Power on demand
WiththeG900MotorGraders,Volvo
puts the keys to new levels of profitable
grader performance in your hands. What
you’ll notice first, is the power. Dig into
the job and Volvo digs in with you. Volvo
engines are renowned for high torque at
lowRPMs,producingresponsive,fuel-
efficient performance under all operating
conditions. When you call for power and
smooth responsive moldboard control,
yourVolvoG900MotorGradercomes
through without hesitation.
Then there’s the touch
Highly responsive industry-standard
controls give skilled operators the sure
feel they need to do what they do
best. Wide stance blade lift cylinders
coupled with the low angle side shift
cylinder provide the most stable grading
platform in the industry. Heavy-duty
inching clutches and a powerful twin-
gear direct-drive circle turn system
translate responsive control into precise
earthmoving results. You get more one-
pass finishes with cost-saving accuracy.

STRONGER. TOUGHER.
FINER. SMARTER.
From heavy cutting to fine finishing, G900
Motor Graders work with grader operators
to perform every task efficiently, profitably.
Gearing up for the bottom line
Volvo HTE transmissions, including
standard8-speedandoptional11-speed
models, translate engine output into
intelligent power for faster, simpler duty
cycles.WithselectableManual,optional

wantit.WiththeVolvoAutoshiftmode,
you just select your gear and go. Your
Volvo HTE transmission does the rest to
get you up to speed in your working or
travel gear ranges quickly, economically
and smoothly. Volvo shuttle shift, a
standardfeatureonallVolvoGrader
transmissions, allows operators to make
effortless, forward-to-reverse shifts (and
viceversa)withoutstoppingorusing
the inching pedal. In jobs that require
frequent direction changes, shuttle
shifting means faster cycle times, less
fatigue and more work done at day’s end.
Turning the Corner
TheG900Seriesintroducedanew
concept to motor grader thinking: a
longer wheelbase that can turn in tighter
circles!ThelongG900wheelbase
ensures greater stability and fine grade
control and also improves the sight line
to the leading tandem wheels, helping
operators run closer to grade markers.
