The SWECO Difference
Letter from Vice President, Sales
Dear Reader:
SWECO has over 60 years of experience building the best agricultural and industrial machinery in the industry. From 480 trail dozers to laser scrapers, we focus on building quality products that our customers can depend on. Our products are designed with the customer in mind so that they offer the most precise, durable, and effective performance in the industry – that’s the SWECO difference.
A TRADITION OF INGENUITY: Our products are designed to meet the specific needs of our customers. Whether we are designing and/or constructing a gargantuan wheel tractor for use in the Amazon jungles of Brazil, a salt harvester for Baja Mexico or a Tri Plane for California’s agricultural community, SWECO Products is dedicated to building products that work for our customers.
THE FIRST NAME IN DEPENDABILITY: When you buy a piece of equipment from SWECO, you are buying the most durable equipment on the market. SWECO equipment and its parts are built to complement each other, which makes our parts readily available and service of equipment easier. All of our products are manufactured in Sutter, California in one of our two facilities. SWECO products are true domestic manufactured products from a company that has been family owned and operated since 1946.
SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE: SWECO products are not only built to work, our products are built to be the best. Our products are heavier, more precise, and tried. SWECO prides itself on the quality workmanship dedicated to every piece of equipment that it manufactures. Only the finest equipment and the best parts available are utilized in the manufacture of highly durable, lifetime machinery. We know how to build special application equipment. We have been doing it for over 60 years. Sincerely,

Mini Box Scraper
Rock Rake
Angle Blade Scraper
The SWECO Angle Blade Scraper is an excellent all-purpose tool. It is available in widths of 8’ to 16’ to be used with low to medium horsepower tractors. This is accomplished with a heavy frame construction. All wear blades (plow steel) are designed with slotted holes in the center so that the blades can be adjusted or rotated for new cutting edges.
The SWECO Rock Rake is electric over hydraulic. It is built for tough work and will accurately level, fill, and move . . . smoothly raking loose soil and crushed stone on small and large jobs. The teeth are spaced 1” apart enabling the operator to remove rock, roots and undesired debris.
The SWECO Mini Box Scraper is a smaller version of the popular standard box scraper which is ideal for leveling paths, home sites, and trail sites. The bucket can be hydraulically raised and lowered and this scraper requires a low horsepower tractor to pull it.
