front loader
Scoop-armed heavy equipment
A front loader is a machine that loads from the front rather than the top or side.
Most commonly it's a washing machine with a door on the front face: Front loaders use less water than top loaders.
It also refers to heavy equipment—a tractor or vehicle with a bucket attachment on the front for scooping and moving earth, gravel, or debris.
