The 3.8 Tonne Excavator!
This is the machine you have been missing. Right now, there is no better model out on the market than the Bobcat E35 3.8 Tonne Excavator. The Bobcat E35 Mini Excavator is undeniably the best in its class. These excavators have a digging depth of 3.4-metres and a dump height of 3.5-metres, and not to mention, a 5.5-metre reach. And with a whopping 30,995Nm breakout force, you can’t go wrong hiring this beauty. Though this machine contains a smaller frame than its full-size counterparts, it is by no means deficient in power and durability. The E35 is the perfect size for a wide variety of jobs; it’s small enough to navigate through smaller, more restricted sites, yet still powerful enough to handle big jobs. To really optimise the efficiency of your team and project, pair this machine with the 10.4-tonne tipper truck. Not only does this truck fit the excavator snugly within its tray, it also takes care of the transportation of waste and materials.
Bobcat has been long known from its vast range of construction machinery that is suitable for small and large sites. Bobcat delivers consistency in the quality of their machinery, and the E35 is no different. This machine is sturdy and sleek, and it easily navigates tight spaces and corners. Bobcat’s excavator series provides minimal Tail Swing, which enables the operator to utilise every function of the machine, including heavy rotations, with flexibility and minimal risk of damage to the equipment and surroundings. Depending on the digging requirements of your site, a long arm can be used. The fingertip controlled boom offset is compact and easy to use, meaning more space for you inside the machine and more control of the boom swing.
Need attachments?
The 3.8 tonne is the ideal size excavator for most common sites. On top of its basic excavation functionalities, this machine can be used for additional purposes with the use of a number of attachments. The E35 can be fitted with augers, hammers or a rock or concrete sleeper grab to fulfil a variety of tasks specifically for it to help get that job finished.
Hydraulic Rock Breakers
Hydraulic rock breakers are designed to break extremely tough surfaces, such as rocks, concrete, and intact earth. This attachment is ideal for the demolition phase of any project. To ensure the optimal use of the breaker, it is best to work from the edge in on a sturdy surface. Also, to maintain the integrity of this attachment, it is advised to utilise the breaker in 5-10 second bursts as any longer and it can cause damage to the attachment or premature wear.
Hydraulic Auger Drivers
The hydraulic auger driver is a drill component which can be attached to the end of the excavator. This attachment is used to dig holes for fences, poles, posts, planting trees and general building foundations. The greatest advantage of a hydraulic auger, rather than a common handheld auger, is the power and efficiency. Hydraulic auger drivers can dig into any soil type with ease. Sometimes unexpected rocks mean you getting thrown off your handheld auger – this isn’t the case with these attachment options.
Concrete Sleeper Grabs
This attachment assists with the lifting and transfer of heavy construction material, minimising potential injury to workers. This component functions as a mechanical grabbing tool which can hold concrete slabs, sleepers, and other construction tools with impressive stability and control. The handle is simple to use with an easy lock-in, lock-off function. The locking mechanism also means less chance of materials being accidentally released, keeping everyone on the site safe.
Hydraulic Rock Grab
This attachment is often hired out with this excavator so it might be worth having a look at what this tool can do for you! The Hydraulic Rock Grabs have grooves on their claws which enable them to easily grab onto materials, rocks, logs and other debris that might be around your construction site. In conjunction with our excavator, it is perfect for doing all the heavy lifting and moving.
Hydraulic Tilting Mud
The tilting mud bucket is perfect for sites that contain uneven and varied surfaces. The hydraulic tilting mud bucket can rotate 45 degrees on either side, enabling you to trim, scrape and scoop material along various surfaces. Helping with your excavating needs, mud buckets hold, carry and move large quantities of earth and material, helping your project move along much faster. This feature is also excellent for levelling surfaces which have been laid down. This attachment is extremely durable and sturdy, and is perfect for jobs big or small.
