Top Models of Bobcat Excavators for Sale
Offering 14 different models to choose from, Bobcat focuses on all the potential needs of its customers. There are four Zero Tail Swing (ZTS) models available on the market, including E35, E45, 418 and 425. Zero Tail Swing means that the rear house does not extend beyond the tracks, which provides greater flexibility to deposit and slew spoil.
The average tail swing excavator has the rear houses which protrude between 10 to 24 inches. As a result it is much more difficult to maneuver in confined spaces, however lifting capacity is greater. Bobcat offers five models with this tail swing, including the 323, 324, 325, 335, and 337.
Finally, there go the machines with the minimum tail swing. In this case, the protrusion of the rear house amounts from 2 to 6 inches only. Although the lifting capacity is reduced, minimum swing allows the excavator to work comfortably in narrow spaces.
