Position in the range 3–4 t

Machines in one range are compared against each other — these are the four figures the choice usually comes down to.

Compactness and performance

A conventional tail swing in a machine just 1,550 mm wide: for demanding work where performance has to be combined with compactness.

Why a Bobcat compact excavator

The design decisions that determine where the machine can work and what you can hang on it.

Zero House Swing (ZHS)

An extension of zero tail swing: the front corners of the upper structure are brought inside the swing circle too, and the boom swing cylinder does not protrude when digging parallel to a wall. In practice the machine works right up against obstacles — in backyards, in urban areas and anywhere a bigger machine simply will not fit.

Floating blade and second travel range

The blade follows the ground automatically, making levelling quicker and easier. The travel motor returns to high speed by itself after downshifting under load, so turns and dozing stay smooth without manual shifting.

Bobcat Protection Plus — warranty duration and hours table BobCARE PM

Invested in a Bobcat? Protect that investment.

  1. Protection Plus — extended warranty. Up to 5 years or 6,000 hours of full coverage, just like day one of the standard warranty. No surprise repair bills.
  2. BobCARE PM — planned maintenance. Your dealer services the machine on the factory schedule — no planning on your side, just a call or the PM-hours reminder on the display.
  3. Resale value. A documented service history plus an active extended warranty raise the machine's residual value and make it easier to sell or hand over to a new owner.
Exact terms and hour options — ask your Bobcat dealer. →
