May 30, 2012 03:00 ET

MOSCOW--(Marketwire - May 30, 2012) - Case Construction presents its new range of skid steer and compact track loaders at CTT 2012, the international show of construction equipment and technologies held from May 29^th to June 2^nd at Crocus Expo centre in Moscow, Russia.

Case celebrates 170 years of leadership, design and innovation in 2012; this year's anniversary takes centre stage at the CTT Case stand together with the new skid steer loader line-up.

The three new models, which are making their first appearance at a major show, are the SR150 and SV300 skid steer loaders and the TR270 compact track loader.

On display at CTT is also a selection of models from Case's wide compact and heavy equipment lines; the Construction King T-Series backhoe loaders are represented by the 580T and 695ST and alongside them are a 1650L crawler dozer, a CX210B crawler excavator, and a WX210 wheeled excavator.

Visitors will have the opportunity to see firsthand the outstanding performance and reliability of Case equipment during regular live demonstrations that will be performed on the Case stand.

Representatives from Case and its dealer network will be in attendance on the stand to welcome visitors and discuss their equipment and service needs. They will be able to talk them through Case's line of premium equipment, as well as the support the company offers its Russian customers with superior after sales services, training, parts support and financing solutions.

New Case skid steer loaders: the most powerful outside, the most comfortable inside
To deliver Case performance and productivity to an ever wider range of customers, Case Construction Equipment expands and renews its skid steer loader and compact track loader line-up. The revised range includes a radial lift SR boom skid steer, a vertical lift SV model and a TR radial lift track loader.

All models benefit from a cab with up to 25% more internal width, providing greatly improved operator comfort. An ultra-thin wire side screen and revised boom enhance overall visibility in all job site conditions.

Premium Power For Every Class
Whatever the task, Case has a skid steer or a compact track loader to meet the need. Engine outputs range from 52hp (39kW) to 90hp (67kW) and, with the SR150 advertising an operating weight of 2,400kg and the 3,765kg SV300, Case skid steer loaders offer unmatched power to weight ratio.

The TR270 compact track loader, with a rated power of 74hp (55kW), tips the scales at 3,720kg operating weight.

Both the skid steers and the compact track loaders boast best-in-class bucket breakout forces and rated operating capacities, increasing productivity for the customer and allowing the use of a wide range of powered attachments. Enhanced high flow auxiliary hydraulics are available with proportional controls in the control lever heads.

The new loaders feature the Case Power Stance chassis, which rides on a 21% longer wheelbase for maximum stability and increased lifting forces. Front/rear weight distribution is split 30/70, to allow the machines to dig and carry more material. When equipped with Ride Control, the Case skid steer offers superior stability and load retention, regardless of job site conditions.

Leading Operator Environment
The new Case skid steer cab is 25% larger than on previous models, offering superior space and comfort for the operator. If specified with full cab glazing and a door, the cab is sealed to reduce the amount of noise and dust. With larger windows and a new ultra-narrow wire side-screen protection, the Case cab offers improved visibility all-round. Working longer days even in winter is now easier thanks to the new Case side lighting system, which has operating lights in the front corners of the cab roof that illuminate both the front and the sides of the machine.

Operators can rely on the proven mechanical controls. With the electro-hydraulic joysticks the drivers can set the control pattern to match their preference, between ISO and SAE. Options include heated air-suspended seating, air conditioning and removable doors and side windows.

Built To Work Hard
All Case loaders have remote mounted filters for ease of service and maintenance. With a tilting cab on the skid steers, Case takes access even further, allowing the technician to rapidly reach hydraulic and transmission components for service work. On the compact track loaders, the dozer-style undercarriage has a rigid track frame with fewer moving parts, increasing undercarriage life and thus reducing operating costs.

Both the skid steer and compact track loaders benefit from improved fuel consumption and a larger fuel tank. The result is that all day running is now possible without the need to refuel: an additional boost in productivity, thanks to reduced downtime for the operator.

A New Livery to Reflect Case's Long Tradition of Leadership
The new models present a new livery that Case is introducing on all its new ranges to celebrate its 170th anniversary. The word "CASE" appears now larger, bolder, clean and exciting.

Many years have passed since its foundation in 1842 by Jerome Increase Case, but the enthusiasm of its team has remained unchanged, and the brand has established a great heritage of leadership, innovation and reliability, globally.

On the Russian market, Case is today a leading player in the skid steer loader segment.
