Two new compact telescopic loaders from New Holland

Two new compact telescopic loaders from New Holland

To meet material handling needs in confined spaces, New Holland has expanded its range of LM5000 telescopic loaders with two new compact models: the LM5020 and the LM5030.
These newcomers deliver optimal productivity thanks to 360° visibility, unrivalled maneuverability and a level of comfort unmatched in the sector, all in an extremely compact chassis no more than two meters wide and high.

Compact dimensions for confined spaces

The LM5020 and 5030 are designed to be the natural choice when size is a sensitive issue. Thanks to their compact overall dimensions, they offer maneuverability that provides access to every area while maintaining the necessary level of power.

The LM5020 is fitted with a powerful and efficient Tier 3 turbo engine with Common Rail injection, while the LM5030 features mechanical injection for economy. The overall dimensions of the LM5020, 4,1 m x 1,8 m x 1,99 m (L x W x H), are such that even the lowest poultry houses are easy to access.

This, combined with a lift capacity of 2,5 tonnes at 5,78 meters, guarantees optimal performance and accessibility. The LM5030 also provides easy access, along with an increased lift capacity of 2,8 tonnes at 6,35 meters, in a compact chassis of 4,67 m x 2 m x 2,04 m (L x W x H).

Robust design for reliable operation

Both new models have been optimized for reliability and safety thanks to their robust construction and internal design. All key components subject to heavy stress, notably the chassis and the boom, are made of thick reinforced steel to ensure stability and durability during prolonged operations.

The heavy steel structure gives them on average a 10-12 % higher weight than the competition, for greater stability when lifting heavy loads at full extension.

Note that the New Holland dealer network has been trained to provide support and carry out day-to-day maintenance of the entire LM5000 telescopic loader range.

Optimal maneuverability on the move

New Holland knows that unrivalled maneuverability is a prerequisite for efficient work indoors and outdoors. The engineers have therefore worked towards this goal. The LM5020 has a turning radius of 3,4 m and the LM5030 can turn within a circle of only 4 m, allowing optimal maneuverability even in the most confined yards and sheds.

An inching pedal is available to ensure precise positioning of the machine when stacking or selecting bales, or moving fertilizer or grain.

It provides greater precision, reduced losses and increased safety, productivity and profitability. Thanks to their robust design, the machines offer a high degree of torsional rigidity for even more precise positioning.

The LM5030 is equipped with a highly accurate two-pilot wheel alignment system. This advanced technology ensures alignment of the front and rear axles for precise operation, ideal for work in reduced visibility or in poorly lit sheds.

Exceptional visibility for greater precision

For greater precision and safety, 360° visibility is provided by the very large glass area. The panoramic windshield extends to the rear of the cab and offers a clear view of the boom, from ground level to full extension.

Safety is further enhanced by the cab, which is fitted with a Falling Object Protective Structure (FOPS).

A high-performance hydraulic system

The LM5020 and LM5030 models deliver impressive hydraulic performance, perfectly suited to the most demanding applications. Hydraulic flows of 80 and 110 liters/minute respectively minimize cycle times to ensure efficient loading or bale stacking.

Both models are equipped with patented compensation cylinder technology. Integrated into the lift cylinder, this technology ensures constant balanced pressure on the boom.

This brings two major advantages: longer durability and attachments kept parallel to the ground during lifting, for greater precision and safety.

The single ergonomic joystick can control up to five functions. It is the ideal equipment for specialized applications such as handling silage bales.

This intuitive joystick is within easy reach, to the operator's right: all lifting, extension and auxiliary functions for all attachments, from forks to buckets and grabs, are thus controlled.

Unrivalled operator comfort

The cabs offer unmatched comfort and ergonomic operation for the operator, for more productivity and less fatigue during long working days.

The spacious cab is mounted on silent blocks, absorbing the harshest shocks on uneven ground. All controls are within easy reach and can be operated comfortably from the driver's seat, whatever the operator's size.

The entire range is available in two different comfort levels. The base offer is perfect for farms looking for cost-effectiveness. It is also possible to upgrade to the special comfort pack with air conditioning, double glazing, an air suspension seat for extra comfort and a full range of lights. Another comfort kit with a mobile phone holder is also available.
