How is the SY500H FULLY LOADED?
SANY built the SY500H ready to handle whatever job you need. And that means your machine is ready from the get-go, no add-ons or ‘optional purchases’ necessary. Whereas other brands charge extra for pre-plumbed auxiliary hydraulics or a self-loading counterweight system, every SY500H comes standard with these features and more so you can get the job done from the get-go.
Standard Counterweight Removal System
THE SY500H Excavator has a 21,385 lb counterweight. For a machine of this size, it could take multiple technicians hours to remove and replace a counterweight for transportation.
From job to job, the amount of downtime in between prepping for transport and re-loading at the jobsite would mean money out the door. However, the SANY SY500H comes standard with a self-loading counterweight system.
This hydraulically removable counterweight can be easily removed and re-attached through an easily accessible control system in the side panel. Through utilizing the removable counterweight system, owners and operators can reduce travel restriction and lower transportation expenses.
