CLEAN PERFORMANCE. RESPONSIVE PRODUCTIVITY

LM Standard and LM Elite telehandlers are powered by Tier 4A NEF 4.5litre, four-cylinder engines. Proven in the New Holland T6 tractor models, these exceptionally clean running engines have a long 600 hour service interval and a proven economy and dependability record. Rated power outputs are 110hp for the LM standard and 129hp for the LM Elite. These figures climb to 121hp and 143hp as engine speed drops to 1,800rpm (1,900rpm for Elite). Maximum output for the predecessor LM5000 models was 120hp. To minimise power loss, the engine flywheel connects directly to the transmission via a heavy-duty 280mm torque convertor, a transfer box directing power to the front and rear axles. LM Standard and LM Elite models achieve a maximum 40km/hr transport speed and on both ranges transport mode is automatically engaged in 3rd gear or at speeds exceeding 12km/hr. This locks the rear steering wheels in the straight-ahead position, allowing steering from the front axle only.

UP TO 10% FUEL SAVINGS

When compared to the predecessor LM5000 handler range, the latest Tier 4A compliant power units are not only quieter and more powerful, but they are also up to 10% more economical too.

REVERSING FANS KEEP EVERYTHING COOL

Every 6 minutes, the engine and cooling package fan reverses direction for 15 seconds. This helps blow dust and contaminants from the engine radiator, oil cooler and intercooler and also helps keep the external engine hood screens free of debris. Working to the same cycle, two separate electrical fans reverse to clean the air conditioning, fuel cooler and transmission radiators.

LM STANDARD TRANSMISSION KEEPS IT SIMPLE

A full powershift 4F/3R (four-forward and three-reverse speed) transmission is fitted to LM Standard models, with clutch free changes between each gear. The operator chooses the speeds using buttons on the consolemounted joystick. Direction changes are made via a forward reverse shuttle lever on the steering column.

LM ELITE OFFERS AUTO FEATURES

LM Elite models feature a powershift 6F/3R (six-forward and three-reverse speed) transmission with the ability to select Auto mode. Effective in speeds 4, 5 and 6, Auto mode will select the most appropriate gear in relation to engine and forward speed and is well suited to transport duties.

MANOEUVRABILITY AND STEERING MODES

When all-wheel steering is engaged, LM Standard and Elite telehandlers will turn in a radius of just 3.9m. In transport, front wheel steering is automatically selected, LM Elite models also feature auto wheel alignment when switching between, all-wheel, crab and front steering.

FULL TIME 4WD AND AUTO TRACTION CONTROL

As standard, LM Standard and LM Elite telehandlers have full-time 4WD (fourwheel drive). A front limited slip differential is standard. Purpose developed for telehandler applications, the differential directs up to 45% of available torque across the axle to ensure the wheel with the greatest traction always get power. A locking rear differential is an option and comes as standard on Elite models.

HYDRAULIC WET DISK BRAKES

Designed to offer long life with minimal maintenance, the sealed wet disc brakes in both of the LM axles are designed to operate at higher transport speeds. When towing, the standard hydraulic trailer braking circuit is connected to the handlers’ brakes to enhance safety. The parking brake* is activated via a dash mounted switch.
