Easy to operate, easy to transport and easy to service, whether you rent it or own it, this 1.8t excavator is designed to promote low operating costs.
Take performance to a new level, with a 13% increase in traction force and 2 400kg of combined digging forces. The 11% longer undercarriage contributes to even better all-round lifting capacity and stability, compared to the previous generation. Add in the smooth combination of movements which make grading jobs easier, as well as the ability to work close to the blade, and completing tasks on site has never been quicker.
With a variable undercarriage that retracts to less than 1m and expands up to 1.35m, combined with a reduced machine height to less than 2.35m, you can count on the compact excavator to deliver superior performance when working in confined spaces. The machine design ensures that the right frame corner, swing post and cylinder stay within the tracks, resulting in maximum visibility and a reduced risk of machine damage when working alongside obstacles.
Thanks to its optimized weight balance, redesigned undercarriage with longer tracks, automatic two speed travel and large hydraulic pedals, the EC18E will smoothly load on to a trailer. Carry multiple buckets with ease with the Volvo bucket transportation system.
