COMPACT equipment specialist Bobcat introduced its new products  in Kuwait at a spectacular event, with expert demonstrators flown in from Europe showing off the machines to customers.

The event was held at the Kuwait International Fairs Company’s grounds in Mishref.

Bobcat and its dealer Bahrah Trading Company treated the audience to a live show of the capabilities of Bobcat skid-steer and compact tracked loaders, telescopic handlers, mini-excavators and a wide choice of attachments for work in construction, industry, infrastructure and many other areas.

Among the highlights was the first appearance of new-generation compact loaders and rotary telehandlers, all offering higher performance and even greater versatility.

The new Bobcat 600 series skid-steer loaders set new standards for productivity, ease of maintenance and service, says Bobcat. The demonstration was based on the new S630 model, with a rated load capacity of 1,040 kg and 72 HP diesel engine.

The new rotary telehandlers incorporate value-added features such as increased lift height and 360-degree rotation for work with attachments such as the crane and jib, bulk handling buckets and aerial platforms, ensuring excellent flexibility across a variety of job requirements.

The top-of-the-range TR50210 model was centrestage at the launch, demonstrating its multiple capabilities.

The rotary telehandler offers the efficiency of three machines in one, minimising work time by maximising mobility, safety and lift height compared to a standard telehandler, says Bobcat. With an load capacity of 5,000 kg and scaling heights of 21 m and more, the TR50210 combines agility and productivity.
