VOLVO L45G WHEEL LOADER

The Volvo L45G is a compact wheel loader engineered for versatile performance on diverse job sites. Powered by a Volvo D4H turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 244.1 cu in, it delivers 98 hp (73 kW) net power at 1800 rpm and 299 lb-ft of torque at 1450 rpm. The hydrostatic transmission offers three forward and three reverse gears, enabling a maximum speed of 25 mph (40 kph) in both directions. The loader’s operational weight is approximately 19,026 lbs (8,630 kg). The bucket features a breakout force of 13,938 lbs (6,322 kg) and a width of 7.4 ft (2 m), with a rated bucket capacity of 2.0 cubic yards (1.5 m³). It provides a dump clearance at maximum raise of 9.2 ft (3 m) and a reach of 3.1 ft (1 m) at max lift and dump. Key dimensions include an overall length of 20.9 ft (6 m) with bucket on the ground, a wheelbase of 8.7 ft (2.7 m), width over tires of 7.2 ft (2.2 m), ground clearance of 1.5 ft (0.45 m), and a top cab height of 9.9 ft (3 m). The hydraulic system, driven by an axial piston pump with a flow capacity of 34.9 gal/min (129 l/min), features a raise time of 5.3 seconds, dump time of 1.1 seconds, and a lower time of 3.2 seconds. Operating fluid capacities include 39.7 gal (150 l) fuel, 25.1 gal (95 l) hydraulic system, and 3.7 gal (14 l) engine oil. Electrical power is supplied at 24 V with a 110 A alternator. The L45G’s compact dimensions and robust linkage deliver both high breakout torque and parallel lift movement, optimizing productivity in construction, landscaping, recycling, and earthmoving tasks.
