Yanmar SV100 Excavator

Presented here is the 1:32nd scale Yanmar SV100-2 compact excavator produced by Ros Srl which was unveiled at the Bauma trade show in 2016. The SV100-2 tips the scales just under 10 ton and is powered by a 4-cylinder diesel engine delivering 70hp.

The compact dimensions make it ideal in confined jobsites and this has been fully captured on the model, with the body design authentically replicated to include an opening engine cover that reveals glimpses of the internal components.

The cab has an opening door and a comprehensively finished single colour interior highlighting the various controls. The two-piece boom fitted to the model is a rather interesting choice, and with a pivoting king post allowing offset digging, the working envelope has been captured well.

The fixed and flexible hydraulic lines certainly add to the realism, as do the auxiliary lines and silver check valves on the stick which is fitted with a toothed bucket. The paint finish is even and not too thick while the printing of the Yanmar markings are authentically placed.
