Mecalac's AS900 compact loader live at INTERMAT
RSS2441 Mecalac Group’s AS900 tele - a rigid chassis all-wheel steer, compact loader - has been given an overhaul for 2012.

The 7,250kg machine gets a new cab offering greater visibility, more internal space and quieter in-cab noise levels.

A centrally positioned seat affords a clear view of the working environment, with controls integrated into a single joystick. The cab uses two large doors, providing easy access to the cab and with generous soundproofing, the in-cab noise levels have been reduced to 72 dB(A).

The 63kW loader features a telescopic boom mounted on a slewing platform, allowing the boom and attachments to work at 90 degrees to the left and right of the machine.

    March 4, 2016
    Observing its customers' work and construction sites, Mecalac says it has been able to identify an area for improvement for wheeled excavators: their stability. “The very architecture of this type of vehicle, connected to an oscillating axle under the undercarriage and an upper carriage, gives it an intrinsically higher centre of gravity. This results in a lack of stability which leads to discomfort and insecurity,” says Mecalac. “On top of this, the inconvenient height of the cab means that the opera
