Seeding
When equipped with a seeder attachment, a Bobcat skid-steer loader can seed an area exceeding 8,000 square meters per hour, covering a width of up to 1.82 meters. This process promotes superior grass growth and achieves a more precise seeding coverage rate compared to manual seeding. The roller located at the front of the attachment embeds seeds into the seedbed at a depth of 1.27 cm while simultaneously compacting small stones beneath the soil surface. The rear roller ensures optimal contact between the seeds and the soil.
Rotary Tilling
The Bobcat Tiller breaks up the surface layer of the soil and thoroughly mixes fertilizer into the ground, saving both time and effort. Featuring bi-directional rotation, its unique edge design allows for effective operation along sidewalks, roadsides, and building perimeters. The Bobcat Tiller achieves a maximum tilling depth of 15.24 cm. For detailed specifications regarding the three available tiller models, please click on the image to view.

Mowing
For mowing operations, Bobcat compact equipment offers a choice between a brushcat rotary cutter and a mower.
The brushcat rotary cutter is the ideal tool for clearing vegetation in locations such as lakeside properties, construction sites, areas surrounding utility poles, and mountain trails. This attachment features a flotation function that allows it to better contour to the terrain, thereby ensuring superior clearing performance. It is capable of cutting down or mulching dense weeds, brush, and small trees with trunk diameters of up to 7.6 cm.
The Bobcat brushcat employs a unique cutting mechanism that causes debris to fall vertically rather than being thrown outward beyond the machine's edges; this uniform distribution of material simplifies subsequent cleanup tasks. Furthermore, the unit supports bidirectional operation and utilizes a flotation system to maintain optimal ground contact—a precise interface with the terrain that ensures the attachment delivers peak performance.
When performing mowing operations with Bobcat compact equipment, you have the option to utilize a mower attachment. These mower attachments are ideally suited for maintaining roadside greenbelts, golf courses, and expansive pastures. Two distinct models are available for purchase; please click on the images to view detailed specifications.
The Bobcat mower serves as the ideal tool for tackling even the most challenging mowing tasks, offering the flexibility to discharge clippings to the rear or side, or to mulch them directly. Its three interlocking blades ensure a clean, precise cut, while an integrated safety feature immediately halts blade rotation the moment the mower lifts off the ground, ensuring enhanced operational safety.

Wood Chipping
When equipped with a wood chipper attachment, Bobcat compact equipment facilitates the management of branches following tree felling—streamlining both transport and disposal processes. The resulting wood chips can subsequently be utilized as fertilizer.
This wood chipper attachment is ideally suited for operation in narrow yards or confined spaces, where it serves to grind up shrubs and branches, effectively reducing their volume to just one-tenth of their original size. Branches to be processed can be fed into the unit from either the front or the right side; furthermore, the cutting blades are reversible, and the discharge chute features a full 360-degree rotation capability.
Hole Digging
When equipped with an auger attachment, a Bobcat skid-steer loader can perform hole-digging operations, making it an ideal tool for installing utility poles and planting trees.
The unique linkage design of the Bobcat auger ensures that the bit remains vertical even on uneven terrain, while the high-torque, heavy-duty hydraulic drive guarantees rapid operation. The entire auger housing is designed to enter the hole along with the bit, thereby increasing the total drilling depth by 30 cm compared to standard augers.
Laser Grading
Bobcat compact equipment, when equipped with a grader attachment, can perform precision grading operations. The Bobcat grader features a 2.13-meter-wide, six-way hydraulically controlled moldboard and a hydraulically controlled blade, allowing for precise manipulation via two buttons conveniently located on the loader's joysticks.
For even more precise control during grading tasks, an optional laser control kit is available. This system achieves grading accuracy of ±0.64 mm, making it ideally suited for the high-precision leveling required for sports fields; once the drainage slope has been configured, the entire process can be automated. The height of the blade on both sides can also be adjusted manually.
Trenching
Bobcat compact equipment, when equipped with a continuous trencher attachment, is suitable for a wide range of operating conditions. Trenching depth is adjustable, and manual or hydraulic side-shift mechanisms allow the trencher to operate flush against walls. All trencher models are equipped with a spoil removal system.
Soil Conditioning
When mounted on Bobcat compact equipment, the Soil Conditioner attachment can be used to separate rocks and debris, while simultaneously breaking up compacted soil and leveling the surface to create a perfect seedbed for planting or sod installation. As it breaks down soil clods, the unit keeps rocks and other debris rolling forward, ensuring they are not left behind. The rear-mounted end plates function partially as a grader, allowing you to smooth driveways, remove excess material, level soil piles, or prepare an ideal bed for planting and sodding. Easy to use, this attachment saves both time and effort.
Grappling
The Bobcat Landscaping Grapple makes it easier to clear rocks, tree roots, and overgrown vegetation. Its design allows soil to sift through the tines, thereby minimizing the removal of topsoil. Five different models are available to choose from. Work quickly on construction sites or landscaping projects—whether grappling roots, brush, and rocks, or clearing various debris following a natural disaster. The curved bottom tines allow the attachment to scoop up material without having to dig into the ground.
