Greetings!
I am considering getting a used Bobcat to use on my farm and could use some help.
I am seeing a number for sale that have Logering steel tracks on them and I need to know
if that set up works well on tilted land. Do they grip? I would be using the Bobcat to
clear down timber, pushing it into burn piles with some grading work to clean up the
aftermath (rootwad divots). The land is hilly to say the least.
I am hoping to find a unit with a grapple so I can pick stuff up to move it. I have
some big oaks that are 10 -12" in diameter that I would like to be able to pick up.
How big a unit do I need to handle that weight? Model number??
Lastly, do Bobcats accept 3 point hitch implements? I.e. brush hog, york rake.
Thanks!
