Finally had the Liebherr next to the Kubota over the weekend so couldn't resist a few pictures.

You will see the Kubota is no ordinary 8 tonner in stance, and the Liebherr doesn't seem to totally dwarf it.

However jump in the Liebherr, get the cab up and things look totally different, with the Kubota looking like a 3 tonner sat alongside!

 

 

The Liebherr is now complete, shaken down and ready to go with Shear, Grapple Saw and Selector Grab all running through the Engcon with full Ec-Oil hydraulic connection, so anyone with a lot to get down in a short time this can bring some serious capacity.

Rubber Blocks are available for highway and for the right application it can go onto 1300mm Super Lgp pads for minimal impact.

Awesome stable! I've been looking at jobs with your Liebherr in mind after seeing it in the flesh at Hillhead. These pics do give a good impression of the size of the 8 tonner to be fair!

Great pics Eddie, Just need to get some video of it working to really show what it can do.

 

Not a route I'll be going down. Probably do some demos, just hard to get the right site as it means a Client getting messed about for a couple of days but they will get rewarded with a very cheap job obviously!

Thanks, been a long road to get them where they are now, but extremely happy with the setups.

 

I'll be at APF probably a couple of days and always happy to meet like minded guys. John runs a great kit and the unit you bought was a particularly good setup.

Sadly no Liebherr at APF as John Craig isn't doing the show for Engcon, unless someone wants to fly their banner a bit higher than anyone else!:thumbup:

All looking great Eddie, needing your advice again about tree shears, wanting an energy head for the Cat 2.7d, I see Jas P is selling some.

Any input appreciated.

Must be able to cut and hold

 

Rough budget please Stephen, as the solutions have huge price and spec range.

 

 

Eddie.
