Avant Launches Low-Cost Compact Loader
Avant Tecno has launched its 855i articulated compact wheel loader in North America, which boasts the same lifting power and height as its largest, most powerful model but at a lower cost. The 855i is a single-speed loader and is designed for those who want the power and performance but don’t need the faster, two-speed configuration of the company’s flagship 860i. Top travel speed on the 855i is 9.3 mph, half the max 18.6 mph of the 860i.
Avant says the 855i is ideal for construction, landscaping and farming “where heavy loads are moved and transitions from one place to another are not long.”
The 855i runs on a 56-horsepower Kohler KDI diesel engine, the same as the 860i, but it gets a new, simpler Poclain MSE05 single-speed drive motor, which the company says reduces its cost.
Most everything else on the 855i is the same as on the 860i. The only other differences: The 855i weighs 110 pounds less and has 410 pound-force less in pulling force.
The 855i has a lift capacity of 4,190 pounds, and its telescopic boom gives it a max lift height of 11 feet 5.8 inches. The height enables it to load a truck from one side to the far edge, rather than having to drive around the truck, Avant says.
