1:50th Scale Liebherr L586 Wheel Loader
"Overslag Bedrijf Moerdijk BV"
Presented here is the limited edition, 1:50th scale Liebherr L586 wheel loader in OBM decoration from NZG. The L586 is the largest model in the wheel loader range and the model from NZG has accurately captured all the details and realism of the full sized machine.
The engine covers are accurately cast with side and top grills and cut-outs all visible, complete with metal hand rails and anti slip panels recreated on the rear wheel fenders. The rear lights are integrated into the bumper with silver and amber painted lenses while two additional rear facing work lights are integrated into the bonnet panel with the OBM logo printed on the rear and sides of the engine bay.

The striking blue and green colours of the OBM company contrast very well and the white chevron pattern around the rear counterweight is a nice touch. The front bucket features wear plate protection and well defined tooth detailing with Z bar linkage which has a good amount of movement and flexible hydraulic pipework added to the hydraulic pistons. The boom arm hydraulics are stiff allowing the bucket to be positioned at any height chosen. |

The rear axle has functional oscillation and freely rotating wheels with authentic treaded Goodyear rubber tyres whilst the articulating steering features working hydraulics and a reproduced drive shaft to the front axle. The handrails are all metal and accurately sized while the authentic diamond plate panels on the rear counterweight give the model a more realistic appearance.
The cab interior is fully reproduced with operator controls and operators seat clearly visible through the clear windows. The front debris protection screen is made of plastic and can be removed from the model by following the printed instructions.
