The operator’s favorite
Operators can stay in-the-know and focussed on the task at hand thanks to all essential in-cab information conveniently displayed on two screens. The interactive, integrated Volvo Co-Pilot display offers easy control over essential functions such as media, camera settings, climate control, and machine status. This is combined with the dynamic instrument cluster, positioned in front of the steering wheel, which provides essential vehicle data at-a-glance.
Ride in comfort
Even in the most demanding off-road conditions, the A60 is designed to keep operators safe, comfortable and working their best thanks to the excellent suspension, low noise levels, and outstanding handling and smooth gear shifts provided by the Volvo drivetrain, including the new Volvo transmission and OptiShift functionality.
In and out with ease
Enter and exit with safety and ease thanks to the repositioned door entrance, which allows the door to be comfortably opened while standing on the roomy platform. Railings on both sides of the machine further add to the safe access, while the new entrance light guides operators up the stairs without glare or discomfort. Focused lighting further ensures clear visibility on both the stairs and platform.
A new level in comfort
Experience a new level of operator comfort and convenience when you step inside the comfortable, customizable and low-noise cab. With more storage, a cool/heat box, new premium seat options and enhanced connectivity – including Bluetooth connection, USB sockets, four speakers and a microphone – operators will enjoy an in-cab experience like no other. Simplify cleaning with hanging pedals and rear drainage for effortless dirt and debris removal, while the redesigned floor mat, now in three separate pieces, facilitates easier handling and cleaning.
Ergonomic gear lever
The new ergonomic gear lever effortlessly returns to the center position after use. The result is a smoother operation, reducing operator strain and enhancing comfort and operator productivity during long work shifts.
Designed for operator performance
Features including hill assist, cruise control, downhill speed control, load and dump brake and dynamic Volvo Engine Brake help operators achieve optimum results all day, every day. With the new dump support system, an angle sensor for side inclination has been added to the trailer unit and a visible alarm level can be set. This enables the operator to see what side tilt the trailer has before unloading, further supporting the operator and enhancing safety.
Enhanced visibility
With redesigned hood and cab panels, and wider wiper coverage, operators benefit from a direct field of vision which exceeds industry standards. Visibility is further enhanced by the optional front and rear cameras, and standard entrance camera. Camera views are easily managed using Volvo Co-Pilot, with options for both automatic and manual control of displays.
Safer working in low light conditions
Ambient lighting surrounding the exterior of the machine enhances visibility, particularly in low-light conditions and during nighttime operations. The result is enhanced safety and accessibility for those working in the machine’s service areas. A new entrance light guides operators up the stairs, for a safer machine entrance/exit.
Light the way
For even more visibility when working in low light conditions, optional work lights activated via the integrated Volvo Co-Pilot are now located on the pillars, providing increased illumination ranging from 1800 to 2000 lumens per light.
Operator Training Program
Unlock the full potential of your Volvo Articulated Hauler with a range of operator training initiatives designed to help operators get the most from their Volvo machine. Contact your local Volvo dealer to find out more about operator training opportunities.
Lower maintenance costs
Keep service costs to a minimum thanks to simplified servicing, longer change intervals and easy component access. Servicing your machine is quick and easy thanks to industry leading service access and essential maintenance points accessible from the ground. What’s more, eliminate daily or weekly greasing thanks to industry leading greasing intervals of 250 hours for maximum uptime.
Efficient fluid management
When measured over the lifetime of the machine, Volvo Articulated Haulers require less fluid volume compared to the competition, benefitting the environment and reducing operating costs. Fluid levels are constantly monitored with timely service alerts displayed on the operator displays, helping you stay on top of your maintenance requirements.
1000-hour engine service intervals
Volvo Engine Oil and High Performance Filters offer 1000 hour engine service intervals. The result is 50% less oil and filters required over the lifetime of the machine – reducing maintenance requirements as well as your environmental impact.
Service contracts
Maximize uptime, reduced unexpected repair costs and keep your machine operating in top condition with a Volvo service contract. With a service contract your Volvo dealer provides scheduled servicing, proactive diagnostics and expert support, to keep your operation running to its full potential. Choose from a range of flexible options designed to suit your requirements. What’s more, with 100% Volvo drivetrain and transmission, your Volvo dealer is the expert when it comes to the service and maintenance of your A60.
Designed for uptime
Take on the most challenging work environments and off-road conditions in the A60 thanks to the robust axles, which withstand heavier loads, higher levels of torque and stress. The added strength and stability provided by the axles contributes to higher uptime, reduced wear, longer service intervals and lower maintenance costs.
Enhanced electrical service center
Conveniently located at the ground level, the electrical service center features a service switch (including Lock Out Tag Out) and provides easy access to check, charge, or jump start the batteries, and it includes a power down switch for system shutdown.
Enhanced fuel filter water separator system
An electric priming pump eliminates manual pumping, along with a larger water bowl, which reduces the need for frequent draining. The pre-filter and main filter are grouped for easy access, reducing service points from two to one, shortening service time.
Harness anchor points
The cab now includes harness anchor points on the cab to ensure safety, withstanding a force of at least 22kN (2,268kg – 5,000lbs). This new safety feature aligns with WorkSafeBC OHS Regulation Part 11, ISO 14567:1999, and OSHA 1919.140(c) standards, optimizing safety and meeting regulatory requirements.
