Case introduces vertical-lift skid steer

The skid steer is designed to have a stronger lift arm, H-link and upper chassis.


Case Construction Equipment introduces the new SV340 skid steer. Rated at 3,400 pounds operating capacity and featuring a bucket breakout force of 9,531 pounds, the new vertical-lift skid steer is designed to provide extra power and performance, along with a stronger lift arm, H-link and upper chassis.

The machine also offers optional high-flow (38.7 gallons per minute at 3,450 pounds per square inch) and enhanced high-flow (35 gallons per minute at 4,000 pounds per square inch) auxiliary hydraulics for power and attachment versatility. Additional enhancements have also been made to manifold valves, the gear pump and the auxiliary loader circuit to allow for added power and performance.

The added operating performance—along with new heavy-duty 14 x 17.5 tires and additional counterweights—gives the SV340 the opportunity for more advanced attachments such as cold planers, tree spades and stump grinders. The skid steer is compatible with more than 250 attachments, including the new Case sectional snow pushes, buckets, forks, brooms, rakes and more.

A 90-horsepower FPT engine with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology powers the new skid steer. SCR eliminates the need for a diesel particulate filter (DPF). It also allows the engine to run cooler and with greater fuel efficiency as fuel is not used to burn off collected particulate. 

The SV340 features EZ-EH (electro-hydraulic) controls that provide nine adjustable speed and control sensitivity settings that can be adjusted. A single rocker switch allows operators to switch between the Case “H” operating pattern and ISO pattern controls for jobsites where numerous operators with different operating preferences are working. The skid steer also features push-button Ride Control, which cushions loader arm movement.

The SV340’s routine service points are all located at the rear of the machine. Operators can access the engine, filters, fill points and all other service points through a single point of access. The skid steer also offers the easy-tilt cab for convenient access to the drivetrain compartment.
