Wheel loaders 3080 - High performance and powerful
The wheel loader 3080 is a cab machine that has been tuned perfectly to the issues of medium-size to large companies. The drive via planetary axle increases torque on the wheel, thus improving shearing forces. Two different planetary axles are available for selection. The optimum ratio between shearing forces and machine performance allows working with power and economically at the same time. The Z-kinematics installed ensures that power is always optimally used when loading and unloading the bucket. In the process, the Z-kinematics create huge lifting and tearing forces in short cycle times. When being able to move and turn the machine quickly is vital, a speed increase as a 30 km/h variant is available.

High-quality powder coating

• Compared to conventional wet painting, powder coating increases corrosion protection. It thus prolongs the value preservation of the machine to a great extent. In addition, the process is based on powder recovery. Therefore, it is particularly environmentally friendly.
• The durable powder coating guarantees value retention and ensures an accordingly high resale value for the machine.

100 % connectible differential lock

• Compared to a self-locking differential, the switchable 100 % differential lock provides maximum traction and thrust when needed. This increases the efficiency of the machine.
• During normal traction drive, the differential lock is switched off. This provides safety and causes less tire wear, thus saving operating costs.

Very good service access due to tiltable cab

• The cab can be tilted to the side in a few easy steps. This allows uncomplicated access to the engine, hydraulic system and electrics. This greatly simplifies the monitoring and maintenance of the machine.
• Easy and quick maintenance maximizes the availability of the machine and optimizes the operating costs.

Joystick console spring-mounted on the operator's seat

• The joystick console is mounted on the operator's seat and cushions in response to vibrations. If the operator's seat is adjusted to the operator's needs, the joystick console is always in the perfect position as well. This provides added comfort and ergonomics for the operator.
• The joystick console and the operator's seat form a single unit. This ensures that the operator's arm position remains constant while working with the machine. This increases the operator's comfort and enables them to work productively and in a focused manner for longer.

Air-conditioning system

• The optional air conditioning system ensures a pleasant working climate inside the cab when outside temperatures are warm. It ensures a high airflow and impresses with its optimized cooling capacity. The operating element for the control and the air nozzles are always in the best possible position.
• The air conditioning system increases the comfort for the operator. It enables fatigue-free work as it reduces the strain on the operator in warm outdoor temperatures.

30 km/h driving speed

• With the appropriate motorization, the machine can optionally reach a speed of 30 km/h. This enables the machine to be moved more quickly from A to B with corresponding time being saved, thereby increasing productivity.

Features may include:

Performance
Maximum traction through articulated pendulum joint

• The articulated pendulum joint enables all four wheels to maintain traction control even on uneven terrain. This increases the productivity of the machine and gives the operator optimum control. 
• The optimal ratio of articulation and swing angle ensures high traction control. This makes it easy to maneuver the machine. Even in confined spaces, there is no collision between the front and rear sections of the machine.
• The front and rear carriages can swing independently of each other. The operator can thus react sensitively to every bump. This increases comfort and creates a safe feeling while driving.

High hydraulic performance

• A Weidemann machine has sufficient hydraulic output. It is therefore suitable for operating many different attachments.
• The flexible combination of machine and a variety of hydraulically operated attachments covers numerous work tasks.
• The advantage: Machines with high hydraulic output save money, as it is not absolutely necessary to change to a larger machine.

Perfectly Tuned Z-kinematics

• The Z-kinematics ensure that energy is always optimally utilized when loading and unloading the bucket. In the process, the Z-kinematics generate enormous tearing and breakaway forces. This enables fast loading cycles and increases the productivity of the machine.

Optimum tires

• The right tires for a machine play an important role in practical application. If the tires are matched to the ground and the application, the operator can work optimally with the machine.
• Selecting the right tires ensures maximum traction as well as minimum wear and a pleasant running smoothness of the machine. These aspects also increase the service life of the tires and at the same time increase economic efficiency.
• Different profiles are available depending on the model so as to achieve optimum performance on every ground: EM profile, AS profile, SureTrax profile, RP profile, MPT profile, Multiuse profile and Bibload profile. This ensures maximum flexibility in machine configuration ex works.

Compact dimensions for optimal maneuverability

• Compact dimensions and directional stability ensure optimum mobility and high maneuverability of the machine. 
• The dimension of the machine are ideal. This makes it possible to work even in confined spaces.

Efficiency

Work efficiently

• Efficiency is one of the most important characteristics that machines should have for efficient application. That’s because the faster and more timesaving a machine maneuvers, the higher is its work output.
• In Weidemann machines, economic efficiency stands for technically sophisticated solutions, such as powerful drive, strong tearing forces, high-performance kinematics, high maneuverability, excellent stability and an efficient rapid-change system for attachments.
• Other factors that speak for economic efficiency: low wear, high-quality powder coating, hardened pins, good accessibility to service, high cylinder speeds and flexible driving speeds.

Efficient change of attachments

• The hydraulic rapid-change system allows attachments to be exchanged conveniently and quickly. The good view of the rapid-change plate makes changing attachments particularly easy. 
• Changing the attachments is extremely safe thanks to the 2-hand operation when de-coupling.
• The machine is immediately ready for use again after changing the attachment. This increases productivity and improves economic efficiency.

