LESS WORK
MORE PRODUCTION
The Volvo approach to servicing lets you spend
more time working on the job, less time working
on the machine.
Ease of service,
low maintenance demands
G900 Motor Graders carry on the Volvo
approach to maximum uptime: minimize
the machine’s need for service, then
simplify the service tasks it does require.
Start every day easy. Sensible Volvo
service design starts with fueling and all
engine service points accessible from
ground-level, with minimal grease points
and no daily greasing required. Sight
glasses and level sensors make daily
checks virtually effortless.
Open for business
With an Easy Lift rear hood, gull-wing
side panels and removable hydraulic tank
cover, G900 Motor Graders are unrivaled
for easy routine service. The complete
rear cowling opens wide to allow quick,
thorough service checks, then back to
work quickly.
Keep it simple, smart
With their modular powertrain design
concept, G900 Motor Graders simplify
maintenance on major components and
allow new levels of flexibility for optimal
service scheduling.
The hydraulic system is designed for fast
manual or pressure fills through the top
of the tank. All added fluids must pass
through a large, full flow return filter to
prevent accidental contamination in the
reservoir that could lead to down time.
Hoses are routed over the surface of the
frame for simple inspections.
The Volvo cooling module eliminates
stacked cores. Instead, multiple cooling
cores are positioned to receive fresh,
cool ambient air continuously.
A thermostatically controlled, hydraulically
driven fan maximizes available power
and fuel savings. An auto-reversing
cooling fan option allows continuous
self-cleaning to further improve cooling
performance and reduce service needs.
Everything you want to know
The G900 electronic monitoring
system provides a familiar window to
the standard Volvo Contronics system,
providing a complete record of grader
functions to help operators, owners and
service technicians achieve optimum
machine performance.
V-ACT
The new generation of D9 engines
with Volvo Advanced Combustion
Technology (V-ACT) is tailored for
grader applications, designed to run
cleanly and efficiently without the
extra service requirements
of additional equipment or
after-treatment of exhaust gases.
