These reimagined loaders rise high, pick up heavy loads, and deliver remarkable boom- and bucket-breakout forces. Plus, a low center of gravity and sure-footed balance provide exceptional agility and stability on slopes. Choose between vertical or radial lift to match your application.
RADIAL LIFT More reach at mid-range lift heights; good for digging, grading, and backfilling.
VERTICAL LIFT More lift height and reach at the top of the lift path, for more stability.
Power lifter: Vertical-lift boom rises to a hinge-pin height of 10 feet on the 314G and 318G.
Boom-diggity: Radial-lift booms on the 312GR and 316GR provide powerful digging performance and generous reach at a competitive price. For even more lifting ability, opt for the 314G and 318G with vertical-lift booms that deliver outstanding lifting and truck-loading ability.
Carry more, spill less: Both radial- and vertical-lift designs keep the load close to the machine, for reliable stability. Low center of gravity, 30-degree bucket rollback, optional hydraulic self-leveling, and optional ride control (316GR and 318G only) also help keep buckets full and forks loaded. Add more capacity with up to two sets of counterweights.
Features and Specifications
When considering a skid steer, it's essential to understand the various features and specifications available. Each component plays a significant role in the performance and capabilities of the machine, and these factors impact the efficiency and versatility of the skid steer. By exploring and comprehending these features and specifications, you can make an informed decision and select a skid steer that meets your requirements.
HANDHELD REMOTE CONTROLS
Some skid steer models come equipped with handheld remote controls, allowing operators to control the machine's functions from a distance, enhancing safety and convenience.
REMOTE ACCESS
Certain skid steer models offer remote access capabilities, enabling users to monitor and manage the machine's performance and diagnostics remotely, improving efficiency and troubleshooting capabilities.
LOAD CAPACITY
Load capacity refers to the maximum weight a skid steer can safely lift and carry. It is an important specification to consider based on the types of materials and loads you plan to handle.
TIPPING POINT AND ROC (RATED OPERATING CAPACITY)
The tipping point is the maximum angle at which a skid steer can safely operate on uneven terrain without tipping over. ROC indicates the maximum weight the skid steer can lift and transport without exceeding stability limits.
LIFT HEIGHT AND REACH
Lift height refers to the maximum vertical distance the skid steer's arms can reach when fully extended. Reach refers to the horizontal distance from the skid steer's center to the furthest point it can extend its load.
HYDRAULIC CAPACITY AND FLOW
Hydraulic capacity refers to the power and capacity of the hydraulic system in the skid steer, influencing the performance of attachments. Hydraulic flow determines the speed and efficiency of hydraulic functions.
STANDARD FLOW, HIGH FLOW, AND ENHANCED HIGH FLOW
These terms refer to the different levels of hydraulic flow options available in skid steer models. Higher flow rates allow for increased performance with attachments that require hydraulic power.
SECONDARY SYSTEM
Some skid steers feature a secondary hydraulic system that enables the simultaneous operation of multiple attachments, enhancing versatility and productivity.
DIMENSIONS
Skid steer dimensions include length, width, and height, determining the machine's maneuverability and suitability for various work environments.
TIRES
The type of tires on a skid steer can affect traction, stability, and performance on different surfaces. Depending on the intended use, options include solid, air-filled, or heavy-duty.
CABS
Skid steer cabs offer operator protection and comfort. Consider features like visibility, ergonomics, noise insulation, climate control, and additional options like air conditioning or heating.
HORSEPOWER
Horsepower indicates the engine's power output, which impacts the machine's overall performance and capability to handle demanding tasks.
ENGINES
Skid steers may incorporate various technological features such as telematics systems, advanced controls, and integrated display screens to enhance operational efficiency, diagnostics, and data management.
ENGINES
The type and specifications of the engine determine the skid steer's power, fuel efficiency, emissions, and durability. Consider factors such as engine size, fuel type, and emissions compliance when selecting a skid steer.
