Model EC18E

Year 2024

This Volvo Excavator is available to view at our depot in Rugby.

Light work of tough jobs

A small machine packed with big features, the EC18E is designed to promote low operating costs. Built for durability and easy to service, this compact excavator will make light work of tough jobs.

Small but tough

The unique high-profile counterweight design is made from three strong pieces of cast iron which wrap around the rear of the machine, protecting all vital components. All-around steel panels, recessed 10mm from the counterweight, offer further protection.

Best-in-class serviceability

Complete maintenance tasks with speed thanks to the hinged fuel tank which enables an impressive ease of access to the engine compartment, and easy to locate daily check points. A 50-hour greasing interval further contributes towards the best-in-class serviceability of this machine.

Safety first

Safety is built-in to the machine with a ROPS/TOPS/FOPS cab and canopy, a large entrance including high visibility step, and an orange seatbelt as standard for easy checks by site managers.

The operator’s choice

The roomy and uncluttered cab is designed to keep operators comfortable and productive, while its flat floor makes it easy to keep clean. Superior visibility, simple layout of the controls, fingertip controls and large travel pedals contribute towards the great ease of operation.

Small machine, big performance

Take performance to a new level, with a 13% increase in traction force and 2 130kg of combined digging forces. The 11% longer undercarriage contributes to even better all-around 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.

The ultimate all-arounder

Go where other machines cannot thanks to the compact design of the EC18E. Easy to operate and easy to transport, this 1.8t excavator is the perfect choice when a compact machine is right for your application.

Transport with ease

Transportation of the machine is safe and secure, thanks to its light weight and convenient design. With automatic slew lock and four easily accessed large tie-down points on the upper frame, the machine can be safely transported on a small trailer with up to three buckets and a hydraulic breaker, while maintaining a total transport weight of less than 2t.

Smooth loading

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.

Compact by design

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.

Perfect control

Experience precise, smooth and effortless command of the boom offset and auxiliary hydraulic flows with proportional fingertip controls. The easy-to-use joystick allows you to fine-tune the maximum hydraulic flow of any attachment to ensure ideal speed and power for any task.
