Mid-size wheel loaders join Volvo offering

Volvo has added two mid-sized articulated wheel loaders, the  L45F and L50F, to its F-Series range.

The machines have full turn tipping loads of 5t and 5.9t respectively and come with Volvo’s Torque Parallel loader linkage. They feature separate power steering and load-sensing hydraulic pumps, locking differentials and Volvo’s Care cab on viscous mounts.

Both are powered by 4.8-litre Volvo D5 engines producing 73kW and 85kW respectively. A Z-bar linkage and cab-operated hydraulic attachment locking system are optional.
