The Yanmar B110W is a smaller sized wheeled excavator.
It has an operating weight in the 11 tonne range.
Packaging
The model comes in a
Yanmar branded box.
Inside the model is wrapped in soft paper and rests in a polystyrene tray.
There were no missing parts or defects on the review
model.
It is fully assembled.
There is no information about the model or the real
machine.
Detail
The underside of the
carrier has the transmission detailed in plastic, and
the the axles are nicely detailed also. There are
twin metal stabilisers at one end
The cab has metal grab rails, and a thin windscreen wiper
which is painted into the windscreen.
The windows have detailed frames and seals giving it a
detailed and realistic appearance. The interior is
detailed also.
The curved body
has the Yanmar name at the back, and painted
lights and small graphics add to the appearance.
Grilles on the side are formed by painted indentations.
Rear and side mirrors are modelled in plastic.
Up on top there is a small exhaust pipe. At the boom
foot there are soft hydraulic
hoses which cross to the boom.
The hydraulics on the boom and stick are
complex with
many soft hoses. The connection pins are very
discrete.
The bucket is a good casting with nice teeth.
Features
The
wheels roll well without being fully free spinning. The
steering axle performs well and it also oscillates.
The stabilisers can be lowered. However, because
of the oscillating axle the body tends to tilt over when
reaching to the side.
The model rotates well.
The movement of the
two-part boom and stick is very good with a pleasant
stiffness in the cylinders. It does not reach up
fully, but digging at depth is very good. The boom also
rotates on its pivot point to give offset digging, with
movement being more on the right than on the left.
The bucket is removable and can also be reversed.
Quality
This is a high quality model with a very good finish.
The metal content is high and the paint and graphics are
excellent.
Price
The model is decent value.
Overall
This Yanmar model is very attractive in the red and
black colour scheme. It is well made and poses
well with other models.