Inch brake pedal: Engine output where it is needed.

1. No pressure on the inch-brake pedal: Full power for the traction drive.
2. Lightly pressed inch-brake-pedal: Speed is reduced, more power to the work hydraulics.
3. Strongly pressed inch-brake-pedal: The speed is reduced further, even more power to the work hydraulics.
4. Fully pressed inch-brake-pedal: The wheel loader is stationary, full power to the work hydraulics.

• The advantages of the inch-brake-pedal: Less wear of the service brake as well as optimum power distribution of the engine output.
• The inch-brake-pedal and hydrostatic traction drive enable very sensitive work to be done with the machine.

Quality

Perfectly tuned kinematics

• At Weidemann, the kinematics are adapted to the size of the machine, based on application. This ensures optimum power ratios and maximum productivity for every machine.
• The large hydraulic cylinders always provide enough reserves. The components of the loader unit are not operated at maximum.
• The optimum matching and superior workmanship of the loading arm design and hydraulic cylinders increases the longevity of the machine.

Variety

A multi tool for many applications

• The work tasks on a farm are varied, and so are the attachments from Weidemann. Every model becomes a multi-function control stalk machine with our comprehensive and well thought-out range of attachments.
• The possible application of many different attachments increases the economic efficiency of a machine.

Variety of equipment

• Weidemann machines have extensive and high-quality standard equipment. Moreover, depending on the application and model, e.g. engine, drive, driver's cab or hydraulics can be individually configured. It is always ensured that the machine meets the individual requirements and preferences of the customer.

Selectable operator's cab

• We offer a suitable selection of different driver's cabs for different applications.
• Different driver's cabs are available depending on the machine: Fixed overhead guard, folding overhead guard eps (Easy Protection System) and various cab versions. 

Flexible trailer operation

• The machine can tow a trailer using the optional trailer hitch. Different systems are available depending on the machine. The maximum possible weight of the trailer depends on the model and equipment.
• For operation on public roads, the machine must be registered in Germany as a self-propelled working machine and may also only be used within specified limits. Other regulations may apply internationally; the local sales partner will provide information on this.
• The option of pulling a trailer expands the machine’s range of applications and offers more flexibility in application, as no additional towing vehicle is required.

Rear hydraulic connections

• The loader can be equipped at the back with hydro connections (single or double acting). This expands the range of applications of the machine, as rear hydraulic attachments or tipper trailers can be operated.
• The machine can be used multi-functionally for different activities. No additional vehicles or machines are required.

High Flow high-performance hydraulics

• The machine can be optionally equipped with High Flow high-performance hydraulics. This allows operating front attachments with a high oil requirement (such as a snow blower). This expands the range of applications for the machine.

Separate 4th Control circuit

• The machine can be optionally equipped with a double-acting hydraulic auxiliary control circuit. The separate 4th control circuit is operated independently and individually and allows the extended application of hydraulic attachments with multiple connections and functions.

Front and/or rear electrical connections

• The machine can be equipped with front and/or rear electrical connections. This allows electrically operated additional functions of attachments, such as a sweeping machine with water spraying mechanism, to be operated. It is also possible to switch additional functions of hydraulic attachments. The operation is comfortable via the joystick.
• The electric functions (push/lock) can be individually assigned to the joystick controls if desired.
• Electrical connections at the front and/or rear ensure that a wide range of attachments can be operated with the machine. This in turn increases the range of applications of the machine.

Pressureless return including leakage oil line

• Certain attachments with their own hydraulic motor require an unpressurized return line. The hydraulic oil flows back into the hydraulic oil tank via the oil cooler and the oil filter in a large dimensioned separate line. The advantage here is that the attachment can feed the return oil cooled and without increased stagnation pressure back into the hydraulic oil tank. This protects components of the machine and the attachment.
• The leakage oil line returns the leakage oil of the oil motor to the tank with max. 2 bar if required. This minimizes the casing pressure in the hydraulic motor of the attachment.

Comfort

Comfortable Cab

• The spacious and comfortable cab meets the safety requirements of the current European Machinery Directive according to ROPS (Roll Over Protective Structure) and FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure) and offers plenty of headroom and freedom of movement.
• The cab's full glazing and deeply recessed windows give the operator an excellent view of the attachment and the entire work area. This ensures safety, as the operator always has a clear view of the work environment.
• The interior impresses with excellent ergonomics, a generous amount of available space and many individual adjustment options for the operator. The cab offers protection from all weather conditions and thus enables the operator to work in a focused and comfortable manner.

Adjustable steering wheel

• The steering wheel can be individually adjusted to suit the operator's needs. This ensures that every operator can work with the machine in an ergonomic and focused manner.

Ergonomic Joystick

• The joystick can be held securely and comfortably. The control is, both, direct and sensitive. Thus the operator always has the machine and the most important functions under control.
• In addition to standard functions such as selecting the direction of travel and the speed level, many other functions such as the differential lock, the 3rd and 4th control circuit, High-Flow and all electric functions can be operated via the joystick. This enables comfortable one-handed operation of attachments.
• Concentrating the most important function on the joystick ensures comfortable working even over longer periods of time. This also increases overall efficiency when working with the machine.

