4600 BVOLVO BM 460% —A HIGH CAPAC FOR THE REALL For the fast, effective, high volume handling of heavy mate- rials, the Volvo BM 4600 B is the economic answer. You have at your command, a precisely engineered power- pack composed of carefully matched, smoothly interacting components. The Volvo Turbo diesel engine, transmission and the loader unit's hydraulics, all work in total harmony to give you the penetration and breakout force demanded when the going gets really tough. The Volvo BM_4600 B is a 21 tonner with bucket volumes of 3.8-13 m? (5-17 yd’) and an engine developing 185 kW (252 hp) DIN. The operator's environment is really superb. From the comfortable cab, you have light, positive, ingertip control over all loader unit move- ments and steering, plus good allround visibility. This allows you to work with effortless precision in all applIB ITY LOADER Y BIG JOBSPOWER & ENGINEERING The drive train is made up of Volvo BM com- ponents manufactured toa very high techni- al specification. The highest standards of design engineering plus stringent production and quality control, are your guarantee of total satisfaction. In order to achieve good overall economy and maximum machine utilisation, a good deal of effort has been devoted to reduci ‘component co-ordin yn and the exten every detail. 1g parts stocking requirements through n i ion of service intervals. All this gives you an efficient, economical machine, reliable in LOADER UNIT The Volvo BM 4600 B has a rugged loader unit Ideal for hard production work. The liftarms and linkage geometry have been designed to provide in abundance, the three qualities essential for a good production’ loader: superior breakout forces Ybroughout the ful it rads, excellent iting height and good reach. These qualities enable the 4600 B to dump into tall bins and load high sided vehicles with ease. At the end of the rollback movement, the bucket accelerates onto a mechanical stop, moving the heap of a wel filled bucket to the rear. This refinement reduces spillage and increases machine stability. Right attachment Using the correct attachment for the material or load to be handled, boosts capacity and profitabil- ity, The 4600 B has therefore been equipped with a wide range of quality, purpose-designed attach- ments well matched to the machine and th tasks. If the machine is to be used on a variety of applications requiring frequent attachment changes, the 4600 B can be fitted with a hydraulic attachment bracket, enabling you to re-equip your machine for an entirely different job in under a minute.CAB ‘A machine can be no more efficient than the petson who rating it. Therefore the ‘operator and environment. warrants special attention. A 4600 B operator works in a very safe ROPS and FOPS tested cab. It Is exceptionally comfortable, well insulated and equipped with an efficient heating and ventilation system to keep him fresh throughout a long working shift. Ergonomics engineers, following theoretical studies, have drawn up_ general guidelines for the design and location of controls nd instruments. Practical tests have then been Carried out to fine-tune the perfect operator envi- ronment. Optional: Automatic Power Shift Volvo BM is always in the forefront of technologi cal progress. The Volvo BM loader is available with AUTOMATIC POWER SHIFT as an optional extra, A specially programmed computer selects the appropriate gear for every situation. The operator works more effectively increasing the machine’s capacity and improving fuel economy. The 4600 B has the power fr hard work, combined with nimble manoeuvrabllty and ample iting eight and reach. These ar ideal characterities for ‘unloading large volumes of material. Volvo Bhs ioader unit offers good breakout forces in allpositions—even at the top. This i via feo ture for working in timber and pulpwood terminal, ‘or example. ‘The 4600 B also has a high capacity for carrying ‘overfong dstances. The machine's ong wheelbase ‘and good weight dstrbutlon provide a stable ride with high average speeds.© Flywheel rating Gross rating Max. torque No. of eylinders Bore Stroke Displacement ‘Compression ratio Ac cleaning in. three stages Batteries Voltage Battery capacity Alternator Starter motor Central warning lamp fllosing functions: Speeds: (tyres 265-25) ENGINE Volvo TD 101 G 6-cylinder, in- line, direct-injected, turbo- charged 4-stroke diesel engine ‘with Wet replaceable cylinder linings. 185 kW at 36:7 rps DIN 70020 (252 hp at 2.200 rpm DIN) 194 KW at 36.7 rps SAE J 270 (264 hp at2200 rpm SAE) 962 Nn at 23.3 eps DIN 70020 710 Ib feat | 400 ¢pm DIN) (0m at 23.3 rps SAE 270 (723 Ibf feat 1400 rpm SAE) 6 120.65 mm (4.75 in) 140 mm (5.5 in) 9.6 litres (586 in?) 15:1 1.
