After you've decided to buy a compact track loader, there are still a few other key shopping decisions to make. Ask yourself the following questions to help further articulate what you do and don't need from your compact track loader purchase.
Begin by considering your work site. Think about the smallest space that your equipment needs to fit into, the tightest turn it will need to make, and so on. This will instantly eliminate models that are too wide or have too big of a turning radius to suit your needs.
A typical construction project will need equipment to operate at around 70 horsepower. Whether you need more or less horsepower depends on your specific type of work.
It's important here to take a long-term approach. Maybe your business currently doesn't need a high powered compact track loader. But your business may be growing and will soon need that extra power potential!
Investing in operator comfort features can be a great way to optimize operator focus, which leads to improved efficiency and improved worksite safety. Different compact track loaders will come with different perks, so it's helpful to spend some time researching the available options. For example, a pressured cab helps reduce outside noise as well as helps keep dust out. The longer your work day, the more important operator comfort features become!
