4 OptiShift Volvo’s OptiShift technology combines the company’s patented Reverse By Braking (RBB) technology and a torque converter with lock-up. Lock-up creates a direct drive between the engine and transmission – eliminating power losses in the torque converter and reducing fuel consumption by up to 18%.

5 Innovative fuel efficiency Since Volvo Construction Equipment began designing wheel loaders in 1954, machine owners and operators have got to know the legendary reputation of these productive, fuel efficient machines. The new H-Series wheel loaders feature state-of-the-art technology such as OptiShift – a unique technical advancement which reduces fuel consumption by up to 18% and increases machine performance. Reverse By Braking (RBB) The Volvo patented RBB function senses the loader’s direction and slows the machine when the operator changes direction by applying the service brakes automatically. This increases fuel efficiency and improves operator comfort. RBB is ideal for short cycle or truck loading applications. Eco pedal Volvo’s unique eco pedal applies mechanical push-back force when the accelerator is used excessively and engine rpm is about to exceed the economic operating range. This encourages the operator to ease off the throttle, reducing fuel consumption. APS/FAPS Automatic Power Shift (APS) and Fully Automatic Power Shift (FAPS) ensure optimal operation by adjusting the machine gears in line with parameters including engine and travel speed. This delivers fast cycle times and low fuel consumption. With APS the operator manually shifts down to first gear when more power is needed but with FAPS it’s automatic. Intelligent hydraulics Volvo’s load-sensing hydraulics supply power to the hydraulic functions according to demand, lowering fuel consumption. The powerful system ensures fast response for shorter cycle times while delivering smooth operation through superior control of both the load and the attachment.

6 Comfort boosts productivity At Volvo we know that when operators are comfortable they experience less fatigue and work more productively. That’s why Volvo’s industry-leading cab has been designed with the operator in focus – providing a spacious, safe and quiet environment that’s perfect for optimizing productivity all day long. Cab air filter The cab air intake is located high on the machine, where air is cleanest. The easy-to-replace pre-filter separates coarser dust and particles before the air passes through the main filter and finally enters the cab. Volvo’s industry-leading design allows 90% of the cab air to be recirculated through the main filter for continuous dust removal. Information panel The display clearly presents the operator with vital machine information including fuel and oil levels and warning messages – ensuring optimal operation. From the operator seat, basic configurations and tests can be performed via the panel – which is easy-to-read even in bright sunlight. Single lever control For ease of operation, the optional, multi-functional joystick gives the operator simultaneous and precise control of the hydraulic functions. Forward, reverse and kick-down functions are included on the console.

7 Volvo cab The spacious ROPS/FOPS certified cab provides a comfortable operating environment with ergonomically placed controls and ample storage space. With low internal noise levels and vibration protection, operators will experience a productive work shift.

8 TP Linkage Volvo’s unique Torque Parallel (TP) linkage delivers high breakout torque and excellent parallel movement throughout the entire lifting range.

9 Maximize your productivity and access more applications when you combine the new L150H, L180H and L220H with Volvo’s durable attachments. Whether you’re working in the rehandling, extraction, block-handling, recycling or any other application, these machines will effectively perform a variety of tasks and increase your productivity. Loaded with productivity Volvo attachments Volvo’s durable attachments have been purpose-built to work in perfect harmony with Volvo machines and increase your productivity. The attachments are designed as an integrated part of the wheel loader for which they’re intended – with functions and properties ideally matched to parameters including link-arm geometry and breakout, rim pull and lifting force. Special application options With a wide variety of options, Volvo customers can adapt their machine to access more applications such as block handling, rock, quarry and waste handling. Rehandling Bucket With its optimized shape, the Volvo-designed rehandling bucket has been built to give faster and more efficient bucket fill – leading to up to 10% better fuel efficiency. The bucket features a spill guard, side cutters in line with the bucket sides, a wear plate designed for longer service life and fewer pockets which could trap material. Boom Suspension System The optional Boom Suspension System (BSS) boosts productivity by up to 20% by absorbing shock and reducing the bouncing and bucket spillage that occurs when operating on rough ground. This enables faster and more comfortable work cycles and increases machine life.

10 Revolutionary reliability Featuring a premium Volvo Tier 4 Final/Stage IV and perfectly matched drivetrain and hydraulics, the L150H, L180H and L220H wheel loaders deliver power, productivity and reliability. Experience Volvo’s proven, advanced technology and benefit from ultimate quality and durability. Volvo engine Featuring advanced technology and built on decades of experience, the powerful Volvo Tier 4 Final/Stage IV engine delivers high performance and low fuel consumption. During the regeneration process, particulate matter collected in the DPF is burnt off without interrupting operation, performance or productivity. Reversible cooling fan The hydraulically-driven, electronically controlled cooling fan regulates the temperature of the vital components. It automatically activates only when it’s needed – reducing fuel consumption and noise. The optional reversible functionality – which blows air in the opposite direction – allows for self-cleaning of the cooling units. Axle oil cooling Both the front and the rear axle feature an axle oil circulation feature which allows the axle oil to flow and cool inside the axle – protecting components.