Ergonomic cockpit

• Well-tuned equipment increases the comfort for the operator. He can also work optimally with the machine for longer periods of time.

Comfortable working environment

• The efficiently designed heating and ventilation system with fan, fresh air filter and well-placed air nozzles keeps the cab in a comfortable working climate.
• The various Weidemann cab versions always have sufficient air nozzles installed. This enables good air circulation and makes the working climate pleasant for the operator.

Ventilation as required

• Depending on the version, the cab has large, wide-opening doors or windows on both sides that can be opened erect. With the divided door, the upper window pane can be opened and locked in place. Gap ventilation is also possible. This ensures fresh air in the cab, even without air conditioning, and increases comfort for the operator in warm outside temperatures.

Comfortable and ergonomic operator's seat

• The operator's seat is ergonomically shaped, well suspended and adjustable. The joystick console including armrest forms a unit with the operator's seat and is also adjustable and spring-suspended. The optional air-sprung comfort seat offers even greater comfort. A heated seat is available for cold temperatures. This increases the operator's comfort and enables them to work with the machine in a focused manner for extended periods of time.
• Depending on the model, different seats are available to match the size of the machine. The various seat adjustment options allow individual settings for the operator, providing optimum comfort.

Vibration-damped workstation

• The machine through well-designed dampers absorbs vibrations and shocks. The operator's body is very well protected, allowing longer periods of focused work with the machine.

Comfortable loading arm damping

• The loading arm shock absorber can be activated electrically and enables optimum handling of the machine in rough terrain and on the road. It is particularly recommended when the machine transports heavy loads in the bucket or on the pallet fork, or moves a heavy attachment over a long distance at high speed. The loading arm shock absorber provides a significant plus in comfort for the operator.
• Lifting arm damping prevents the machine from rocking at high travel speeds. This increases safety for the operator and protects the vehicle components by absorbing shocks.

Proportional speed limiter (slow speed device)

• With the proportional speed limiter (slow speed device), very slow travel speeds can be achieved in the first speed stage at constant engine speed. This offers an advantage when using attachments that are operated at a constant high speed but at a very low driving speed at the same time.
• The proportional speed limiter (slow speed device) enables comfortable and concentrated work with attachments such as a sweeper, hedge trimmer or mulcher, even over longer periods of time.

Manual throttle

• The manual throttle allows a constant engine speed to be set manually for optimum operation of an attachment. Continuously variable adjustment is convenient and precise via a corresponding potentiometer.
• The hand throttle ensures comfortable and concentrated work with attachments such as a sweeper, hedge trimmer or mulcher, even over longer periods of time.

Maintenance

Easy-open engine hood

• The engine bonnet can be opened with just one hand movement to carry out regular service and maintenance work. The hydraulic oil tank, air filter, engine oil filler, oil dipstick and cooling water can thus be accessed easily and quickly and the necessary maintenance work can be carried out efficiently.
• Easy and quick maintenance maximizes the availability of the machine and optimizes the operating costs.

Easily accessible machine components.

• Regular lubrication of all lubrication points of the machine is essential for correct and effective maintenance and thus the operational safety of the machine. The lubrication points at Weidemann are always in an easily accessible position so as to save time and make work easier.
• Since the lubrication points are easily accessible, regular lubrication of the machine is particularly easy. This in turn increases the longevity of the machine and increases its value preservation.

Fully automatic central lubrication unit

• The duration of the lubrication process and the intervals can be set on the fully automatic central lubrication system. Regular re-lubrication of all lubrication points increases the operational safety of the machine. 
• With the fully automatic central lubrication system, the lubrication of the machine is done automatically and thus very conveniently. This means significant saving of time and increase in the longevity of the machine, thus increasing its value preservation.

Maintenance-friendly hydraulic hosing

• Short hydro connections are generally installed on Weidemann machines. This means that the hoses are split at several places. If a hydro connection needs to be replaced; only the affected part is replaced. This means that there is no need to replace the entire hose connection in the hydraulic circuit. This speeds up repair times enormously and is also cost-efficient.

Safety

Illumination of the work area

• The lighting can be adapted for different requirements: Halogen lighting, lighting according to StVZO, LED lighting and additional headlights on the driver's cab, the loader unit or the telescopic arm. This allows working with the machine adjusted to the individual, even in the dark.
• A well-lit work area increases work safety and lets the operator work even longer with the machine, in a concentrated and safe manner.

Eco-friendliness

Current emission standard and suitable engine

• When implementing the current emissions directive for the reduction of exhaust gases and pollutants, it is important not to compromise in terms of performance, service life or economic efficiency of the machines, despite strict regulations. To implement this directive, Weidemann uses the latest engine technologies. These are equipped with various exhaust gas after-treatment systems.
• Each machine can be equipped with the motorization appropriate for its size class. This prevents under- or over-motorization, which in turn ensures fuel-efficient and economical operation.
