Hanomag HD60C – German tractor backhoe loader from Hanover with a water-cooled diesel engine, 56 kW/75 hp output, a front loader bucket and a rear digging arm
Hanomag is a long-established German machinery builder from Hanover that, alongside tractors and trucks, also built construction equipment and supplied the building trade with wheel loaders, excavators and backhoe loaders for decades. The HD60C recorded here belongs to the company's HD range, the tractor backhoe loaders that combined a front loader and a digging arm on a common chassis.

The HD60C is powered by a water-cooled diesel engine delivering 56 kW, or 75 hp, driving both the front loader and the rear digging arm from a single engine bay on the tractor-based chassis.
As a tractor backhoe loader, the HD60C combines a front loader bucket with a rear digging arm, placing it among the wheeled, road-legal construction machines that can travel between job sites under their own power. In Germany, this layout was for decades the standard machine for pipeline work, drainage and municipal earthworks, where versatility matters more than the digging depth of a dedicated tracked excavator.
When buying one used, check the condition of the cooling system and seals of the diesel engine, since leaks in the water-cooled unit can lead to overheating. The backhoe hydraulics, front axle and steering should be checked for play and tightness, and for a brand discontinued decades ago like Hanomag, spare parts are mainly sourced through specialist dealers and remanufacturers.
