Choosing skid steer loaders for the job

Radial-lift machines often suit digging and mid-height work; vertical-lift designs can favour truck loading and lift-and-carry tasks. Confirm standard- or high-flow hydraulics before selecting powered attachments.

Specifications that matter

Specification	Why it matters
Rated operating capacity	Must be read with the applicable configuration, stability limits and duty.
Tipping load	Must be read with the applicable configuration, stability limits and duty.
Lift path	Compare the serial-specific configuration and intended work, not the label alone.
Hinge-pin height	Shows whether the configured machine fits the required work envelope.
Auxiliary flow	Determines powered-attachment capability and circuit requirements.
Operating weight	Defines machine class, transport exposure and stability context.
Tire configuration	Affects traction, flotation, wear cost, width and transport.
