Case 250 000th Skid Steer

Case Construction Equipment today celebrated production of its 250 000th skid steer loader. Case has been among the world’s leading skid steer manufacturers since launching its skid steer line in 1969.

A special ceremony was held at the company’s global skid steer manufacturing facility in Wichita, Kansas, where Case presented the 250 000th skid steer to its new owner, Dino Folino of A. Folino Construction, a paving contractor from Oakmont, Pennsylvania. The milestone unit – a Case 430 Series 3 model – is Folino’s fourth Case skid steer in a fleet of equipment that includes a total of nine Case machines.
Case began producing skid steers in 1969 with the 1530 Uni-Loader model, and has been innovating ever since with Case-exclusive features like Ride Control and side lighting.

The Case 400 Series 3 skid steer loader line includes eight models, ranging from 57 to 83 net hp (42 to 62 kW) and 1,500 to 3,000 lb (680 to 1361 kg) rated operating loads. Case skid steers offer superior power, operator comfort and serviceability.
