I would be interested to hear of members experiences with Hyundai Wheel Loaders, particularly the HL760-9 and what they think about Hyundai Equipment in general. Hyundai have an established dealership here in Adelaide now and are another contender in the earthmoving field. The feedback so far, is that the contractors who have Hyundai loaders are very pleased with them. We have a Hyundai SUV and we are very impressed with it, if their earthmoving equipment is built the same, it should be pretty good. RnR.
No one has any experience with Hyundai equipment? RnR.
Have a HL-770-3 and runs great with lots of power! It has the Cummins M11c and starts easy with lots of torque at 7500 hrs. My buddy has a newer HL-780-9 and had a turbo go out and a wheel seal leak but nothing major.
Thanks for the reply, AKSNOW, it is very helpful. We are considering trading up to a 760-9 and I am interested in hearing other people's experiences, good or bad, before we make a decision. RnR.
No wheel loader experience but i run 4 Hyundai excavators and have had no major problems with any of them, actually had have had hardly any minor repairs. pretty much zero downtime. Machine Hours range from 1,000-8,000
Hyundai is very popular here in new zealand, their wheel loaders are pretty damn bullet proof and same with their excavators
Thanks for the feedback, tylermckee and TrentNZ, that is very encouraging and confirms the impression I have been getting with Hyundai equipment. We are currently running Komatsu loaders and are reluctant to change, but Komatsu have let us down very badly with their back up. The opportunity is there for us to trade up to a new Hyundai 760-9 at a reasonable price, so we are looking very seriously at it. RnR.
