Doosan DL500

Wheel Loader

Powerful Performance for Heavy-Duty Work

The Doosan DL500 Wheel Loader is a heavy-duty machine designed for demanding construction, quarrying, mining, and material-handling applications. Manufactured from 2008 to 2013, the DL500 combines high lifting power, a large bucket capacity, and strong operating performance. Its 30.7-ton operating weight provides excellent stability when handling heavy loads, while the 4.8 m³ bucket helps move large amounts of material efficiently. This makes the Doosan DL500 a practical choice for businesses that need reliable production and strong performance on demanding job sites.

Large 4.8 m³ Bucket Capacity

The Doosan DL500 comes with a 4.8 cubic meter bucket capacity, allowing operators to move significant quantities of soil, sand, gravel, aggregates, and other materials with fewer loading cycles. The large bucket is especially useful in quarrying, aggregate handling, road construction, and large-scale earthmoving projects. By carrying more material with each cycle, the DL500 can help improve productivity and reduce the time required to complete loading operations.

Strong Lifting Force of 273 kN

Heavy-duty loading requires strong hydraulic performance, and the DL500 provides a lifting force of 273 kN. This lifting capability allows the machine to handle substantial loads while maintaining stable operation. Whether loading trucks or moving materials around a construction site, the strong lifting force supports demanding applications and helps operators work efficiently throughout the day.

30.7-Ton Operating Weight

With an operating weight of approximately 30.7 tons, the Doosan DL500 offers the stability required for heavy-duty material handling. Its substantial weight helps keep the machine balanced when the bucket is fully loaded and raised. This makes it suitable for demanding applications where stability, traction, and dependable performance are essential.

3.4-Meter Bucket Width

The DL500 features a bucket width of approximately 3.4 meters. This wide bucket allows the machine to collect and move large quantities of material during each loading cycle. The bucket size is well suited to large work areas where high productivity is more important than compact dimensions. It can be used for handling aggregates, construction materials, earth, and other bulk materials.

Maximum Discharge Height of 4.58 Meters

The Doosan DL500 offers a maximum discharge height of 4.58 meters, giving operators the ability to load a wide range of high-sided trucks and containers. This height is particularly useful in quarrying, aggregate processing, and construction applications. The machine can raise the bucket high enough to transfer material efficiently while reducing the need for additional handling equipment.

Travel Speed Up to 35 km/h

With a maximum travel speed of 35 km/h, the DL500 can move efficiently between different working areas. Good travel speed is important on large construction sites, quarries, and material-handling operations where the loader may need to travel between loading and dumping locations. The DL500 balances its heavy-duty size with useful mobility for daily site operations.

Practical Transport Dimensions

The Doosan DL500 has a transport width of 3.53 meters and a transport height of 3.4 meters. These dimensions are important when planning machine transportation between job sites. Operators and fleet managers can use the transport measurements to determine suitable transport equipment and routes before moving the wheel loader.

7.37-Meter Outside Turning Radius

The DL500 has an outside turning radius of approximately 7.37 meters. This provides the maneuverability needed for a large wheel loader while working in demanding environments. Understanding the turning radius is important when planning loading areas, truck positions, stockpiles, and work zones. Proper site planning can help the operator complete loading cycles more efficiently.

Air Conditioning for Operator Comfort

Operator comfort plays an important role during long working shifts. The Doosan DL500 can be equipped with air conditioning, helping create a more comfortable cab environment during operation. A comfortable operator can maintain better concentration during extended work periods, especially when the machine is working in demanding conditions.

Designed for Construction Applications

The Doosan DL500 is suitable for a wide range of construction tasks. Its large bucket, strong lifting force, and heavy operating weight make it useful for earthmoving, loading, stockpiling, and general material handling. Contractors can use the machine to load trucks, move construction materials, clear work areas, and transport bulk materials across job sites.

Suitable for Quarrying and Aggregate Handling

Quarries and aggregate facilities require machines capable of handling large quantities of heavy materials. The DL500’s 4.8 m³ bucket and 273 kN lifting force make it well suited to these environments. It can handle materials such as crushed stone, gravel, sand, and aggregates. Its heavy-duty design supports repetitive loading cycles where productivity and stability are essential.

Efficient Material Handling

The Doosan DL500 is built around efficient material handling. A large bucket means more material can be moved per cycle, while its lifting capacity supports heavy loads. The combination of bucket capacity, lifting force, and travel speed helps reduce unnecessary downtime between loading tasks. This can make the DL500 a useful addition to fleets working on large-scale projects.

Reliable Choice for Heavy-Duty Operations

For companies looking for a large wheel loader, the Doosan DL500 offers a combination of 30.7-ton operating weight, 4.8 m³ bucket capacity, 273 kN lifting force, and 35 km/h travel speed. These specifications make it suitable for demanding environments where machines must perform repeated loading and material-handling tasks.

Simple and Practical Machine Specification

The DL500 provides straightforward specifications for businesses comparing heavy wheel loaders. Its large bucket supports high-volume material handling, while the high lifting force provides the power needed for heavy loads. The 4.58-meter maximum discharge height also makes the machine practical for loading large trucks and containers.
