4 Volvo’s EC250E/EC300E Stage IV crawler excavators are powerful and efficient machines designed to reduce fuel consumption and increase your productivity. With advanced technology, the machines deliver a significant improvement in fuel efficiency, saving your business time and cost. Put your mind at ease with a Volvo excavator. Doing more for you Automatic idling system Engine speed is reduced to idle when the controls are inactive for a pre-set amount of time (between 3 and 20 seconds), which reduces fuel consumption and noise for nearby workers. Work modes Volvo’s integrated work mode system now includes the G4 mode for optimum fuel efficiency and machine performance. You can choose the best work mode for the task at hand – select from I (Idle), F (Fine), G (General), H (Heavy) and P (Power max). Eco-gauge Eco-gauge is an added gauge bar that indicates momentary fuel consumption and can be reset through the display monitor. This will track fuel consumption under different applications. Auto-engine shut down E-Series excavators feature automatic engine shutdown for when the machine is not being used. When the machine is motionless for five minutes, the engine will automatically turn off and reduce your running costs.

5 Volvo’s unique ECO mode optimizes the hydraulic system to reduce flow and pressure losses – resulting in improved fuel efficiency without any loss of performance in most operating conditions. ECO mode is automatically selected but can be switched off via the keypad. ECO mode

6 Human Machine Interface (HMI) All machine interfaces – including the joysticks, keypad and LCD monitor – are ergonomically positioned and designed for optimum control and efficiency. For operator convenience and ease of use, the number of switches has been significantly reduced.

7 Keypad + hot key The optimally positioned keypad allows the operator to easily navigate through the LCD monitor and activate machine functions in a safe and comfortable way. The functionality of the camera, air conditioning and lights can be customized via the hot key – enabling the operator to select and save desired configurations. 8 inch LCD The new, eight-inch non-glare colour LCD monitor displays machine status and information for easy operation. Through the use of a new remote keypad, the display enables the operator to easily navigate through various menus. Joystick + shortcut key The windshield wipers, camera, audio mute or power max function can be assigned to a shortcut switch located on the joystick. This allows the operator to easily control the selected function by simply pressing a switch. Bluetooth® Bluetooth and a hands-free function have been added that allows the operator to connect to wireless functions for easier connectivity and more convenience. Boost your productivity It’s a fact that operators work more efficiently when they’re given the best tools for the job. That’s why, on top of being a superior production machine, the EC250E/EC300E has an ergonomic design with ideally placed controls and switches. With built in comfort and optimized control, operators will work efficiently and productively all day long.

8 Non-stop productivity Experienced and skilled Volvo engineers have developed and rigorously tested Stage IV/Tier 4 Final engine systems that deliver the ultimate combination of high productivity and low fuel consumption. Benefit from Volvo’s signature high torque at low rpm and experience superior performance and reduced fuel consumption. Attachment management system The attachment management system – controlled through the monitor – stores the settings for up to 20 different hydraulic attachments for ease of operation. Depending on the options configured, the management system can store rated flow and relieve pressure. Positive Control hydraulics + pump input torque High pump flow combined with the electro-hydraulic control system creates a faster response and cycle time. In addition, the EC300E features increased pump input torque for a reduced cycle time. V-ACT (engine and pumps are matched to optimise performance) It’s the combination of the durable D8 Volvo engine and intelligent hydraulic system that makes all the difference. Boosting power while reducing both fuel consumption and emissions results in quicker cycle times and greater productivity. Boom float With the boom float function the pump power for boom lowering can be saved or used for other functions, reducing your cycle time. Also, the grading operation can be made easier. Engine after treatment system The After Treatment Control Module (ACM) automatically controls, monitors and diagnoses the after treatment system to secure emission regulation compliance.

9 The proportional two-pump flow makes it easier for the operator to improve the machine’s controllability for a higher quality grading finish. The ease of operation helps to get a quality job done quicker Proportional two-pump flow

10 Bolt-on wear plates At the arm end where the most movement and wear occurs, Volvo provides wear plates which are easily replaced in a matter of hours in the field – a service that can’t be matched by its competitors.
