A Compact Loader is a small, versatile piece of construction equipment designed for various tasks, including digging, lifting, and moving materials. It typically features a front-mounted bucket and can be equipped with different attachments, such as forks or grapples, to enhance its functionality. Compact loaders are commonly used in landscaping, agriculture, and construction projects due to their maneuverability and efficiency in tight spaces. These machines are powered by either diesel or electric engines, providing options for different work environments. Their compact size allows them to operate in areas where larger equipment cannot, making them ideal for urban construction sites or residential projects. Popular brands include Bobcat, CASE, and Caterpillar.
