Features & Benefits

What allows the L30 to excel on rough terrains? It starts with high ground clearance, the best in its class, that results from Volvo’s unique portal axles design.

Unique portal axles design

Built for working in tough conditions, the L30 compact wheel loader also benefits from an articulated and oscillating joint which secures tires-to-ground contact – hence maximum traction. In addition, differential locks can be engaged to ensure that 100% power is distributed to every wheel, reducing tire slippage.

What makes the L30 so smooth to operate? The first reason is the enhanced flow sharing among hydraulic functions, enabling to simultaneously lift the boom and operate the hydraulic attachment with no compromise to the movement of operation.

Exclusive electro-hydraulic main control valve

More combined movements are secured via two independent hydraulic pumps which unlock simultaneous steering and lifting with no impact on boom speed. This, together with a compact design easing operation in narrow spaces, results in short work cycles. What is more, the attachment bracket including proportional third/fourth function makes it possible to swiftly connect to a range of hydraulic attachments.

Why does the cab environment stand out? It offers best-in-class visibility, ergonomic controls and unique options, such as the automatic lift and tilt with boundary limits.

Most comfortable cab

The L30 is designed for operator comfort, starting with its easy cab access, ergonomic arrangement of controls and unrivalled view over the jobsite. Functions are easily set from the 5” display, including the automatic lift and tilt with boundary limits, and lift and tilt speed limiter, which are unique options in this size class. These combine to complete the work fast and with less fatigue.

How about performance? The L30 may be small in stature but it has the tractive, breakout and lifting forces that you would more commonly expect to find on larger loaders.

Small package, big power

The L30 is built to lift high loads in tight corners. It features a powerful linkage as well as superior rollback/dump angles to ensure excellent material retention and quick unloading.

What about uptime? With long service intervals, superior serviceability and connectivity – plus the ability to check machine conditions from the comfort of the cab, the L30 reduces maintenance time and costs.

Keep it moving

Machine conditions such as coolant/hydraulic temperature and engine/fan speed can all be monitored from the in-cab display, and a range of telematic-based solutions can help reduce unplanned downtime. The compact loader benefits from long service intervals and, when the time comes, service points are easily accessible from ground level.
