VOLVO L60E WHEEL LOADER

Technical Description

The Volvo L60E is a robust wheel loader designed for versatile material handling and construction applications. Powered by a Volvo D6D LC E2 6-liter engine, it delivers a net power of approximately 138 hp (103 kW), paired with a Volvo HT93 countershaft transmission enabling smooth gear shifting and efficient torque conversion. The machine operates with a fuel capacity of 52.1 gallons (197 liters) and features 20.5 R 25 L3 tires for durability and traction. Its operating weight is around 25,441 lbs (11,540 kg), with a static tipping load of approximately 17,284 lbs (7,840 kg), ensuring stability during lifting tasks. The L60E features a bucket with a heaped capacity of 2.4 cubic yards (2 m³), a dump clearance at maximum raise of 9 ft (3 m), and a reach at max lift and dump of 7.1 ft (2 m), optimizing load handling efficiency. The wheelbase measures about 9.9 ft (3 m), with an overall length of 23.7 ft (7 m) with bucket on ground, a width over tires of 8.1 ft (2 m), and height to the top of the cab at 10.5 ft (3 m). Ground clearance is 1.5 ft (0 m), allowing for good maneuverability on uneven terrain. Additionally, the L60E incorporates a load-sensing articulated steering system with a maximum articulation of ±40°, supporting precise control and operational safety. Its hydraulic system operates at 21 MPa with a maximum flow of 145 L/min, providing excellent breakout force and lifting power suited for heavy-duty tasks. This combination of specifications ensures reliable performance and productivity in demanding environments.
