The models are fitted with Soilmec’s new H-cab, which features good all round visibility and high operator comfort. A key feature for the operator is the sophisticated touchscreen DMS package, which monitors working functions and parameters. This system allows full monitoring, recording and analysis of operation, with dedicated software providing full data handling and storage capabilities. Customers can specify the SC machines with either Tier 4 Fina/StageIV compliant diesels or Tier 3/Stage IIIA engines, depending on the location where the units will be used.
