Bandit mini skidsteer loaders

[GlobalNewark]

Bandit later this year will be launching a line of mini skidsteer grapple loaders due to industry feedback from customers. Bandit originally looked at these back in 2011 and have now decided to pursue.

 

What would the UK tree industry like to see in these machines apart from a low price tag? perhaps steel tracks, rubber tracks, engine hp? quick release attachments, standing platform, lights, narrow access just to give a few ideas.

 

Please give your feedback so I can forward this on as our market here will differ.

 

Many thanks.

Complete machine....?

Rubber tracks, variable track width, saddle on the platform to rest your arse on, low COG, removable ballast weight under the operator's platform, diesel engines, working lamps....

Hey Dean, did Bandit build the Toro badged things then?

Not as far as I am aware, this was an early prototype that Bandit used to build onto their chipper from an ex Vermeer customer, used the picture as an example. Can't see many here having one on the drawbar although quite nifty.

what WorcsWuss said, plus a tow ball for moving uk sized chippers and trailers about
