SDLG has supplied its first grader in Oman
Shandong Lingong Construction Machinery (5316 SDLG) has sold its 100th grader in the EMEA region, as well as the first of its kind to be sold in the Sultanate of Oman, a G9220.

The G9220 was delivered to Sunshine International, a construction company based in Oman. The machine was supplied by General Engineering Services, Genserv, SDLG’s local dealer, and is now being used to carry out road maintenance and repairs in Oman.

With an operating weight of 16.5tonnes, the G9220 is powered by a 164kW Dalian Deutz engine, driving through a ZF power shift transmission. The engine also provides three distinct power curve settings to give the smoothest grade on any terrain while simultaneously reducing fuel consumption. And, offering greater versatility, the unit’s Machine Blade Control System (MBCS) allows for ultimate grading precision. This system is controlled by hydraulic mechanical levers in the cab, meaning the operator can swing the blade himself if required.

Sunshine International is one of the leading construction companies for the commercial and industrial sectors in the Middle East and is the sister company of Al Yam Enterprises.
