A wheel loader is a strong piece of heavy equipment that you might find in agricultural settings or on construction sites. Their typical use is for scooping material ad transporting it from A to B. However, they're very versatile and can be utilised for a wide range of jobs.</p> <h4>Sizes of Wheel Loaders?</h4> <p>Depending on what you need it for you can find 3 size ranges of wheel loaders:</p> <ul> <li>1) Small/compact</li> <li>2) Mid-sized</li> <li>3) Large</li> </ul> <p>Wheel loaders can be viewed as the bigger cousin of skid steers, so they're ideal for big jobs!</p> <h4>Types of Wheel Loaders</h4> <p>There are actually two groupings of wheel loaders; light and heavy loaders. Not to state the obvious, but the light loaders are smaller, and best for lighter materials and tighter spaces. Whereas heavy loaders have more capacity for heavier material and are great for a big job to increase productivity.</p> <h4>So then, what is a Front End Loader?</h4> <p>Well, Wheel loaders go by a range of different names, including scoop loaders, skip loaders and bucket loaders, and front-end loader is simply just another!</p> <h4>What about a Wheel Loader and Bulldozer?</h4> <p>To confuse you even more, a wheel loader and bulldozer look very similar; the difference is a wheel loader (this may seem obvious) has wheels rather than a track system. And typically, wheel loaders scoop and dump material and bulldozers push material.</p>", "excerpt": "<meta charset="utf-8"><span>They're both types of heavy equipment, but which one is which?
