NESHER L880/L1400 Electric Loader - How to operate the controls

NESHER electric loaders are powerful machines yet are still simple and easy to operate. These compact electric loaders are a great addition to your farm, homestead, or small business with material handling needs. In this video, we cover the basic controls of a NESHER L880 and NESHER L1400 loader, so you can quickly and easy drive your loader off the trailer and right down onto your property for the first time!

Thank you for the video I'm very interested in what you just play the machines keep up the good work God bless you for doing this

It would be amazing to be able to ad plexiglass panels to cab and an electric car heat pump to have heating and cooling, possibly as an add on when ordering. Summers are getting really hot. I'd probably bolt a fan to the back of the cab with it as is and use an inverter on the battery bank to run it. Obviously LiFePO4 batteries being more energy dense would make running HVAC easier and could turn the loader into a portable power station. I could see the run time going down significantly running even a fan with the the AGM batteries. Have you experimented with putting a solar panel on the roof to add run time like you did for the mini-truck?

We briefly considered a roof mounted solar panel, but it just doesn't make sense. A 100W panel trying to feed a 10,000 to 15,000Wh battery would be like trying to fill a barrel with a shot glass. It would charge, but at a rate that is almost meaningless. We have one model with an enclosed cab with climate control (the L3000), but we haven't added it to our smaller machines in an effort to keep costs down. We are currently considering an 'in-between' machine that would also have an enclosed cabin but isn't as big as the L3000. Hopefully we'll have more info to share on that one in a few months.

​@@NESHER-Equipment I was thinking of something bigger like this bifacial panel. The biggest issue would be wind load and drag while transporting on the highway, but it could help off set climate control during operation and be a green trickle charge on the weekends. 1500 wh is 10% extra run time each day

Yes it's an interesting idea, but the economics just don't support it right now as a factory option. The charge rate is very slow compared to the net benefit and consideration for damage of such fragile panels on a machine designed for rigorous work. For several of our customers, mounting stationary panels on or near the loader's parking structure proves to be a better solution most of the time.
