll run smoothly and keep on truckin’, even when the going gets tough. And with a load-sensing hydraulic system on board, you can be sure the XC948 will be responding just as smart as you are.
Keeping things cool (literally !) is a clever bit of kit that reverses the fan direction to keep all the dust and heat at bay – allowing you to keep on working in even the toughest conditions.
The XC948’s got a reinforced articulated frame that’ll keep on going long after the going gets tough, and the 2.4m³ bucket is built to withstand the rough stuff too – rated at 4 tonnes and with a breakout force of up to 140kN, it’s a bit of kit that’s not afraid of a challenge. And with centralized lubrication points and engine covers that swing wide open, maintenance is a doddle – get it done quickly and get back to work.
Inside the cab, the ROPS/FOPS certification means the XC948’s a safe place to be, with a suspension seat, climate control and all the controls right where you need them. Visibility’s not an issue either – you can see everything you need to. And you can bolt on all sorts of bits and bobs to turn this into the perfect tool for the job at hand – from forks to grapples to quick hitches etc. It’s a machine that adapts, and does the job with power, efficiency & comfort – meaning it’s a very cost-effective choice for all sorts of jobs.
