Liebherr material-handling equipment –
built for maximum productivity.
Robust designs using well thought-out technology mean
continuously high material-handling performance combined with high load capacities. This is why Liebherr
develop, test, and produce key components themselves,
such as the diesel engine, hydraulic pumps, motors, and
cylinders. This universal model range has the right material-handling equipment for every application.
A large number of the most widely differing fi tting variants
and the quick-change systems from Liebherr mean effi cient
material-handling performance, time savings and continuously high machine workloads.

The mobile material-handling machines.
Every day, Liebherr material-handling equipment proves
its worth on the most widely differing industrial situations
all over the world. Mobile machines from Liebherr can be
modifi ed on site, quickly and fl exibly. These machines can
be used wherever an immediate need arises. Robust design
and wide outriggers make for a high handling performance
with excellent stability.
Service-oriented, carefully thought-out equipment designs
mean short maintenance times; all maintenance points are
arranged on the easily accessible service side of the engine.
The semi-automatic central lubricating system provided as
standard also makes time-consuming greasing and lubricating a thing of the past, and ensures high availability for
the equipment.
For the greatest possible material-handling effi ciency,
Liebherr crawler material-handling equipment is the
ideal solution, combining excellent stability with
excellent range. Liebherr crawler excavators
are ideal for operations in which the machine
is predominantly stationary and/or where soil
bearing capacity is limited.
They are stable material handlers which are designed for
The equipment elements fi tted to the crawler material-handlers have been designed especially with material-handling
operations in mind. The balanced industrial kinematic concepts ensure maximum working radii at high load capaci-
ties. A wide range of different industrial gooseneck booms
and industrial sticks provide the best possible equip-
ment variant for every task. Liebherr crawler excavators
are designed to shift a lot in a short time, and with-
out having to move the machine. This time saving
directly benefi ts handling capacity and achieves a
For an optimum view in the most widely differing operational situations, Liebherr provide hydraulically adjustable and rigid cab-elevation systems. Hydraulic cab
elevation means that the operator can adjust his range
of vision steplessly allowing the best possible range of
vision for his work. The result is optimum load performance and maximum productivity. To protect the driver,
Liebherr also offers a wide range of different protection
elements for the cab.

Driver’s cab.
The generous dimensions of the cab, with its wide range of
storage options, provide the best possible fi elds of vision
thanks to the large-area windows and the inclined superstructure edges. The air-conditioning system, the ergonomically designed driver’s seat, which can be adjusted in
a multitude of ways, and the low noise emissions all ensure
that the driver remains on top form all day long.

Multi-tine grapples.
The tried-and-trusted multi-tine grapples are essential
tools for every Liebherr hydraulic excavator. Thanks to their
carefully designed geometry, Liebherr multi-tine grapples
are ideally matched to Liebherr machines – resulting in excellent loading behaviour and high productivity.

Tool-Control and Likufix.
What is Tool Control?
Tool Control is an additional electro-hydraulic function which makes working with hydraulic addon parts very convenient. Up to ten combinations of oil fl ows and pressures can be programmed
with the name of the tool and selected directly from the display. With the help of Tool Control, the
operator can select the parameters for the hydraulic tool he wishes to use with a simple press of
a button – no elaborate readjustment needed when it comes to a tool change.
What is LIKUFIX?
Likufi x is a hydraulic quick-change system combined with an automatic hydraulic coupling
device designed for quick, reliable changing of mechanical and hydraulic add-on tools,
directly from the cab. Likufi x is the ideal supplement to Tool Control. The combination of
Likufi x and Tool Control makes it possible to change hydraulic addon tools easily – without even leaving the cab.
The technical advantages:
• Fully automatic play compensation
• Tight connection between the hydraulic circuits thanks to the
hydro-mechanical compensation system
• More than 25 years experience in fully-automatic
coupling systems
• Reliable system with long service life
The convenience advantage:
• Reliable hydraulic connection free of oil leaks
• Low operating and maintenance costs
• Add-on parts can be changed from the cab
The economic advantage:
• Easy equipping of existing hydraulic excavators
• Hydraulic add-on parts changed in a matter of seconds – meaning
better machine utilisation with different applications on the same unit
• Major time savings in comparison with hydraulic-hose changes
• Low operating and maintenance costs with maximum productivity
• Carefully selected use of the add-on parts for long tool service life
