Get a load of Weidemann'sS new 90 Series

Weidemann Ireland will unveil its new wheel loader portfolio – the 90 Series – at the National Ploughing Championships (The Ploughing). The 3090T model will do the heavy lifting as it will be on show at the event, but three other models comprise the series – the 2090, 2090T, and 3090. These are redesigned versions of Weidemann’s powerful and high-performance wheel loaders and telescopic wheel loaders in the 4t and 5t classes.

“With the new 90 Series models, we are providing an ideal range of machine sizes and performance for challenging applications,” according to Andrew Voigt, commercial director. “Our goal was to develop powerful and technically well-designed work machines for professional users. Practical features and high-quality standard components position the 90 Series in the market for professional application and to serve demanding customer segments. The top-highlights of the 90s series are:

Automatic bucket return: The loading system is automatically returned to a position previously defined by the operator.

Tilt-in-assist: Automatic retraction of the bucket when the loading system is raised.

Vibrating function: Automatic vibrating motion at the push of a touch button leads to efficient emptying of the bucket when handling bulk materials that do not flow easily.

Lift height limiter: The loading system is limited to an adjusted height.

Object detection: When reversing, the operator is warned of obstacles both visually (via imaging in the display) and acoustically (via signal tone sounds). In addition, a clear view of the area behind the machine can be shown on the display by a rear-view camera. sing situations and it enables the operator to work safely without any stress.

Active work lighting: A high-quality lighting package with powerful LED work lights and Coming Home lighting as standard ensures optimum illumination of the work area.

Loading system sensitivity (adjustable in 3 levels): Three sections (namely lifting/lowering, rolling in/out and telescoping in/out), can each be freely adjusted in three speed levels, independent of one another. 

Spacious premium cabin: The four-pillar design of the cabin, combined with the panoramic rear window and the sloping engine hood, provides excellent rear view. Visibility of the immediate work area, both to the front and upwards, has also been optimised. 

The console: This has an integrated seven-inch display, jog dial and multifunctional joystick, which offers enhanced comfort for the operator. The controls are positioned to be within easy reach.

Efficient ventilation and heating system: Has been designed specifically for the premium cabin. The improved air streams ensure a comfortable working environment. 

Noise levels in the cabin are kept low: This enables focussed work and also protects the health of the operators. 

For the engine versions of the 90s series: Rehlko engines that conform to emission standard level 5, with a diesel particulate filter (DPF) and a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC).

Speed: Up to 40km/h can be achieved using variable hydrostatic transmission PowerDrive without the need to change gear or mode in all models.

A drum brake with a manual parking brake is installed as standard: A multi-disc brake with an electric parking brake is available as an option. It is activated when the brake pedal is pressed when the machine is at standstill, or when the operator leaves the seat.

Service flap: Weidemann has installed a service flap on the right side of the machine, behind which all the machine’s fuses and the cabin air filter are located together. The battery and the isolating switch are located directly below this. These are also easily accessible from the outside. The lockable toolbox is located on the left side of the machine, right next to the access, so that it is very easy to reach.
