5 Benefits of a Bobcat

18/11/19

In an industry where lifting materials and excavating areas of land are everyday components of the construction industry, utilising a bobcat can be one of the best pieces of machinery to save valuable time. The bobcat, also known as a skid-steer loader is commonly used in both the agriculture and construction industries and can sometimes replace large excavators in certain areas of work. The bobcat is one of the most versatile machines as there are various attachments that can transform your bobcat into the machine you require.

Because we feel bobcats are one of the most useful machines, we have comprised a list of 5 benefits of a bobca

1. Versatility

Bobcats are one of the most versatile machines and are widely regarded in both the construction and agricultural industries. What the most appealing factor in regard to a bobcat is the versatility of attachments that can be utilised. These attachments allow for multiple jobs to be completed only using the one machine. With attachments ranging from buckets to skid hoes to mulchers to even pallet forks, the bobcat can conquer all projects.

2. Durability

When you first hire a machine, especially a bobcat, you want to make sure that the machine is durable and is able to withstand any project that is put in front of it. One of the many perks with a bobcat includes a protective cage, which allows the operator to feel safe while utilising the machine (if something should happen). The metal frame that creates the silhouette was created with durability in mind, so that any challenging job required for completion, the bobcat can complete.

3. Economy of Space

Another major draw factor of the bobcat is the size and power that can be harnessed while using the bobcat. These benefits allow for the bobcat to be an invaluable addition to any construction or contracting job. While a backhoe may not be able to access hard to reach places, the bobcat completes any task that has limited space with ease. The bobcat also allows for projects to be run on-time, without the hassle of interchanging machines out, which is a serious timewaster.

4. Take on More Jobs

As mentioned previously, by having a bobcat, it allows contractors to complete a multitude of projects with the various attachments available. This, in turn, will allow these machine contractors the ability to accept any and all jobs that come their way as the bobcat (with the correct attachment) will be able to complete the project.

5. Save Money and Time

With a bobcat being such a versatile piece of machinery that can tackle various projects with the correct attachment, companies look to hire bobcats to save money. Hiring a bobcat saves you money and gives you an all in one machine. By spending less on different machines for different aspects of a job, this allows for that money to be utilised in other areas.
