2026 Weidemann Hoftrac 1140 Basic Line

Hoftrac 1140 Basic Line - A good foundation
Purchasing a farm loader often means a large investment for small farms. Many part-time farmers also have to consider purchasing such a farm loader very carefully. Weidemann configured the Hoftrac 1140 Basic Line specifically with this market segment in mind. An interesting price advantage could be achieved by reducing various components from the series configuration of the 1140. Weidemann thus offers an economical machine that can be used to complete many daily tasks without any problems.

Suitable engine without exhaust gas aftertreatment

The great advantage of the standard engine is that it complies with exhaust gas standard stage V, but does not require any exhaust gas aftertreatment. This motorization is well suited for light-duty applications, such as simple material handling.
The standard engine is a 3-cylinder engine, which impresses with a high torque with corresponding efficiency. The fact that this engine does not require exhaust aftertreatment automatically reduces maintenance costs.

ecs (Easy Coupler System)

Thanks to the Weidemann ecs (Easy Coupler System), hydraulically driven attachments can be changed completely from the driver's seat, in an easy and safe manner. The operator does not have to get off the machine to manually connect the hydraulic couplings.
This increases safety for the operator, protects the environment and also saves a considerable amount of time.

Compact dimensions for optimal maneuverability

Compact dimensions and directional stability ensure optimum mobility and high maneuverability of the machine.
The dimension of the machine are ideal. This makes it possible to work even in confined spaces.

Maximum traction through articulated pendulum joint

The articulated pendulum joint enables all four wheels to maintain traction control even on uneven terrain. This increases the productivity of the machine and gives the operator optimum control.
The optimal ratio of articulation and swing angle ensures high traction control. This makes it easy to maneuver the machine. Even in confined spaces, there is no collision between the front and rear sections of the machine.
The front and rear carriages can swing independently of each other. The operator can thus react sensitively to every bump. This increases comfort and creates a safe feeling while driving.

Safe overhead guard with restraint system

An overhead guard with restraint system is fitted as standard on the compact Weidemann Hoftracs. The overhead guard and the restraint system for the operator comply with the safety provisions of the current European Machinery Directive according for ROPS (Roll Over Protective Structure) and FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure). The overhead guard thus fulfills all legal requirements and offers maximum safety.
The overhead guard ensures good all-round visibility: The operator always has the work area and the immediate environment of the machine in view. This increases safety when working with the machine.
Depending on the model, a front and rear window are available to better protect the operator from the effects of the weather.

Ballast weight

The machine can be equipped with a ballast weight (floor plate on the rear carriage) and/or cast iron rear weight. This means that heavier loads can be transported thanks to the higher tipping load.
The increased tipping load expands the range of applications, as larger attachments can be operated and heavier loads can be moved with the same machine.

Features may include:

Quality
High-quality powder coating

• Compared to conventional wet painting, powder coating increases corrosion protection. It thus prolongs the value preservation of the machine to a great extent. In addition, the process is based on powder recovery. Therefore, it is particularly environmentally friendly.
• The durable powder coating guarantees value retention and ensures an accordingly high resale value for the machine.

Efficiency
Work efficiently

• Efficiency is one of the most important characteristics that machines should have for efficient application. That’s because the faster and more timesaving a machine maneuvers, the higher is its work output.
• In Weidemann machines, economic efficiency stands for technically sophisticated solutions, such as powerful drive, strong tearing forces, high-performance kinematics, high maneuverability, excellent stability and an efficient rapid-change system for attachments.
• Other factors that speak for economic efficiency: low wear, high-quality powder coating, hardened pins, good accessibility to service, high cylinder speeds and flexible driving speeds.

Efficient change of attachments

• The hydraulic rapid-change system allows attachments to be exchanged conveniently and quickly. The good view of the rapid-change plate makes changing attachments particularly easy.
• Changing the attachments is extremely safe thanks to the 2-hand operation when de-coupling.
• The machine is immediately ready for use again after changing the attachment. This increases productivity and improves economic efficiency.

Safety

Two powerful lifting cylinders

• Two powerful lifting cylinders guarantee that the load distribution is always optimally transferred to the loading arm. The entire loading system also gains in stability. A plus in terms of safety for the operator.
• The stable loading arm together with two lifting cylinders prevents damage to the loader unit through torsion in the best possible way. This reduces service costs and increases the value preservation of the machine.

Twin tires

• The machine is equipped with two additional tires on the front axle. The additional tires widen the contact surface of the loader, which results in greater stability.

Easy entry and exit

• In just a few steps, the operator can comfortably enter the cab or operator's platform of the machine. This is made possible by the large, non-slip steps and the easy-to-reach handholds. This increases operator safety when getting in and out of the machine.

Performance

Perfectly tuned P-kinematics

• The P-kinematics are characterized by exact parallel guidance over the entire stroke range. Unintentional rolling out is not possible. This makes handling easy and safe for the operator.

Optimum tires

• The right tires for a machine play an important role in practical application. If the tires are matched to the ground and the application, the operator can work optimally with the machine.
• Selecting the right tires ensures maximum traction as well as minimum wear and a pleasant running smoothness of the machine. These aspects also increase the service life of the tires and at the same time increase economic efficiency.
• Different profiles are available depending on the model so as to achieve optimum performance on every ground: EM profile, AS profile, SureTrax profile, RP profile, MPT profile, Multiuse profile and Bibload profile. This ensures maximum flexibility in machine configuration ex works.

Variety

Folding overhead guard eps (Easy Protection System)

• Optionally, the Weidemann Hoftracs can also be equipped with the folding overhead guard eps (Easy Protection System). The eps can be folded down manually for a low clearance height in just a few steps. The eps complies with the safety requirements of the current European Machinery Directive for ROPS (Roll Over Protective Structure) and FOPS (Falling Object Protective Structure).
• The eps increases the flexibility of the machine, as low passages can also be passed. This allows the machine to adapt to the spatial conditions accordingly.

Transport on car trailer

• Save time and transport costs: The machines can be easily transported on a car trailer thanks to compact dimensions and low weight.
• The lashing points are optimally attached to the machine. This ensures that transport lock can be carried out in accordance with standards.
• Depending on the machine type and equipment, transport can also include the attachment.

Maintenance

Very good service access due to tiltable driver's cab

• The driver's cab can be tilted to the side in a few easy steps. This allows uncomplicated access to the engine, hydraulic system and electrics. This greatly simplifies the monitoring and maintenance of the machine.
• Easy and quick maintenance maximizes the availability of the machine and optimizes the operating costs.

Maintenance-friendly hydraulic hosing

• Short hydro connections are generally installed on Weidemann machines. This means that the hoses are split at several places. If a hydro connection needs to be replaced; only the affected part is replaced. This means that there is no need to replace the entire hose connection in the hydraulic circuit. This speeds up repair times enormously and is also cost-efficient.

Comfort

Adjustable steering column

• The steering column can be individually adjusted to suit the operator's needs. This ensures that every operator can work with the machine in an ergonomic and focused manner.

Eco-friendliness

Current emission standard and suitable engine

• When implementing the current emissions directive for the reduction of exhaust gases and pollutants, it is important not to compromise in terms of performance, service life or economic efficiency of the machines, despite strict regulations. To implement this directive, Weidemann uses the latest engine technologies. These are equipped with various exhaust gas after-treatment systems.
• Each machine can be equipped with the motorization appropriate for its size class. This prevents under- or over-motorization, which in turn ensures fuel-efficient and economical operation.
