Weidemann t6027

[valtraman]

I have had a demo of one of these and it’s a nice machine, anybody else running one ? How’s it going ? Same as Kramer 276 I believe

We’ve just taken a franchise and sold our first one- it’s a lovely little thing! Lots of nice features, plus 3 year warranty. No long term experience yet, but reviews during the research before we took the franchise on were glowing to be fair.

Running one for 6 mths; clocked 500hrs+, fast hyd, good cycling times, very movable in buildings;had new load sensor, pick up hitch ram, hitch vavle, total new spool block, compensation ram( mainly due to a vavle breaking up), ran with manitou 627 before for 10 years, class that as sumo wrestler & Kramer be a ninja turtle.
Seem bit slow getting parts, or could just be strange times we are in.

So are the Kramer and weidemann totally identical and what was the difference in price

 

[NHMatt]

The Kramer and the Weidemann are identical bar the bonnet style- they’re built in the same factory. Prices are comparable.

Did sit in a Kramer version at local jd dealer think he said they could finance them through the jd finance
local Massey guy sells nueson diggers think he said there’s a version they sell as well

Yep, Kramer and Weidemann are both owned by Wacker Neuson so the compact telehandlers are all the same machine as far as I know. Weidemann UK only import the high spec machines, so there’s no nasty surprises like having to spec PUH, aircon etc.- it’s all standard.

 

[valtraman]

Huge difference in price I’m finding . Weidemann lot dearer

I thought kramer was mixed up with jd recently as the jd dealers round here are all sellin them now. Also on the non side boom models are wiedemann not pivot steer and kramer steering axles?

That’s correct- JD own a share in Kramer, but Kramer only as far as I know. Only the compact telehandlers are the same, so you’re right- the Weidemann loaders are pivot steers, while the Kramers are steering axles.
