Used LiuGong CLG856 5 Ton Wheel Loader for Sale

The used LiuGong CLG856 wheel loader is a proven 5-ton-class machine designed for contractors, equipment dealers and fleet operators that need dependable material-handling capacity at a practical investment cost.

The machine shown in the photos is marked LiuGong 856 rather than 856H. It uses the earlier CLG856 platform with an articulated frame, four large loader tires, hydraulic lifting arms and an enclosed cab. This model is widely suited to construction sites, aggregate yards, road projects and general earthmoving work.

For international buyers seeking a used 5 ton wheel loader, the CLG856 offers a useful combination of loading capacity, simple diesel power and easy access to common service parts.

LiuGong CLG856 Reference Specifications

Specifications can vary by production year, engine configuration and optional bucket. Reference data for the conventional LiuGong 856 lists a 5,000 kg rated load, about 16,800 kg operating weight and 162 kW rated engine power. The model was offered with different engine configurations, including Dongfeng Cummins and Weichai diesel engines.

These figures should be treated as reference values. The serial plate and physical machine configuration should always be confirmed before an order is finalized.

5,000 kg Loading Capacity for Everyday Heavy Work

The CLG856 belongs to the established 5-ton wheel loader category.

Its 5,000 kg rated load makes it suitable for moving sand, gravel, soil, crushed stone and other common bulk materials. Therefore, one machine can serve several types of projects instead of being limited to a single application.

A general-purpose bucket around 3.0 m³ is commonly associated with this class, while different bucket sizes can be selected for lighter or denser materials. Reference information for the 856 platform lists bucket options extending from about 1.8 to 5.6 m³.

162 kW Diesel Power for Consistent Loading Cycles

Reference specifications list 162 kW at 2,200 rpm for the conventional LiuGong 856. Depending on the production batch, engines may include Cummins or Weichai configurations.

This power level gives the loader enough reserve for repeated bucket loading, stockpile work and short-distance transport.

At the same time, the mechanical layout of this generation is familiar to many heavy-equipment technicians. That can be useful for buyers operating fleets in regions where straightforward maintenance and parts availability are important.

Strong Hydraulic Performance for Dense Materials

A wheel loader must do more than carry weight. It also needs enough digging force to fill the bucket efficiently.

The conventional 856 is listed with roughly 158–160 kN maximum breakout force and about 160 kN maximum traction force.

As a result, the machine is well suited to loading compacted soil, aggregate and construction material.

Its Z-bar-style loader linkage also provides strong bucket movement during digging and loading operations.

Articulated Chassis for Better Site Maneuverability

The CLG856 uses an articulated steering system.

Instead of steering only through the wheels, the front and rear sections of the machine pivot around the central joint. This helps the loader turn more easily in stockyards, construction sites and loading areas where space is limited.

The reference steering angle is around 38 degrees to either side, while the wheelbase is approximately 3,315 mm.

Large 23.5-25 tires also provide a broad contact area for work on gravel, soil and uneven ground.

Enclosed Cab for Daily Operator Use

The photos show an enclosed operator cab with large front and side windows.

This design gives the operator a clear view of the bucket, front tires and nearby working area. The cab also includes conventional steering and hydraulic controls, which keeps operation simple for experienced loader drivers.

Before export, buyers can request checks of the steering, transmission, gauges, lighting, brakes and hydraulic controls.

Practical Service Access

Used machinery should be easy to inspect and maintain.

The rear engine compartment of the LiuGong 856 provides access to major powertrain and cooling components. This helps technicians perform routine servicing, fluid checks and basic repairs without excessive dismantling.

For used equipment, we recommend checking the engine, transmission, hydraulic cylinders, central articulation joint, axles, brake system, tires and bucket linkage before shipment.

Suitable for Multiple Industries

A used LiuGong 856 loader can support many commercial applications, including:

• Construction and earthmoving
• Quarry and aggregate loading
• Sand and gravel yards
• Road construction
• Concrete batching plants
• Mining support work
• Industrial material handling
• Agricultural bulk-material loading
• Municipal engineering projects
• Equipment rental fleets

Because it uses a common 5-ton loader configuration, it can also be attractive to machinery dealers supplying contractors in Africa, Southeast Asia, the Middle East and South America.

Used LiuGong CLG856 for International Buyers

For B2B buyers, machine condition is just as important as the model.

Before purchasing, the working hours, production year, engine model, transmission response, hydraulic performance, tire condition and bucket wear should be confirmed for the individual unit.

As a used construction machinery supplier, we can provide detailed machine photos, operating videos, condition information and export-loading support according to the order.
