Our video captures this unique machine – a Volvo and Kocurek joint venture – in action.
As readers of This Week in Demolition will be aware, our earlier coverage of the new Volvo ECR305Cl zero tailswing excavator with a high reach front from Kocurek Excavators Ltd met with a lot of discussion and more than its fair share of controversy.
So at the invitation of Volvo Construction Equipment GB’s national account manager Phil Jones – the man who dreamed up the machine in the first place – we hopped aboard the Demomobile and headed for Birmingham to see this unique machine for ourselves.
Hopefully, this will not only lay to rest the discussion about whether it’s a world first or not, but it might also be food for thought for equipment fleet operators looking for a multi-purpose machine with equal high reach and general site duty capabilities.
