The SV412 model has manual traction and the SV540 has automatic traction control. “This means they can climb steep slopes in forward or reverse,” said Steele.

Visitors to the Sakai stand could also see the firm’s new trench roller, the SA33L-2, a rigid frame model with remote control, and the firm’s 1.3M asphalt compactor the SW502, which Sakai brought into the US recently.
