The new models have a 74-hp engine and can carry a payload up to 2.6 tons.
Volvo Construction Equipment has updated its L30 and L35 compact wheel loaders with operator-focused improvements.
“These improvements set a new standard for compact loaders in this size class,” says Darren Ashton, product manager for compact equipment at Volvo. “For customers who demand efficient handling in a small package, this is it.”
Both models have a 74-hp D3.3H engine, and a maximum travel speed of 19 mph. The L30 has a bucket capacity of 1.3 cubic yards, and can carry a 2.4-ton forklift payload. The L35 has a bucket capacity of 1.6 cubic yards, and can carry a 2.6-ton forklift payload.
Operator experience updates
The dashboard has been slimmed down on the updated models, allowing for a greater range of visibility from the cab. The user display is now larger than on previous models, and the multi-function joystick has been redesigned for increased operator efficiency.
A new electro-hydraulic main control valve enhances the flow sharing among hydraulic functions. The adjustable boom and optional tilt function allow operators to set customized flow for specialty buckets or attachments. The independent hydraulic pumps provide simultaneous lifting and steering while in motion.
An 8-pin harness has been added to the boom, activated by a button on the joystick, allowing for a wider range of attachments without the need for additional wiring.
Performance updates
The new compact wheel loaders have added sensors to monitor engine and cooling performance. The standard reversible cooling fan is adjustable to handle dusty and high debris conditions. The sensors are intended to keep the operator informed of deviations in the machine’s behavior to help reduce unplanned downtime.
For easy maintenance, the loaders have ground-level service points for fuel, oil, air and hydraulic filters, battery, radiator, oil dipstick, and hydraulic oil level gauges.
