Volvo Construction Equipment is now offering longer booms on its medium sized wheel loaders – L60E, L70E, L90E and L110E – in order to meet the dump height requirements of high-sided trucks.

Longer reach booms have been available for some time on its largest wheel loaders, but higher sided medium sized trucks are now impacting on smaller loaders. Therefore longer booms are now available as an option on wheel loaders from the 11 tonne L60E up to the 50 tonne L330E. Dump heights with long booms fitted are +510 mm for the L60E, +470 mm for the L70E, +420 mm for the L90E, and +520 mm for the L110E.
