New shipment

Three upgrades on the latest shipment

The latest container brings three changes to the SJW-18 PRO. All of them concern the operator station and the hydraulic circuit — in other words, the parts you feel within the first hours on site.

  1. 01

    New professional joysticks

    Finer, more progressive control: the bucket sets down to the millimetre and movements flow without jolts. Less strain on the wrists, so less fatigue over a full day, and a far quicker learning curve for an occasional operator.

  2. 02

    3-way valve

    Hydraulic flow is directed to an attachment without touching a single hose. Switch from bucket to breaker, auger or sorting grab in seconds: the same machine handles several types of work in one day.

  3. 03

    New ergonomic seat

    Redesigned cushion and backrest to support the back and filter out track vibration. Over full days of earthmoving, that comfort translates directly into genuinely productive working hours.

These upgrades are fitted to machines from the latest shipment. Contact us to confirm the version currently in stock.
