A compact, versatile machine that combines skid-steer maneuverability with a wheel loader configuration, powered by a diesel EPA-compliant engine. It is used for excavation, material handling, landscaping, and other tasks in tight spaces.
Common attachments include general-purpose buckets, multi-purpose buckets, pallet forks, hydraulic breakers, augers, trenchers, grapples, brush cutters, and backhoe attachments. Compatibility depends on the quick-coupler system and hydraulic flow of the specific model.
Yes — the product description indicates an EPA engine. For the exact EPA tier (e.g., Tier 4 Final), verify the specific model's certification with the manufacturer or seller.
It uses diesel fuel. Fuel consumption varies by engine size, workload, and attachment, but small skid steers often consume roughly 1–4 gallons (4–15 L) per hour under typical operating conditions. Ask the seller for model-specific fuel burn rates.
Match the attachment to the loader's rated operating capacity and hydraulic flow. Consider the material density, desired cycle time, and jobsite access. Consult the attachments guide or dealer to ensure safe loading and machine stability.
Typical features include ROPS/FOPS cab protection, seat belt, backup alarms, and interlocks. Recommended practices: perform pre-shift inspections, use seat belt, operate at safe speeds, avoid overloading, keep bystanders clear, and follow manufacturer safety manuals and training.
Follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule. Typical tasks: daily fluid and visual checks, grease fittings, engine oil and filter changes every 100–250 hours (model dependent), hydraulic fluid and filter changes, air filter replacement, and tire checks. Keep records and use genuine parts where possible.
Yes. The product description mentions backhoe and front-end loader capability. Ensure the attachment is rated for the machine's hydraulic flow and lifting capacity and that mounting hardware matches the quick-coupler system.
Rated operating capacity and lift height vary by model. Smaller mini skid steers typically have a rated capacity from a few hundred to several thousand pounds. Request the specific model spec sheet from the manufacturer or dealer for exact numbers.
Wheeled skid steers offer faster travel speeds, lower ground disturbance on hard surfaces, and lower maintenance on some sites. Tracked machines provide better traction and flotation on soft or muddy ground. Choose based on jobsite conditions.
Use a properly rated trailer or flatbed truck and secure the loader with chains or straps to the designated tie-down points. Check local regulations for transport requirements and consider low loaders for larger models.
Skid steer wheel loaders commonly come with industrial tread or turf tires. Options often include heavy-duty, puncture-resistant, or foam-filled tires for specific ground conditions. Confirm available tire options with the dealer.
Training is strongly recommended and often required by employers or local regulations. Proper training improves safety and productivity and covers controls, attachments, load handling, and daily inspections.
Warranty terms vary by manufacturer and model. Typical coverage includes a limited warranty on the machine and engine for a set number of hours or months. Ask the seller for full warranty details, service plans, and authorized service centers.
Purchase parts through the manufacturer, authorized dealers, or approved parts distributors. Provide the machine serial number and model to ensure correct parts. Aftermarket attachments are available but verify compatibility and safety ratings before use.
