Our Product Manager, Matt McLean, walks us through the various integrated work modes available in our Volvo Crawler Excavators, what they are used for and how they are better than the competition. The four mode options available are Idle Mode, Fine Mode, General Mode and Heavy Mode. Matt explains when and why to use each of these modes and how it separates Volvo apart from the competition by allowing the operators to get full power without running on full throttle to save fuel.

Step by step instructions for detaching and attaching the universal quick coupler for Volvo E-Series excavators.

Our Compact Excavators Product Manager, John Comrie, shows us how to use the dozer blades and float feature that come standard with all Volvo compact excavators. All dozer blades are built tough and used for backfilling and clearing, but with the float functionality, it can also be used for fine grading work to assist the operator to do back dragging and fine finishing. The dozer blade will automatically float above the surface to allow for smooth back grading. The dozer blade with float functionality provides the operator with more versatility and speed as the excavator can clear and grade in one fluid motion.
