Bobcat debuted its new S750 skid-steer loader and A770 all-wheel steer loader recently at ConExpo.

The S750 joins the Bobcat M-Series loader line, which includes the S630, S650, S770 and S850 skid-steer loaders, and the T630, T650, T750, T770 and T870 compact track loaders. All Bobcat M-Series loaders share features such as improved power and performance, better visibility and outstanding operator comfort. The new S750 is designed to help contractors power their way to top performance in construction, landscaping, nurseries and other applications. Lifting and loading is easier and faster because the machine achieves maximum reach at full lift height.

The S750 delivers 11 feet of vertical lift — 3.5 inches higher than a S300 and features a 23-gallons-per-minute standard hydraulic flow — 11-percent more than the S300 it replaces.

The S750 has an operating weight of 8,730 pounds, a rated operating capacity of 3,200 pounds and is powered by an 85-hp turbo-diesel engine.

The new A770 all-wheel steer loader offers both all-wheel steer and skid-steer drive options by simply pressing a switch — has a vertical lift path and a 3,325-pound rated operating capacity.

The A770 replaces the A300 model, and was designed to meet the needs of users who require the low ground disturbance, reduced tire wear and faster travel speed of a small wheel loader, but also the maneuverability and versatility of a skid-steer. That makes the A770 a suitable machine for landscapers, retaining wall installers, paving crews and general contractors, as well as industrial users who face multiple operating conditions on a daily basis.

It comes standard with two-speed transmission and a travel speed of 12.3 mph in high range and 7.1 mph in low range. The A770 is equipped with a 92-horsepower, liquid-cooled Tier-3 diesel engine and has an operating weight of 9,460 pounds.

New job-enhancing features were added to the optional deluxe instrumentation panel. Available only on M-Series machines, the panel intelligently monitors key loader functions, and the keyless start with password protection helps prevent theft. The new 5-inch, full-color LCD screen offers better readability and interaction. Easy-to-read virtual sweep gauges allow the operator to quickly read and understand the machine’s performance.
