Specs in Plain Language

This unit has 6,700 hours on both the engine and frame. Over 14 years, that comes out to about 480 hours per year, which is normal for a machine used regularly but not pushed to extreme daily production.

The Volvo ECR235DL is a crawler excavator, which means it runs on tracks for stability and traction on uneven or soft ground. This makes it well-suited for job sites, demolition work, and material handling.

This machine comes with both a breaker and a bucket. That gives flexibility to switch between digging and breaking without needing additional equipment.

Because engine details are not listed, buyers should confirm specifications and overall condition. As with any excavator, components like hydraulics, pins, bushings, and undercarriage condition are important to evaluate.

If you’re comparing options, you can also view other equipment like excavators or pair this with jaw crushers for a full job site setup.
