Been thinking about getting the new sunward compact track loader when a dealer comes near me. I currently own a Cat among other machines. Seems like it's an ok machine?
@@bennysshop5908 thanks for the reply. No issues at all huh? Can get a full service manual for it (in English)? That would be key for long term servicing and repair. Not just a parts manual..but service. If so...that's sweet! I believe you'd need to know drive chain adjustment specs, hydraulic cylinder repack specs, valve adjustments, hydro pump settings...etc. - I hear sunward is about to come out with a new generation machine this year. Can't wait to see!! Please make more videos of this fine machine
@@technicalitems731 I have an English parts manual, the new generation should have an updated quick attach pins and levers. ( which I may have stated in this or another video) That was an issue that I brought up to a few people at Sunward USA. Even tho it’s a small issue it should be addressed for the longevity and longer service life. Radio and backup camera may be another thing but don’t hold your breath on it. As for anything that goes wrong with the machine your dealer will likely fix it at no cost, 2 or 3 years or 2k hours. All maintaining and maintenance is stated in the manual. Adjustments are stated, all parts are located in a separate manual as well.
@@technicalitems731 I’ve spoken with Jay at sunward on a few things the new generation should have, to better suit the US market. He spoke with me over a bunch of things about quick attach, camera, radio, bigger tire machine, ect, they are great people and definitely listen to the most important people of the company and those are the people actually running the machines! I think you will be very pleased with the current generation if simplicity is your thing. Quick joy stick controls, hydraulic pilot, as opposed to electric joysticks like other brands provide. As well as standard equipment; high flow, enclosed cab, heat and ac!

It’s an okay machine for what it is, I beat on it pretty hard here at the farm. Hasn’t skipped a beat. 200 hours of hard hard use.
