The L110H enjoys all the benefits that have made the Volvo Wheel Loader so popular since 2014, including versatility, productivity, fuel efficiency and reliability. But even the best machines need to move with the times, and so we have given the L110H a comprehensive makeover that focuses on increased uptime and convenience – for operators and technicians.
The new Volvo engine automatically regenerates while working, meaning no need to stop and park up. The engine also features a new electric pump for priming the fuel system, making the procedure quicker and more convenient than with the former manual pump. And when the fuel gets to the engine you can be confident that it is clean – thanks to new captive fuel filters. These not only ensure good water separation, they also help extend engine service intervals out to 1,000 hours. What’s more, the Volvo wheel loader now features an all-new ignition strategy. Just as in Volvo articulated haulers, the ignition key now activates and powers the machine, with no need to turn on the ground-level Main Switch at the start of every shift, before climbing into the cab. Quite apart from offering added convenience to operators on start up and shutdown, it also removes the risk of the battery running flat overnight because the Main Switch has been left on. The new ignition strategy has also been designed with technicians in mind: a standard lockout-tagout (LOTO) functionality makes it easier to lock the service switch in the OFF-position, thereby preventing any unwelcome energy release when conducting maintenance work.
For improved cycle times and greater fuel efficiency, customize the lock-up engagement of your machine, with OptiShift. The technology integrates the Reverse By Braking function and a torque converter with lock-up, creating a direct drive between the engine and transmission.
The Volvo wheel loader boasts a bright, ergonomic and clever cab. Electric servo controls allow a high degree of customization, boom and bucket levelling functions and a choice of three hydraulic response modes. With the optional Comfort Drive Control, the machine can be steered from a lever – particularly useful for fast-paced truck loading operations. Attached to the seat, the adjustable armrest and levers make it easy to find exactly the right position.
