The XCMG LW500FN is a 5-ton class wheel loader with 3.0 m³ bucket, 5000 kg rated load, and 17000 kg operating weight — the classic LW500 platform that established XCMG's mid-class loader presence in coal yard, railway, construction, and stone material factory work.
162 kW rated power on a 3.05 m wheelbase. 8.1 m × 3.00 m × 3.52 m envelope. Documented Mongolian gold mine deployment per XCMG case references. The LW500FN remains in production as the cost-effective spec alongside the XC956 upgrade variant (same 3.0 m³ / 162 kW but with longer wheelbase, bigger steering angle, and upgraded hydraulics).
