Operators will be also impressed by the excellent all-around visibility. It is a real pleasure to operate a Sunward skid-steer.

SERVICE MADE EASY
Because we care about your operative costs, maintenance and service have been made easy. Daily preventive maintenance is very simple since service checkpoints and cooling system components are accessible at ground level from the rear door. When it comes to service, major components are also easily and quickly accessible by tilting the ROPS/FOPS cab.

SAFETY IS NOT AN OPTION
Safety is and will always be a priority for Sunward. The SWTL 5238 has been designed for operator safety.
Thus, the ROPS/FOPS cab and rear window exit coupled with the excellent visibility and great stability of the machine guarantee maximum safety.
A seat switch and armbar switch also prevent the machine from being started without an operator present.
In terms of systems, the SWTL 5238 skid steer has been equipped with an emergency descent function, so that the boom can safely conduct the emergency descent n the event of an unexpected engine shut down.
