ARTICULATED HAULER WITH FULL SUSPENSION
The completely new Volvo A35E/A40E FS articulated hauler with full suspension system delivers even greater productivity, improved operator comfort (especially when operating empty), better off-road performance, higher cornering speeds, better braking performance and less road maintenance versus current suspension methods. The Volvo D12 and D16 V-ACT new generation of engines meet all existing emission requirements according to Stage IIIA/Tier 3. Volvo's in-house engineered and manufactured engines provide for higher power at low rpm for maximum fuel efficiency. The planetary transmission features smooth shifting providing maximum rimpull with Powertronic at all speeds.
No daily service is required and downtime during service is short, thanks to a small number of service points. Electronic monitoring of fluid levels also minimizes service needs and enhances reliability.
Dumping is fast and safe. A fully loaded body is raised in only 12 seconds, and lowered in only 9 seconds.
The new articulated hauler features: independent front and rear hydraulic suspensions, automatic levelling, anti-roll function due to cross connecting, Low/High pressure accumulators for unloaded/loaded body, no greasing with 2,000-hour inspection, and constant filtration of hydraulic oil.
The ergonomically designed operator's seat features air-suspension, easily adjustable for true comfort. There is plenty of room for the operator as well as personal items. Visibility around the machine is improved even more with the large rearview mirrors, large windshield and windows.
