Heavy equipment is a huge investment, so it’s just good sense to purchase the right equipment to get the job done. Compact Track Loaders in Beaumont come with a high price tag but, in comparison to skid steer loaders, they are much more functional in soft dirt or on sloped environments. This can lead to increased productivity and a longer machinery lifespan, as it will place less strain on the equipment.
To ensure proper operation, decreasing the need for costly repairs and avoiding potentially dangerous situations, all personnel using these complicated machines should be adequately trained in their use. One of the most common avoidable problems with compact track loaders is premature track failure. It is often a result of personnel operating them as they would a skid steer. These machines may be similar, but techniques like counter-rotational spin turns and, particularly, the spinning of the tracks when filling a bucket, increase wear, and tear. Operators should instead use three point turns and avoid making sudden changes in direction.
Travel speeds in a compact track loader are marginally slower, about 2.3 MPH to be exact, than those of a single speed skid steer. This is due in part to a higher operating weight. But, despite these differences in speed and operation, most skid steer attachments are interchangeable with those of a compact track loader. For trenching and front grading, using this machine will often provide better results. This is partly because they react better to surface irregularities, allowing work to be done faster, more efficiently, and with increased consistency.
Their greater lift capacity makes them better suited than a skid steer for heavier attachments, including landscaping equipment like brush cutters, mulching heads, and wheel saws. They are, however, sometimes prone to overheating when used in extreme heat in conjunction with applications with high hydraulic requirements. In these cases, as well as those in which environmental factors such as high amounts of abrasive material, like large rocks, make for less-than-ideal operating conditions, maintenance, and proper operating technique become even more important.
Under the right conditions, these heavy duty pieces of equipment can increase work efficiency, but only if handled by someone properly trained in their use.
