What is the difference between a wheel loader and a payloader?
There's no difference — "payloader" is simply another name for a wheel loader, used interchangeably across the construction and aggregate industries. Whichever term you search, you'll find the same machines in our inventory: wheeled, bucket-equipped loaders built to scoop, carry, and dump material.
How do you size a wheel loader for your job?
Match the machine's operating weight and bucket capacity to your material and daily volume: compact wheel loaders (under 20,000 lbs, with bucket capacities around 1–2 cubic yards) suit yard work and light material handling, while standard and large wheel loaders (20,000+ lbs, 3+ cubic yard buckets) are built for quarry, aggregate, and high-volume loading.
What should you check on a used wheel loader's articulated frame?
Check the center articulation joint and pins for excess play, inspect the pivot pin bushings for wear, and look for oil leaks around the hinge point — this joint takes the most stress of any part on the machine and is the first place problems show up on a tired unit.
