A VOLVO EXCLUSIVE
Best access to the engine compartment thanks to hinged fuel tank A VOLVO EXCLUSIVE, auto engine shutdown and auto-idle (options), 50 hour greasing intervals.

Tyres / Tracks

Compact by design
For superior versatility when working in confined spaces, the ECR18E features an ultra-short rear radius. The machine design ensures that frame corner, swing post and cylinders stay in the tracks while digging alongside obstacles. Result is maximum visibility and a reduced risk of machine damage when working in tight conditions.
