Bobcat S70 Skid Steer Loader

The Bobcat S70 – a cracker of a compact and agile skid-steer loader that cuts through the clutter in tight spaces with ease. Measuring up at just 1.81 metres tall and 0.9 metres wide, this little beast can slip through doorways, dodgy gates and narrow passageways where bigger machines simply wouldn’t stand a chance. Yet despite its diminutive stature, this little charger has all the grunt and versatility to tackle landscaping, construction jobs, property maintenance and farming tasks with the best of ’em.

Powering the S70 is a 17.5 kW diesel engine that just purrs along smoothly, offering a respectable 345 kg operating capacity and a tipping load of 689 kg – all while making light work of tasks thanks to its hydrostatic drive. With a decent 37 L/min of hydraulic flow on tap, there’s a world of attachments you can hook up to this little workhorse – buckets, sweepers, augers, trenchers and the rest – all made possible with the Bobcat’s quick-mount Bob-Tach system that lets you swap tools with ease.

For the operator, the S70 is a pretty comfortable place to sit, with clear lines of sight, intuitive controls and easy entry/exit access. And because maintenance is a breeze thanks to cleverly placed service access points, you’ll be back up and running in no time. In short, the Bobcat S70 is a real gem of a machine – its compact frame belies a powerhouse of a performer that’s perfect for jobsites where space is at a premium.
