OH WE DO LOVE A NEW TOY! AND THIS IS A FABULOUS PIECE OF KIT!
ITS A WELCOME ADDITION TO THE TEAM AND WILL MAKE THINGS MUCH MORE EFFICIENT. ALL GREAT FOR PRODUCTIVITY!
SO WHAT IS A LOADING SHOVEL?
A fantastic piece of machinery by Volvo that is used across various sectors to basically push waste, silage or whatever you might around! In our case our New L70 is a welcome addition being used to empty waste bays, load orries and push waste up.
SAFETY AS STANDARD
- • Anti-slip steps and strategically placed handrails

A BIT OF LOADER HISTORY
Volvo’s, or rather BM’s, first wheeled loader was the H10. But where did it come from?
To start with, engineers simply turned an agricultural tractor back-to-front. By placing the loader unit over the bigger wheels, they reasoned that it would be capable of lifting heavier loads.
The H10 wheeled loader was based on a series of different tractors, including the BM 470. The H10 was a major success at the time; it was the world’s first wheeled loader with a parallel linkage, double-acting lift rams and a purpose-designed attachment bracket.
In 1986, Volvo brought its first ‘L’ series loading shovel to the market – namely the L160. The ‘L’ designation is still in use today.
L means loader and the number indicates the full turn tipping load
FULLY LOADED
Whatever the job, we have the tools to get it done. Volvo offers a full range of Volvo buckets, including general purpose, grading,
refuse, light material, and more, to handle everything, from light material to heavy rocks. Built on decades of engineering excellence, Volvo buckets are optimized for Volvo wheel loaders and durably designed for all types of materials and tasks.
THE NEW L70 LOADING SHOVEL – AN UPDATED MODEL FOR OPTIMUM RESULTS
Its packed with innovative features that achieve up to 20% greater fuel efficiency than older models. Combining new optimized loading unit weight, redesigned counterweight, and increased top speed of 50km/h, facilitated by the optional lock-up function, the next-generation wheel loader delivers greater profitability in every load.
