Looking for a hydraulic specialist – Armenia / Russia / Turkey / Georgia region

RogerArm ยท 2013-07-29 03:11

Hello all. Still having hydraulic problems with a Volvo EC340. Anyone have any ideas on who I could contact in the Caucasus region (even Russia, Iran, Ukraine are not too far away). Who could travel and help us out. You would think in a country with so many mines you could find such a specialist, but no!

    Hi Robin, Thanks for your speedy reply it is much appreciated. I know AAB and have spoken to them before, they do not have anyone who can help us, they do not carry spares of any type and have no specialist knowledge either.

    maybe if you asked AAB for a list of companies who bought Volvo excavators from them, you may get a contact that way?,,good luck

    Thanks Robin, Unfortunately we know pretty much everyone in Armenia who professes to have any knowledge of excavators and hydraulics. We have never found anyone yet who has such expertise. Normally we have to ship a guy in from Turkey, but with Ramadan here he will not travel. Really looking for somebody outside of Armenia. But thanks for your advice.
