Bobcat’s smallest skid-steer loader

At just six feet tall and three feet wide, the S70 is Bobcat's smallest skid-steer loader. The S70 can work in tight areas and traverse through narrow entrances or reach tight utility spaces.

With a wide range of attachments, this skid steer is designed to meet a variety of complex tasks in construction, snow removal, land clearing, material handling, and other applications where operators require a compact machine with ample power. 

A powerful machine in a compact frame 

Bobcat's S70 skid-steer loader measures just 71.4 inches high, 35.4 inches wide, and 75.5 inches long without an attachment, allowing it to fit through doorways and gates or to work easily under low-clearance ceilings. The operating weight is easy to transport with a small trailer at just 2,892 pounds.

The Tier 4-compliant 23.5-hp engine powers a fully hydrostatic, four-wheel-drive system that delivers a travel speed of 6.1 miles per hour. This model features the same belt-tensioner technology as larger Bobcat loaders, allowing ample stability while driving and lifting.

 

Attachment changes are simple with Bobcat's quick-change system 

The Bob-Tach attachment system on this skid steer loader allows operators to quickly change a wide range of Bobcat attachments, creating a versatile tool carrier for confined job sites. There are 22 attachments currently available for the S70, including buckets, grapples, sweepers, snow blowers, augers, forks, breakers, trenchers, and more.

Although small, the rated operating capacity on the S70 is 760 pounds and has a reach of 7.87 feet. The lift capacity might be lower than some of Bobcat's larger models, but the size, manoeuvrability, and range of attachments create a versatile machine. 

Maintenance features and operator cab options

The S70 skid steer has a transversely mounted engine and a tip-up cab for easy access for services. The centre-mounted, maintenance-free chain-case allows the S70 to travel through deep mud and other areas easily with its keel-shaped belly pan. The axle housings are fixed and welded to the chaincase, eliminating maintenance related to tightening bolts or chain adjustments.

Additional features for operating comfort

Optional features on this compact machine include an enclosed cab, a heater, hydraulic bucket positioning, a suspension seat, a top window, and a sound option.

Bobcat's full lineup of skid steers consists of models with a rated operating capacity of 760 pounds up to an ROC of 3,950 pounds.

Bobcat's smallest operating weight

The T450 is Bobcat's smallest compact track loader. Length without an attachment is 98.4 inches; width is 55 inches, and height is 77.8 inches. It has an ROC of 1,400 pounds, an operating weight of 6,424 pounds, an auxiliary standard flow of 16.7 gal/min, and joystick control. This compact track loader is powered by a 61.1-hp engine and offers minimal ground disturbance.

Compact and versatile, the T450 is a master at manoeuvring through tight workspaces. This tiny machine offers a step up from a mini track loader with additional lift, hydraulic performance, and a more spacious cab for operator comfort. As well, the lightweight and compact frame ensures this machine can be transported easily between job sites; a small trailer is all that's needed to get started on the next job.
