EW220E
Built on a proven design, the EW220E wheeled excavator from Volvo Construction Equipment combines comfort, strength and precise movement for ultimate performance.
Boasting all the known features of its little brother, the EW180E, and more, customers can take on demanding applications with ease thanks to a new heavy-duty two-piece boom, offering a high lifting capacity. Moreover, this powerful machine can also reach materials over 10 metres away.
The EW220E can carry out a variety of tasks, thanks to a range of flexible configurations and attachments. The machine is available from the factory in two styles, either road homologated or off-road – which has a heavier counterweight. Customers can also choose from a selection of high quality tires, available in both single and twin varieties, according to ground conditions. The proven travel motor provides the tractive force needed to climb gradients or travel over uneven ground, while the optional Boom Suspension System (BSS) automatically engages at 5km/h (3.11 mph), to absorb shocks and reduce bucket spillage.
The E-Series wheeled excavator can be customized with a range of Volvo attachments, purpose-built to deliver improved cycle times and fuel efficiency. The new ditching buckets make the perfect partner for landscaping, slope shaping or ditch
maintenance, while the factory fitted Steelwrist® tiltrotator offers ultimate control. To get the most out of the machine, optional auxiliary lines provide optimum flow and pressure when operating attachments requiring a one or two-way flow.
Not only can the operator change attachments easily and quickly on the jobsite, they can also transport them easily from site to site. The optional trailer hitch can pull trailers weighing up to three tons – or eight tons with overrun brakes – and can be fitted onto the outriggers or parallel blade. Operators can also bring all their tools along with them in a special drawer- type tool box, which slides out from the undercarriage. First introduced by Volvo, the tool box can carry up to 130 kg. Box dividers, which can be adjusted into five different positions, help the operator stay organised, while a mechanical stopper prevents the drawer from sliding out during transport or operation.
Comfort and control
Commanding all-around visibility and an ergonomically positioned interface, it’s no wonder the ROPS certified Volvo cab is an industry leader. Specially designed, the cab has generous leg room and ample storage, because a comfortable operator is a productive operator.
For added convenience, Comfort Drive Control (CDC) gives the operator the opportunity to steer the machine using only the
