8429.51.50.10 - Less than 44.7 kW

This HTS classification, 8429.51.50.10, specifically covers new front-end shovel loaders with an engine power rating of less than 44.7 kilowatts (kW). These machines are characterized by their self-propelled nature and a front-mounted bucket designed for loading materials. The primary function of these units is earthmoving and material handling, typically found in construction, landscaping, and agricultural applications.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by its defined engine power threshold. While all fall under new front-end shovel loaders, 8429.51.50.10 is specifically for the lower-powered models. The sibling categories, 8429.51.50.20 through 8429.51.50.50, encompass machines with progressively higher engine power ratings, ranging from at least 44.7 kW up to 119.3 kW and over. Therefore, the crucial differentiating factor for this classification is the engine's output.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. All new front-end shovel loaders with an engine power of less than 44.7 kW will be classified here. Examples include smaller-capacity skid-steer loaders or compact track loaders with engines that meet this specific kilowatt requirement, and which are equipped with a front-mounted bucket for loading operations.
