Year: 2000 Make: Volvo Model: EW170C Hours: 11,252 VIN: EW170C 03026 Engine: Cummins 120HP Max Reach: 6 Meters Fuel: Diesel Color: Yellow This 2000 Volvo EW170 wheeled excavator is designed for versatile heavy-duty jobsite performance. Outfitted in signature Volvo yellow, this machine features a rear counterweight marked “OVERSIZE” and outriggers for stability. The body shows typical cosmetic wear for its age and class, including surface rust around exposed panels and joints, but the overall structure appears in good condition. The cab is equipped with joystick controls, seat-mounted armrest functions, and a large forward windshield for excellent operator visibility. Instrumentation includes a working hour meter showing 11,252 hours. The unit displays an error code “ER 4” on its electronic panel, and prospective buyers are encouraged to inspect further to determine the nature of this code. The engine bay is accessible from the rear side panel, revealing hoses, filters, and hydraulic components that appear aged but largely intact. This excavator rolls on rubber tires rather than tracks, offering excellent mobility on paved surfaces and roadways. It is powered by a Volvo diesel engine with no VIN or serial tag visible in the current inspection photos. The boom and stick components are equipped with a general-purpose bucket, and hydraulic lines appear connected and operational. This unit was driven to our facility without issue; AWWU disclosed reportedly having weak hydraulics.
