Product Overview

Model: 956H | Category: Wheel Loader

The 956H is a mid-range wheel loader rated at 5 t, engineered for productive bucket loading of aggregates, soil and loose rock. It pairs a fuel-efficient turbocharged engine with a strong hydraulic working hydraulic system and a comfortable ROPS/FOPS cab, making it a versatile workhorse for construction, quarry, municipal and stockpile operations worldwide.

956H Fuel-Saving Loader for Mines & Quarries

The 956H is the fuel-efficient 5 t loader aimed at mines, quarries and large stockyards where the fuel bill—not the capital price—decides the business case. Its 162 kW engine is tuned to a minimum fuel consumption of 208 g/kWh, and the compact frame keeps a 6100 mm turning radius for working around haul roads and crusher discharge points.

It loads haul trucks, transfers material between stockpiles and feeds processing plants for long daily hours. Because fuel is the dominant running cost on a 24-hour schedule, the 956H‘s lower consumption directly improves margin on every tonne moved.

Mining and quarry operators in Africa, Chile, Indonesia and the Middle East choose the 956H when they already know their tonnage and want a loader whose economics scale predictably. Yutong configures it with mine-spec guarding and a service package.

956H Highlights: Low Fuel, Tight Turning

The headline figure is 208 g/kWh minimum fuel consumption—a direct saving on every hour of continuous operation. Breakout force is a strong 175 kN and the 162 kW engine still delivers 36 km/h travel between stockpile and truck.

The 8430×3000×3370 mm compact body and 6100 mm turning radius let the 956H operate in tighter mine and quarry layouts than a longer 5 t loader, while the 16.4–16.8 t weight keeps tyre and ground pressure appropriate for soft pit floors.

Why Choose the 956H

Mining operators in Chile, Indonesia and across Africa specify the 956H for its predictable fuel bill: over a year of continuous shifts the consumption saving is a direct margin on every tonne moved, backed by a service package that fits between shifts.

How to Choose the Right Wheel Loader

Match the rated load (5 t) and bucket capacity to the truck or hopper you load — a three- to five-pass match gives the best cycle time. Choose a standard bucket for loose material and a lighter rock bucket for quarries; request a quick-coupler specification if you change attachments often.

As a leading earthmoving loader manufacturer, Yutong offers configurations — bucket or body options, tyre packages, cab choices and power options — so the machine matches your exact duty cycle rather than a generic spec.

Frequently Asked Questions — 956H

What makes the 956H fuel-saving?

Its 162 kW engine is calibrated to a minimum of 208 g/kWh, and the compact hydraulic circuit reduces wasted flow—the saving is realised over long, continuous operating hours.

Where does the fuel saving matter most?

On mine and quarry sites running 8–24 hour shifts. For occasional or municipal use the saving is smaller than the difference between the 952A and 936H.

Is the 956H strong enough for rock?

Yes—175 kN breakout force and a reinforced bucket handle quarried material; specify rock tyres and guarding for abrasive duty.

Can it work in confined mine stockpiles?

That is its design strength: the compact body and 6100 mm turning radius suit narrow stockpiles and crusher discharge points where larger loaders struggle.

What service interval package is offered?

Yutong offers mine-spec guarding, fast-drain service points and a recommended spares kit so maintenance fits between shifts rather than stopping production.

How does it compare with the 953A?

The 956H trades some structural reach for fuel economy and a tighter turning circle; choose it when running cost matters most, choose the 953A when raw digging capacity is the priority.
