VOLVO L50G WHEEL LOADER

The Volvo L50G is a compact wheel loader designed for versatile heavy equipment applications such as construction, earth moving, truck loading, landscaping, and recycling. It is powered by a Volvo D4H four-cylinder, turbocharged diesel engine with a displacement of 244.1 cubic inches, producing 114 hp (85 kW) net power at 1900 rpm and a peak torque measured at 1450 rpm. The hydrostatic transmission features 3 forward and 3 reverse gears, reaching maximum speeds of 25 mph (40 kph) in both directions. The loader’s operating weight is approximately 20,746 lbs (9,410 kg), with a rated bucket capacity ranging from 1.8 to 3 cubic yards (1 to 2 m³). The L50G delivers a breakout force of 16,186 lbs (7,342 kg), aided by Volvo’s Torque Parallel linkage system which provides high breakout torque and parallel movement throughout the lifting range. Its compact dimensions include a bucket width of 7.4 ft (2 m), a height to the top of the cab of 9.8 ft (3 m), and a length of 21.2 ft (6 m) with the bucket on the ground. Ground clearance is 1.5 ft (0.45 m), and the wheelbase is 8.7 ft (2.65 m). Hydraulics are powered by an axial piston pump with a flow capacity of 34.9 gal/min (129 l/min), enabling a dump time of 1.6 seconds and a raise time of 6.4 seconds. The machine runs on 24V electrical systems with a 110 A alternator. Fuel capacity is 39.7 gallons (148 liters), hydraulic system fluid holds 25.1 gallons (95 liters), and cooling and lubricating systems are sized to ensure sustained operation and reliability in demanding environments. The L50G is engineered for performance, durability, and operator comfort in compact loader applications.
