Using the skid steer loader for land clearing is only the beginning of its usefulness.

This is especially useful in areas where building and structural work reduces the amount of headroom available. The mini skid steer excels in smaller spaces like these. Another of the skid steer’s attributes which make it ideal for work in crowded or challenging environments, is its maneuverability and four wheel drive configuration. The unit is able to turn on its axis. In fact this is how the operator steers the unit, by locking the wheels on one side or the other the operator can turn the skid steer in the desired direction. In especially challenging situations, where the ground is treacherous the four wheels of the skid steer unit can be exchanged for tracks, further enhancing the usefulness of the skid steer loader.
The light weight of the skid steer loader is also a factor in enhancing its usefulness. In environments where loose earth, snow or waterlogged ground is a factor the skid steer units light weight allows it to operate relatively safely. Where larger units would become bogged down the skid steer operates without a problem.
