I’m looking to buy one of these machines new but I’m snagged on a couple of things and can’t settle on one. Price-wise they are the same and all things like warranty and backup support are comparable.
I was impressed with the case responsiveness and speed whereas the Sumi was a fair bit slower, especially with the arm in and out. I didn’t question it at the time and should have but later called the salesman and he said the speed can be changed in the screen. I’ve read this can be done with the later model Case D series equivalent but has anyone here seen this done with the C model? The other item was the engine, both run Isuzu, Sumi the GI-4HK1X and the Case AM-4HK1X, with the Sumi being tier 3 and Case tier 4 interim. The difference appears to be the AM models ‘one-piece diesel particle difusor (DPD) that burns cleaner while delivering superior horsepower’ and they also claim ‘Automatic self-regeneration of the DPD ensures no loss of productivity’………not sure I’m convinced. Anyone have any experience with this setup?
cheers
