Volvo Construction Equipment’s EC140E crawler excavator, equipped with a Tier 4 Final engine, features a 5 percent increase in engine power and 10 percent improvement in fuel efficiency from previous models to help customers minimize fuel costs. Additionally, a boom float function allows pump power for boom lowering to be transferred to other functions, while the auto engine shutdown feature helps to reduce fuel consumption by automatically switching off the engine after a preset amount of time. Inside the cab, the number of switches has been reduced by 50 percent from previous models and climate control has been integrated into the keypad. Functions such as windshield wipers, cameras and audio mute can be assigned to a shortcut button on the joystick to reach with ease even during machine operation.
