Carlton SP5014 or the Sp4012

[Scooter101]

Looking at the Carlton SP5014 or the SP4012 but the web sight has very little information on it, are they keeping the web sight up to date? Does anyone have the 5014 with the 44hp Kubota, 4x4 with wireless remote and if so do you like it? I need the good the bad and the ugly.

The Carlton website is not usually very up to date. They often have new models out, or new options available, that are not even mentioned on the website.

Carlton must hate counting money or something. They have the best grinders out there but it's impossible to find information about them. I have searched high and low for an accurate weight on my machine and still haven't found one. Once I get my trailer I am taking it all to a scale and weighing it myself.

I talked to a dealer about the 5014 and if memory serves me correct it has a wider swing. I want to say 50'' vs the 4012's 40''? Again not 100% sure on that. From the pictures of them they the motor looks a little lower which maybe improved the stability. If you don't have the hydro's dialed in on my machine, with how hight the motor is, I feel like I could make 4012 do a barrel roll if I whipped the controls hard enough.

As I recall, a sales rep at Carlton told me that the wider swing, (and maybe increased grinding depth), are the only changes.

I believe Carlton's naming convention gives the clue 5014 = 50" swing and 14" depth.

Stumper63 is correct. Carlton uses nomenclature for model numbers. SP7015TRX (Self Propelled 70 inch swing and 15 inches deep).

Does anyone have any idea what the SP5014 cost fully loaded, (44hp Kubota, 4x4, blade, and remote control)?

 

[Mowingman]

Alexander Equipment Company, in Illinois, is advertising that machine for $41,850. The price from the factory is going to be just about the same.

 

[Scooter101]

Just looked at the web sight, $41,850 is for the demo unit. Man, are they getting expensive.

 

[Scooter101]

Can anyone tell me the closest Carlton dealer to Columbus, Ms.

 

[Eq Broker]

Carlton is your closest dealer in Spartanburg, SC.

As stated earlier, the only difference in 50" swing arc and 14" digging depth. The SP4012 is being phased out.

Could you tell me what the 5014 4x4, remote control, with push blade, Kubota turbo 44hp is going for?
