S450 Key Features

What Makes the S450 Different

For operators who need a compact machine with real capability, the Classic S450 skid-steer loader delivers the features that matter most on daily jobs.

Two-Speed Travel

Spend less time traveling across the jobsite or between jobs with this option. Move faster and get the job done sooner.

Radius Lift Path

Standard or Selectable Joystick Control

Selectable joystick control (SJC) is standard, with optional classic hand and foot controls available to match your preferences and work needs.

Power Bob-Tach

This option easily and quickly changes non-hydraulic attachments in seconds right from your seat with the push of a button. No dismounting. No wasted motion.
