Description

The LiuGong 856H wheel loader is a robust and versatile mid-sized loader engineered to handle a wide range of heavy-duty material handling tasks on construction, quarry and industrial sites. With an operating weight of around 19.9 – 22.5 tonnes and a rated load of 5 tonnes, this machine offers the strength and balance needed for demanding jobs such as loading trucks, moving aggregates and site clearing. Its design emphasises both productivity and reliability, making it an excellent choice for professional contractors and plant hire fleets alike.

Powering the 856H is a modern Cummins 6LT9.3 engine that delivers strong performance and complies with EU Stage V emissions standards, ensuring efficient fuel use without compromising on power. The engine’s high-pressure common-rail fuel system, turbocharger and intercooler work together to provide consistent torque and smooth operation across a range of working conditions. Combined with load-sensing hydraulics and an automatic transmission, the 856H delivers excellent digging force and load-handling capability without excessive fuel consumption.

The 856H’s versatility is further enhanced by its adaptable bucket options, which range from approximately 2.6 m³ up to 5.6 m³, allowing you to configure the loader for general-purpose tasks, light material handling or heavier rock applications. A breakout force of around 187 kN gives this machine the muscle to penetrate and lift heavy loads, while cycle times and hydraulic response ensure efficient, responsive control during digging and loading operations. This makes the LiuGong 856H effective across a variety of site tasks.

Operator comfort and ease of maintenance are built into the 856H’s design. The cab offers excellent visibility and a comfortable working environment, with controls positioned for intuitive operation and reduced fatigue over long shifts. Serviceability is improved with easily accessible daily-check points under a wide-opening engine hood, helping to reduce downtime and keep the loader working longer. Together with its rugged construction and job-ready features, the LiuGong 856H stands out as a reliable and productive wheel loader for demanding worksite conditions.
