Intuitive fingertip controls
The boom offset and auxiliary hydraulics are operated by ergonomic fingertip controls rather than pedals. A single-acting button on the joystick makes it easy to send the maximum flow available to the accessories, ensuring precise control.
Ultimate lifting capacity
Excellent stability and outstanding hydraulics ensure that D-Series machines can lift heavy loads.
Harmonized hydraulics
The EC20D features class-leading tearing forces and excellent breakout forces. Thanks to the optimized digging equipment, this powerful compact excavator allows you to stretch further, dig deeper and reach higher. The state-of-the-art hydraulic system delivers superior performance regardless of application. Through the Flow Sharing system, the operator gets precise control of simultaneous functions for more efficient operations.

Auto-idle and auto engine shutdown
Engine rpm is reduced to idling when the controls are inactive for five seconds, reducing fuel consumption and noise. If the machine is left idle longer, the engine can be shut down automatically which then stops the hour meter, resulting in longer maintenance intervals, lower operating costs ensuring a better resale value of your machine.
50 hour greasing interval
Grease points are easily accessed, with a 50 hour greasing interval. Longer greasing intervals increase uptime, lower maintenance costs and provide durability for all
Fast daily checks
The daily service points are logically grouped under the wide-opening lockable engine hood to ensure easy maintenance and maximized uptime. Quick checks encourage these essential works to be carried out - increasing machine life.
Auto–idle and auto engine shutdown
Reduce fuel consumption and maintenance requirements with auto idle and engine shutdown.
50 hour greasing interval
The greasing interval is 50 hours lowering operating costs and increasing uptime.

A strong, dedicated, capable dealer network.
Our dealers are strategically located throughout North America to provide the equipment you need, and parts and service will assist you in demand for a productive and profitable operation.
Safe transportation
Simply adjust the auxiliary hydraulic flows from inside into the cab and benefit from the optimal speed and power for attachment operation. Flows can be adjusted independently in any direction. Whether lifting your machine to a demolition site or transporting it on a trailer, you can safely get where you need to with special lift points and an automatic swing brake for easy transportation.

Patented hydraulic oil filter
The flat, tempered glass used on the four sides of the cab guarantees easy, fast and cost-effective replacement in case of damage. Volvo's patented multifunction hydraulic oil filter ensures filtration when filling or replenishing the tank and before the oil enters back into the tank via drain lines. The transparent bowl allows simple oil level checks and permits early detection of contamination. Preventive maintenance can be performed before damage occurs.

Automatic travel speed
For maximum versatility, the undercarriage can be extended or retracted according to your needs. A reduced width can be selected when passing through tight spaces. The undercarriage can be expanded for greater stability and improved performance. For optimized travel speed and traction, automatic two-speed travel allows the operator to continue driving the machine at high speed. When more traction is required, speed will automatically decrease.
Variable–width undercarriage
For maximum versatility, the undercarriage can be extended for maximum stability or retracted during transport.

Superior operator environment
The spacious, safe cab or canopy feature superior noise and vibration insulation for increased operator comfort all day long. A 12V electric socket, optional MP3 radio, adjustable ergonomically designed seat as well as an efficient heating system provide a comfortable working environment. Flat floor allows easy cleaning of the cabin.
Assisted front window opening
Easily and safely enter the cab via a wide door with three points of contact. When equipped with a canopy, the machines feature a large, convenient handrail. The front window is fitted with a gas strut, together with large handles for easy opening providing a comfortable, safe working environment.

Quality components
Cast swing frame, boom and armrests allow excellent stress distribution and lasting performance. Hardened pins and bushings are designed to keep the pivot points fixed and safe for minimum wear; making your machine operational year after year.
Strong by design
All hoses are routed through the boom providing full protection. A strong steel housing protects the boom cylinder on the EC20D, protecting it when digging and using a breaker.
Reinforced blade
To maintain visibility when working in tight conditions, the natural position is used to compensate for the boom to the left. The machine is designed to be swings and cylinders located within the tracks in that position; avoiding the risk of damage to your machine while working alongside obstacles. The robust dozer blade is equipped with a reinforced 400HB cutting edge for superior wear resistance. A strong, curved upper lip provides added protection against damage in tough use. This sturdy structure ensures outstanding performance – whether dozing, backfilling or using the blade as a stabiliser.
High profile rear counterweight
A heavy duty rear counterweight provides excellent wear resistance and shields all major components. The unique high profiled design consists of a single, strong cast iron piece wrapped around each side of the machine ensuring superb protection.
Quality components
All components are designed for outstanding durability and reliability to maximize your machine life and reduce maintenance costs.
High profile rear counterweight
A robust, high-profile cast iron back counterweight provides excellent resistance to outstanding durability.
In–track boom swing
The swing post and cylinder stay within the tracks when in a offset position, thus avoiding the risk of damage to your machine while working alongside obstacles.
