Volvo EW170 overview

Engine

Large capacity radiator

The large capacity radiator system provides excellent engine cooling efficiency. Radiator fins are designed to reduce plugging by insects or dust and are easily accessible if cleaning is required.


Undercarriage

Service brake system

Wet, multiple disc brakes, ensure good braking on muddy terrain. They are sealed to keep out dirt and other abrasive contaminants. Two completely independent brake systems are provided for the front and rear axle.


Undercarriage

The hydraulic dual brake system, with the negative actuation of the parking brake, improves safety. The steering system is fully hydraulic and the steering wheel has tilt and telescopic functions, which provide the operator with greater comfort. The front axle hydraulic locking system allows the axle to oscillate when travelling and provides stability by locking in position when working.


Booms and sticks

Volvo quick fit

The Volvo hydraulic quick fit makes it possible to change buckets or attachments quickly and easily without the operator even leaving the cab. This saves valuable time, increases productivity and makes the machine more versatile. To release the bucket or attachments, two switches are activated simultaneously. This also activates an alarm to warn the operator that the attachment is loose. A lifting hook is also mounted on the quick fit to allow the removal of the bucket or attachment when lifting heavy objects.
