The compact track loader works with six attachments: a standard bucket, a Harley rake, a six-way dozer blade, a vibratory roller, a grapple and forks. Changing the attachment lets one machine take on several suitable tasks on the same site, which can mean fewer separate machine bookings and fewer transport movements.
