Hi Guys,
This unusual little loader/tool carrier was working on a site that I was on last week.
It was being used by a team of monoblock layers to move sand and packs of blocks.
I had not heard of this German firm before Weidemann

Re: Unusual little machine spotted!!
They are not that unusual in Sweden but I guess it depends on the importers.
A friend of mine has a Weidemann (unknown size) in his business. He uses it just like the one on your pictures.
I could use a loader that size myself (or a Volvo L25) but I can´t afford it right now. I have other more important needs first.
Edit:
Nick, you seem to find machines to photograph every day. I guess that you even sleep with your camera besides you.

Yes I have to admit it has become something of an obsession!! A constant quest to find new material for my friends at Maskinisten & CMN !!

Re: Unusual little machine spotted!!
Weidemann are owned by Wacker AG the German manufactuer of compaction and light construction equipment, who are currently merging with Neuson to form Wacker-Neuson.
Weidemann products are also sold under the Wacker brand.

Neuson has an interesting line of products and they also have a another loader brand in house (Kramer) before their merge with Wacker.

Re: Unusual little machine spotted!!
Weidemann were first imported into the uk by CANT's of Framlingham who in tern appointed F.E.Weatherill as their agents. Weatherills sold quite a few machines all around the UK they also under took them on a heavy schedule of Plant and County shows. The range at that time was the 1002, 1702, 2002 and the 3002. When Weatherills and Cant's closed I think the importer became Small Loaders in Norfolk. I will try and dig out some pictures that I have of the machines at work around the uk.

Re: Unusual little machine spotted!!
Thanks for the pics.I had heard of them,but not seen one.Looks like a handy sized weapon.
I notice my local excavator agent is selling Wacker-Neuson gear recently.
Is Neuson an old company?

Re: Unusual little machine spotted!!
These machines are quite popular in agriculture for getting into buildings with low roofs.

John what period were Weatherill selling them? Late 70s?
