Loaded with potential, the L45G and L50G wheeled loaders


...complete the line up in the 9-10 tonne class of machine with the versatility and performance of much larger models.


the optimum balance between lifting and tractive forces allows effective bucket penetration when digging or pushing into a pile. The smooth and precise pilot-operated hydraulics, meanwhile, enable the operator to comfortably control the attachment, resulting in higher productivity and comfort. Fuel use is also reduced, thanks to a load-sensing steering system that only activates when the wheel is


They may be at the smaller end of Volvo Construction Equipment’s wheeled loader range, but even with their compact design, the new L45G and L50G are big when it comes to potential. With the flexibility to work in a wide range of jobsites, these machines are fitted with a hydraulic attachment bracket for quick tool changeovers.


The L45G and L50G feature the latest emissions-compliant engines and Volvo’s patented TP Linkage, ensuring high breakout force and parallel movement throughout the entire lifting range. This combination gives high tilt-back torque and lifting power, increasing productivity when loading or rehandling, while the progressive lift helps retain loose bucket material and minimizes disturbing the load when lifting pallets. The breakout torque is also useful if a log grapple is fitted, giving total control of the load in all positions. The combination of stable load and high-reach of the linkage design allows dumping into high-sided trucks.


The L45G and L50G are all fitted with Volvo’s four-litre, four-cylinder turbocharged off-highway diesel engine and as its bigger brothers, it features cooled gas recirculation and a particulate filter with active regeneration. Producing between 73 and 85 kW (99-116 hp) the D4 engine also leads the industry in terms of fuel efficiency, reliability and noise. The production of torque and power at low engine speeds, combined with load-sensing hydraulics, removes the need to overrun the engine, which in turn extends engine life, lowers fuel use and reduces noise.


Load-sensing hydraulics deliver power to hydraulic functions only when needed, eliminating unnecessary oil pumping. Maintaining


turned. An inch brake pedal allows further machine control. Applying light pressure on the pedal slows the machine using the hydraulic transmission only, while firmer pressure engages the axle brakes – useful if working on an incline.


Servicing is made easy with the G-Series, with daily pre-start items quickly checked and scheduled service items conveniently grouped together. The engine cover also provides good ventilation of the engine compartment. It gives good access for fast and easy cleaning or servicing duties. And consumables like filters are easy to reach and easy to replace. The rear axles are supported on maintenance- free cradles and include greased-for-life bearings and bushings that reduce service requirements.
