powered attachments, offering the flexibility and speed today’s agricultural operations demand. The T7042’s tight turning radius makes it a compact, agile all-rounder for confined operations. Weidemann’s advanced engine technologies and cutting-edge exhaust after-treatment systems meet current emissions standards, while precisely matched engines tailored to each size class ensure fuel-efficient operation and optimal power. Operator safety and comfort are central to Weidemann’s design philosophy, exemplified by the Best View cabin. Its 4-pillar structure, panoramic rear windshield and curved front glass deliver exceptional all-round visibility, even with the boom extended, while a sloped engine hood improves sightlines to the rear wheel and surrounding area, ensuring outstanding situational awareness. Ergonomic controls, a colour- coded interface, sprung joystick console and 7-inch display enhance usability, while an adjustable steering wheel, anti-slip steps, and accessible handles support safe entry. Adaptive lighting and halogen work lights across the cab and telescopic arm create a fatigue-reducing, productivity-boosting environment. Quality is a Weidemann standard rooted in precision engineering and customer trust. Every machine delivered from Korbach, one of Europe’s most advanced telehandler production hubs, reflects a commitment to quality, safety and efficiency. The T7042 is built not only to perform, but to endure, translating into real-world gains for every operation. “The fact that we offer a five- year, 6 000-hour warranty on the T7042, more than double the industry standard, underscores our absolute confidence in the telehandler’s quality and reinforces our commitment to long-term customer support,” stresses Le Roux. Building on this pledge, Wacker Neuson South Africa is establishing a dedicated dealer network focused exclusively on the Weidemann brand to ensure on-the- ground support across the region. “The appointment of specialist Weidemann dealers reflects our investment in sustainable long-term growth and regional empowerment by building a responsive, locally anchored support ecosystem that puts our customers first,” affirms Le Roux. He concludes: “We invite those who share our vision, energy and belief in the future of African agriculture to join the young, dynamic Weidemann family. Please reach out, let’s connect, collaborate and grow the future of African agriculture.” b

compact, articulated wheel loader that revolutionised agricultural work that remains an indispensable everyday helper on farms around the world, valued for its versatility, reliability and compact power. Weidemann’s trajectory took a pivotal turn in 2005 when it was acquired by Wacker Construction Equipment AG, marking the beginning of yellow wheel loader production for the construction industry. The major merging of Neuson Kramer Baumaschinen AG and Wacker Construction Equipment AG two years later, led to the formation of Wacker Neuson SE, solidifying Weidemann’s place within a larger industrial group. In 2021, Weidemann launched the T7042 alongside the T7035 to meet evolving demands in
agricultural and industrial operations. Engineered for efficiency and built for productivity, the T7042 achieves economic efficiency through integrated technically sophisticated design solutions that combine powerful drive performance,
strong thrust forces and dynamic kinetics to deliver high productivity
across every task. The advanced quick- hitch hydraulic system enables fast, comfortable attachment changes, with excellent visibility of the hitch plate for easy, intuitive swaps. A safe two-handed uncoupling mechanism adds an extra layer of operator protection while maximising uptime. With high hydraulic output and exceptional machine stability, the T7042 supports a wide range of hydraulically
