Extended Reach Loader Linkage Available On All Case Full-Sized Wheel Loaders

Staff -- Associated Construction Publications, 6/20/2008

Case Construction Equipment announced the extended reach (XR) loader linkage configuration on all Case full-sized wheel loader models 521E through 1221E.

For applications requiring higher dump clearance, such as loading materials into high sided trucks at transfer stations or feed lots for dairy applications, the optional XR loader linkage configuration delivers extended reach throughout the complete cycle, as well as extended dump clearances. The XR configuration also provides the same high production, fast cycles, optimized operating loads and great visibility to the bucket associated with the traditional Z-bar configuration.

"The XR loader linkage configuration on these wheel loaders gives the operator the capability for high production, while matching the loading height requirements," said Dave Wolf, brand marketing manager, Case Construction Equipment.

An optional XT tool carrier linkage configuration is also available on the 521E, 621E and 721E wheel loaders. The XT configuration offers a true parallel lift throughout the complete cycle, so the operator can concentrate on moving materials rather than making adjustments to level the load.

"From landscaping, industrial material handling and residential construction work, to sand and gravel, stone and aggregates, roads and bridges and site preparation work, Case wheel loaders lead the pack in terms of high production, fast cycles and maximum operating loads," Wolf said.

Ranging in horsepower from 135 to 320 net hp (101 to 239 kW), the Case E Series full-sized wheel loaders include the 521E, 521E/XR, 521E/XT, 621E, 621E/XT, 621E/XR, 721E, 721E/XR, 721E/XT, 821E, 821E/XR, 921E, 921E/XR, 1221E and 1221E/XR. Case also offers a full line of compact wheel loaders.
