multinational conglomerates make my head hurt.
Not sure of all the details, but it says Volvo on it, has a Volvo power plant and works like a dream.
I have a neighbor who is in the heavy equipment construction business. A couple of his guys used my machine and said it was better than anything else they have used, in that size category. They have Cats and Takeuchi machines, in the small sizes.
It is super quiet. The cab, with the radio, makes working with this machine a dream.
Maintenance is easy. They built it so that you can lubricate the entire machine from one side of the boom. Takes 5 minutes to hit all lube points.
Nice visual indicator for hydraulic fluid level, right in front of your face in the back bay.
Access to all parts of the hydraulics and engine is right there. Seems like a well thought out machine.
But again, I am a homeowner, using this as a toy. I only have 200 hours on it.
