Wacker Neuson Skid Steer Loader – the SW16 to SW28 compact loaders from the Munich maker, 42 to 55 kW, Kohler KDI-series engines
Wacker Neuson was formed in 2007 from the merger of the Munich building-equipment maker Wacker Construction Equipment with the Austrian construction-machinery builder Neuson Kramer, and ranks today among the leading European suppliers of compact construction equipment. The SW range denotes the skid steer loaders of the programme; the number after SW orders the size from the SW16 to the larger SW28.

The register lists here 6 versions with 41.8 to 55.2 kW and a rated speed of about 2,750 rpm. The engines are from Kohler, including the KDI series with the KDI 1903 TCR and KDI 2504 TCR models.
Skid steer loaders, steered by braking the wheels or rubber tracks on each side, are the manoeuvrable all-purpose machine on tight sites, in landscaping and in agriculture for earthworks, material handling and running attachments through a hydraulic quick coupler; their compact dimensions also suit indoor work and demolition. Wacker Neuson competes in this segment with Bobcat, Caterpillar and Case.
On a used skid steer loader, the condition of the wheels or tracks and the drive motors on each side, the hydraulic cylinders of the lift arm and quick coupler, the Kohler engine with its service history, and the cab seals and glazing all count. Spare parts run through Wacker Neuson's European dealer network.
