To meet the needs of rental centers and small landscape contractors, Vermeer has introduced the all new s400TX mini skid steer. The s400TX is powered by a 23-hp (17kW) Kohler Command air-cooled petrol engine that offers 15 percent more horsepower than competitive models.
The s400TX has easy-to-operate controls - similar to those found on the larger s600TX that are ergonomically positioned for increased performance and ease of learning. The operators platform is enclosed within the machine framework and features console cushions for enhanced operator comfort and protection while turning and maneuvering over uneven terrain. An industry-exclusive operator presence system in the platform locks out the machine functions should the operator step off the platform.
The s400TX track undercarriage features a high mount sprocket track-drive with a standard 7-inch (17.8cm) rubber track or 9-inch (22.8cm) track option that produces only 3.8 psi (0.2 bar), substantially less than the 8 psi of the human foot.
With 6 inches (15cm) of ground clearance, the s400TX traverses terrain better than competitive models. At only 76.5 inches (194cm) long, 34.5 inches (87.6cm) wide and 885kg, the unit is easy to maneuver in tight spaces and weight sensitive areas.
Despite its small stature, the s400TX features a hydraulic flow rate of 11.5 gpm (43.5L/m) and delivers a rated operating capacity of 500 pounds (227kg) and a maximum lifting height of 69 inches (175cm). The curved loader arms on the s400TX offer improved reach as the boom lifts out and up, providing more clearance to load and unload material.
A 28.4L fuel tank minimizes the need for multiple fuel stops throughout the day. Plus, the operator can easily access the engine compartments for routine maintenance and service.
A standard quick attach plate offers numerous attachment opportunities. For more information on how the s400TX can help your business generate more profit, please feel free to contact your nearest Vermeer dealer or send a confidential email to sales@vermeer.com.au
