Bulldozers are easily identified by the huge blade at the front of the equipment that is controlled with the use of hydraulic pistons.
4. Skid Steer Loaders
Skid steer loaders can be used for the widest range of purposes of all heavy earth moving machinery. It’s also equipment which is very easy to use and being on wheels, with a tight turning range, is the best choice for smaller sites. Skid steel loaders help lower soil compaction, work well in difficult conditions such as snow/mud, and have a limited impact on finished zones because of their tread system.
5. Motor Graders
Most often employed to fine grade and shift small amounts of dirt and prepare the base before laying asphalt, motor graders are identified by their longer adjustable blade used to make surfaces smoother. They also feature an additional blade so they can be used for mining underneath the ground.
