Tks, so almost a front end loader on wheels rather than track.

Or Dam It can always go really old school with one of these ........

Hmmm, that would be a front end loader.
I would consider a 4 in 1. Lot more versatile.

Must of hit a hot patch

Is that a loader with a digger on the back?

Straight from the Caterpillar sites.

Yes, Back hoe, bucket at at front that also opens and closes.
Front end loaders arnt much chop for digging.
Not designed for it.
Light scrape at best.

Well over 10 tonnes but.
But you can easily take the bucket off the back and fit a ripper ( big hook) , even a jack hammer!

Need an operator ?

Have a look at Grays on line usually heaps of that kind of stuff on there .PP

Still might pick up a good deal but most of the low hour machines (I prefer low hours and log book service records when buying anything) have been snapped up with the instant write off. I was looking for a posidrive skid steer, in March there were plenty to choose from by the end of June there wasn't much which resulted in premium prices for what was available.
