Features and advantages

Compact size — access more profitable jobs. A slender 1089 mm design allows easy navigation in tight spaces. Because you can get into backyards and through gates that larger machines cannot, you can take on more jobs and increase your profitability.
Joystick controls — effortless all-day operation. Ergonomic ISO joystick controls provide finely tuned precision. Because they are so comfortable and intuitive to use, you can operate all day with less fatigue and greater accuracy.
Minimal ground disturbance — protect your work, protect your profits. The wheeled design is perfect for work on finished surfaces. Because it minimises damage to lawns, pavers and concrete, you avoid costly repair work and keep your clients happy.
Replace manual labour — multiply your earning power. DIG-BOY loaders replace manual labour and wheelbarrows. They deliver fast cycle times, strong breakout force and excellent pushing ability, allowing one person to do the work of three.
Safety features — protect your most valuable asset. Neutral-start interlocks prevent accidental starting. An attachment shutdown system engages when the operator leaves the seat. We build our machines to protect you, your crew and your investment.

Your all-in-one business solution

Our mini skid steers come equipped with a quick-change system, so one machine covers many jobs:

Skid steer grapple — lift and move loose materials such as manure, bedding and hay.
Snow plow — remove light or moderate snow from sidewalks and driveways.
Pallet fork — move bulky, bagged or palletised material quickly and easily.
Hydraulic hammer — break up concrete and hard surfaces.
Angle broom — clear away dirt, dried mud, light snow and other debris.

Frequently asked questions

Why choose a sit-on loader over a walk-behind?
Speed and less fatigue. A sit-on loader is up to 2x faster and allows you to work all day without getting tired. This means more work done and more profit.

What is the benefit of your one-year warranty?
Peace of mind. It protects your investment from unexpected repair costs, and we stand behind our quality so you can buy with confidence.

What is the purpose of the hydraulic pilot valve lock?
It is a critical safety feature. It locks the controls to prevent accidental movement when you are getting on or off the machine.

Can I add new attachments later on?
Absolutely. Our loaders are designed to be versatile. You can expand your services and profitability by adding new attachments at any time.

How does a wheeled loader save me money compared to a tracked one?
Lower long-term costs. Wheeled loaders have fewer moving parts in the undercarriage, which means less maintenance and lower replacement costs for tyres compared to tracks.
