Volvo Puts New Engines in L110H, L120H Loaders

Models L110H and L120H Volvo wheel loaders have new engines that automatically regenerate while working. The Volvo D8M 8-liter engine provides 256 and 272 horsepower, respectively.

The engine has a new electric pump for priming the fuel system, making the process quicker and more convenient than with the former manual pump. New captive fuel filters extend engine service intervals to 1,000 hours.

Operating weights on the Volvo loaders are 45,635 to 47,620 pounds for the L120H and 39,680 to 45,635 pounds for the L110H.

The Volvo loader upgrades also include an all-new ignition strategy, whereby the ignition key activates and powers the machine with no need to turn on the ground-level main switch at the start of every shift. It also removes the risk of the battery dying overnight when the main switch is accidentally left on.

Loaders include Co-Pilot tablet and on-board weighing as a standard feature.

A lockout-tagout makes it easier to lock the battery disconnect switch in the off position and prevent an unwelcome energy release when performing maintenance.

The Volvo L110H and Volvo L120H also have the new-generation Co-Pilot tablet and on-board weighing as a standard feature. The larger, higher-resolution screen will display Load Assist applications like on-board weighing, operator coaching, and tire pressure monitoring.
