“Because the brand is new to Turkey and it was the first SDLG machine we’d seen, we were understandably slightly uncertain when we first started using the machine,” said Uğur Özyurt, managing director at Özyurt Maden. “But after operating the LG958L we could see the performance level was good and we were pleased with the fuel efficiency.”

The LG958L was sold by local equipment dealer, Ascendum Makina, which represents SDLG and has 18 branches across Turkey.

“It was important for us during our purchasing decision to work with a trustworthy local dealer,”continued Özyurt. “Especially when working with a new brand for the first time. Ascendum Makinahas a proven track record in delivering a high standard of sales and aftersales support.We will definitely consider SDLG products for future machine purchases.”
