Dive summary:
- Volvo's construction equipment division has added a new designation for some of its crawler excavators: "HR" for "high reach."
- The units accepts long arms, including one model that can reach almost 90 feet for higher demolition work, the company says. It also can be switched out for a standard backhoe rig in a half-hour, Volvo says.
- Another addition is a cab that can hydraulically tilt up 30 degrees from the horizontal to give the operator a better view of what that long arm is doing.
