When the job is high, Schaffer’s 9660 T reaches for the top
With a working weight of 11-13tonne and a lifting capacity of 5.3tonne, Schaffer’s 9660 T is ready for maximum demands.

The machine has 115kW of power and, according to Schaffer, is the largest articulated telescopic wheel loader on the market.

The maximum loading height is 6.1m and the tipping height is 5.1m – heights that other wheel loaders reach by using a high-tip bucket. As all Schäffer telescopic wheel loaders, also the 9660 T is equipped with a rear swing axle, adding to stability. The Ferro-Form sliding elements in the telescopic arm are extremely durable, unlike the usual plastic elements.

Shaffer’s elevated low-noise SCV cab - Silence/Comfort/View - ensures maximum operator comfort and good all-around view. The driver's seat can be optionally equipped with a pneumatic spring. The steering wheel can be adjusted both in height and inclination.

Also optional is the SDCT drive - Schäffer Dual Clutch Transmission that for the first time is used in combination with a hydrostatic drive. The means the hydrostatic drive can be operated extremely easily and comfortably. Schaffer said that with the SDCT, the loader achieves a thrust that until now could be reached solely with much more elaborate and still less comfortable solutions.
