How to choose and what to look for?

When choosing a skid steers loader, you need to pay attention to several important factors:

• The hydraulic system must match the choice of additional attachments.
• Type of surface on which the equipment will work.
• Operator's workplace. The cabin is more protected from external factors such as wind and rain, the canopy allows the unit to be more stable; the pressurized operator's cabin should provide good all-round visibility.
• Price. The manufacturer and technical features of the loader affect the pricing policy. Sometimes it's better to look at used skid steer for sale.
• Way of movement - there are wheeled and tracked mini-loaders. Wheeled vehicles have higher maneuverability, and tracked vehicles have higher cross-country ability. The main disadvantage of tracked models is the need to deliver equipment to the facility using vehicles, while wheeled models can move around the city.
• Lifting mechanism - skid steer can be equipped with a front, semi-rotary or flip boom. The most maneuverable and compact is considered a half-turn or side mechanism. In these models, the drive wheels are equipped with separate hydraulic motors, which allows you to turn the equipment almost in one place. Front and flip cars work on the principle of a conventional all-wheel drive car.
• Type of fuel - special equipment can be equipped with a drive from gasoline, diesel or batteries.
• Load capacity - models with a load capacity from 0.5 to 10 tons are on the market. We advise you to choose equipment with a margin of 0.5-1 tons to avoid overloads.
• Complete set of attachments - the necessary attachments can either come with a skid steer or be an additional option. Before buying, you should always check the availability of the necessary mechanisms for the selected model.
• Boom lifting scheme - there are radial and horizontal. Radial in their design provide for movement in an arc and have a longer reach. Vertical lift skid steer loaders are characterized by better lifting capacity and good reach at maximum bucket height.
