HYUNDAI CONSTRUCTION EQUIPMENT AMERICAS WHEEL LOADER’S LARGE BUCKET CAPACITY DELIVERS HIGH-VOLUME PRODUCTION

The HL985A is Hyundai Construction Equipment Americas’ largest capacity wheel loader, delivering a standard bucket capacity of 9.1 cubic yards (7.0 cubic metres). It is designed for high-production work like quarrying and aggregates.

Powered by a 430-hp Tier 4 Final Cummins X12 Performance Series engine, the HL985A delivers power and torque alongside fuel efficiency. Hyundai refers to the HL985A as a true twopass wheel loader, as it can fill the company’s HA30 articulated dump truck with just two bucket loads. Standard with the bucket is a three-piece bolt-on cutting edge. An auto-level feature helps prevent bucket spillage.

High-volume applications that need material weight monitored can use Hyundai’s enhanced, proprietary on-board weighing system, which is accurate to +/- 1 percent. It also includes a cumulative weighing function that facilitates the creation of production reports.

Hyundai has equipped the HL985A with a range of advanced standard features. Smart Power Mode reduces fuel consumption by adjusting the engine speed in heavy-duty applications. This can save fuel while also balancing traction and breakout forces for greater productivity. The Eco Gauge function enables operators to monitor fuel consumption in real time, or to review historical data. Displayed values include engine torque, fuel efficiency, average, and total fuel consumed. Operators can also review hourly and daily fuel consumption.

An electro-hydraulic control system improves precision and ease of operation, which aids in higher productivity. The EH control lever makes it easier to use attachments with integrated, third-spool proportional auxiliary control.

Operators will experience several comfort features including a heated air-ride seat, cab heater and air conditioner, rear-view camera, and 7-inch multi-function monitor and control panel. The Hyundai All-Around View Monitoring (AAVM) system includes four cameras providing a 360-degree view and is now enhanced with radar and motion detection to improve safety.

Maintenance access has been improved using consolidated service drains and a DEF tank spout located together on the right side of the machine. The hood opens and closes via remote control. Hyundai’s Hi MATE proprietary remote management system allows 24/7 global tracking and monitoring of engine, hydraulics, electrical systems, and other key components to facilitate preventive maintenance.
