Choose wheels for the surface

Quick on hard ground. Precise in tight quarters.

Bobcat skid-steer loaders are designed for firm-surface work where speed, maneuverability, a tight turning footprint, and a simpler tire undercarriage are useful priorities.

01

Fast repositioning

Tire-based travel supports quick movement between loading, carrying, cleanup, and attachment tasks on suitable firm surfaces.

02

Tight turning

Skid steering helps the machine pivot and work around buildings, pallets, curbs, material stacks, and confined staging areas.

03

Attachment versatility

Machine size, auxiliary hydraulics, controls, and the exact work tool should be selected together for reliable performance.

Hydraulic attachments

Identify breakers, planers, brooms, augers, grapples, or other powered tools and their approved hydraulic requirements.

Straight answers

Skid-Steer Loaders questions

Product details and fit vary by model and configuration. Graham Equipment can help apply these answers to the exact work.

What surfaces suit a skid-steer loader?

Skid-steer loaders are designed to be agile on firm surfaces such as concrete, asphalt, and packed gravel. Soft, muddy, sandy, or highly sensitive ground may point toward a compact track loader instead.

How is a skid-steer different from a compact track loader?

A skid-steer runs on tires and prioritizes speed and maneuverability on firm ground. A compact track loader spreads weight across tracks for more traction and flotation on soft or uneven terrain.

How do Bobcat Classic and Pro skid-steers differ?

Classic skid-steers emphasize familiar, proven operation. Pro skid-steers add a newer control, comfort, and in-cab technology path. Graham Equipment can help compare the two around the work.

What should I provide for a skid-steer quote?

Share surface conditions, access limits, material, lift height, attachments, hydraulic needs, operator preferences, daily hours, and timing.
