Royal Welsh Show 2026: New compact Kramers

Introduced as Kramer's smallest compact loader, the KL20.5T and KL21.5L are offered with either a telescopic or fixed boom, with respective lift capacities of 1.24 tonnes and 1.3 tonnes.

Both are powered by a 45hp Yanmar engine, with drive provided by a single-range hydrostatic transmission with three driving modes and a maximum speed of 20km/h, or an optional high-speed 30km/h drive.

The KL21.5T uses a fixed boom and can be ordered with a collapsible cabÌý

Unlike other compact handlers, Kramer uses a fixed chassis with four-wheel steering. It says this provides greater stability and manoeuvrability, with both of the new models providing a sub-2.5m turning radius.

Three cab options are available, with the telescopic version offering a fully glazed standard-size or low-height cab, and the fixed boom offered with a collapsible cab for pig and poultry applications.

Both machines can be fitted with Kramer's Smart Attach headstock, which engages the implement hydraulic connections alongside the locking pins without getting out of the cab.
