The 988 GC, with its 449 horsepower Cat C15 engine, is designed specifically for loading 50-ton trucks. The loader’s operational efficiency is improved by its dual-range planetary powershift gearbox, which enables maximum speeds of 24 mph forward and 25.4 mph in reverse. The company’s “GC” philosophy provides the performance and dependability of high-end models at a cheaper cost.

This transparent bucket helps remove the blind spots around the loader which ultimately improve the safety and efficiency at the construction site.

The loader is a flexible choice for a variety of job site settings thanks to its range of bucket capacities and cutting-edge control technologies.

Volvo: All-New L180H and L120H Models

Volvo has added new D8M engines with automated regeneration and increased fuel efficiency to its L110H and L120H wheel loaders. High-definition cameras, collision mitigation systems, and Volvo Co-Pilot tablets are all included with these loaders for sale.
