Performance
Great performance doesn’t only come from a high horsepower
engine. Bobcat loaders use the machine’s design and balance to
deliver more usable horsepower. We build machines with the right
balance between engine and pump, plus a weight distribution that
delivers powerful breakout forces and faster cycle times. If you need
to work quicker, lift more and outperform the competition, Bobcat
compact skid-steer loaders are the only choice.

Bobcat loaders have your business expansion built right in. An auger,
breaker or one of more than 70 attachments will go a long way to save
you time and labor. Whether it’s breaking concrete, taking down buildings
or drilling tree holes, Bobcat attachments help you take on new jobs
and get more use from your machine. They’re vertically integrated with
your Bobcat loader’s electronics, hydraulics and geometry, and they’re
designed with visibility and ease of entry and exit in mind.
Quick Couplers
Trapped line pressure can make
attachment changes anything but
quick. So Bobcat loaders come with quick
couplers to release trapped pressure. By
pushing the coupler inward, hydraulic
oil is released through a return line back
into the machine. The result is a clean,
quick attachment change every time.
