Wheels or tracks?
A mini skid steer can carry a bucket, auger, breaker, broom or stump grinder, but one machine will not suit every job. Before ordering, look at where it will work and what you expect it to power. That simple step avoids many expensive surprises later. Choose wheels for concrete, asphalt, compacted gravel and other firm surfaces. Wheeled loaders are usually quicker to move, simpler underneath and less costly to maintain. Choose tracks for mud, loose soil, sand or uneven ground. Tracks spread the machine weight and normally give better traction, but the undercarriage costs more and wears faster when constantly turning on concrete.
- Wheel or track chassis and the intended ground condition
- Exact engine model, emission label and destination documents
- Auxiliary hydraulic flow, pressure, return, case drain and couplers
- Attachment mounting standard and written compatibility list
- Pump types, hydraulic circuit description and control system
Check emissions and road rules separately
