Yanmar SV26 vs Kubota KX027-4 vs Bobcat E27

No air con option either.

I know there is a slight weight that's added but just don't see why it's not added/included.
If I was looking to buy new again air con would be on the list rather than sitting in an absolute sweat box with no way to circulate air.
Oddly enough I think the 2t sany has air con (not sure if standard) but it's not even an option on the 26u or even the latest 26c

Air con standard on the 26C

Air con standard on the 26C

Standard on everything above the 18C I believe.

I don't really get the whole air con thing in a mini . I hate the windows shut so aside from the demisting the windscreen when it's raining I wouldn't want to have Aircon on- just more stuff to pay for and go wrong. Bigger machines fair enough but most jobs with a mini you in and out alot anyway so have the door open

yeah cant think ive ever wanted aircon in something that little

Happy to be corrected but I'm pretty sure that either of the 2.6t versions only have a heater

Door open, screen up and both sides opened as far as they can and the 8026 is still a sweatbox when it's hot, no cold blower and nowhere to put a fan or at least fit my M18 one in

Oh yes I'm not denying it doesn't get a bit hot but on the other hand you'd only run Aircon if you had everything pretty much closed which isn't how how most of us would want to be in a mini some sort of fan would be better- mounted in the roof!

Machine in the brochure has a tilt hitch fitted

maybe it does but that won't rotate the bucket out of square with the dipper

Yes it will

 

[Storrsy]

Surely its just the bucket crowded and tilted as far as I can see

If bucket is curled in the hitch is at a different angle so the tilt is in effect left and right and not up and down if that makes sense

Funnily enough had a call today from a sany dealer, thought I seen someone in a post had said the micro was 12k? But was quoted 14.5k, can also confirm that none of the 2.6t have air con as standard or as an option
