Could an attachment do the job?
One option that could interest landscapers is an attachment rather than a full excavator. Bobcat offers a backhoe
which can be used for excavation and is attached to its skid steer loader, a compact piece of construction kit,
used primarily for digging.
The manufacturer says this offers value and versatility and could be a handy workmate for landscapers.
It is available in four configurations [the two Versatile (V) B32V and B35V models and the two Standard (S)
B32S and B35S models], which offer a choice of digging depths, reach and hook-up systems. The largest model
in the range offers a maximum digging depth of 3.3 metres and a maximum reach of four metres.
Landscapers are able to transform loaders into excavators that can dig holes, trenches and foundations and
add other attachments – there are over 30 of these to choose from
The new backhoe attachment is also about 100 kg lighter than the previous generation product, providing
additional stability for increased safety and offers a clear line of sight from the operator’s seat, for accurate digging.
