Volvo's largest wheeled excavator, Rinnen's brand new EW 220E

This is the Volvo EW 220E, the largest wheeled excavator from the Swedish manufacturer. Rinnen's machine is fully equipped with a two-piece boom Steelwrist X26 tiltrotator, Volvo's own 3d machine control system 'Dig Assist' and all the mod cons. Here it is grading a retention pond and loading trucks at a site in the north of Luxembourg. Also in this video are Terra BMB's MAN TGS dump truck and a Caterpillar 906 (I think?) small wheel loader.

The operator, Edgar Scheid, passed away shortly after this was recorded, and I was unsure about what to do with the footage for a long time. His family have cleared its release. I hope it does him justice.

My gratitude goes out to the great people at Rinnen Constructions Générales.
