Bedford-based ECL Civil Engineering is the proud owner of two new Bobcat T86 compact track loaders with matching GPS controlled grading attachments, having acquired the machines from Versatile Equipment Ltd, Bobcat’s dealer throughout the Southeast.
Talking about the new arrivals plant manager Steve Wright said: “At ECL, we see the Bobcat T86 compact track loader as a very effective compact dozer due to its optimised weight-to-horsepower ratio that makes it one of the most powerful and productive machines in its class. The T86 with super flow hydraulic capabilities allows for even more versatility and productivity as a tool carrier, working with a wider range of attachments across all applications in construction, landscaping, forestry and many other areas. As an illustration of this flexibility, we had one of the T86s supplied with forestry kit fitted by Versatile and we have that one running with the Bobcat FRC150 hi-flow forestry mulcher attachment.”
Phil Stoneham, area sales manager at Versatile added: “The in-line engine on the T86 increases reliability in high-intensity applications such as forestry work and to take advantage of this, one of the T86 loaders is equipped with a Bobcat forestry application kit, which is required when using the machine with a forestry mulcher. As part of the order, ECL has also purchased Bobcat 4-in-1 bucket, pallet fork and high tip bucket attachments.”
