Overview
This HTS classification pertains to integral tractor shovel loaders, specifically those designed with four-wheel drive and featuring a bucket capacity ranging from at least 7.6 cubic meters up to, but not including, 11.4 cubic meters. These machines are characterized by their rear-engine mounting, a design common for optimizing weight distribution and operator visibility. They are primarily utilized for large-scale material handling operations, such as loading, excavation, and bulk material transport in construction, mining, and agricultural sectors.
The distinction of this category lies precisely in its specified bucket capacity. It is differentiated from sibling categories that cover wheel-type front-end shovel loaders with smaller bucket volumes, such as those under 1.5 m3, between 1.5 m3 and 2.2 m3, and so forth, up to the lower bound of this category. Conversely, it does not encompass loaders with a bucket capacity of 11.4 m3 or greater, which would fall into a different subcategory.
As this classification represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories or subdivisions for this specific HTS code. Classification within this category is therefore determined solely by the described characteristics: being an integral tractor shovel loader, possessing four-wheel drive, a rear-engine mounting, and the precise bucket capacity range of 7.6 m3 to under 11.4 m3.
