Skidsteers & Attachments
Home » Our Services » Large & Operated Equipment » Skidsteers
Skidsteers are compact, highly manoeuvrable machines used for loading, material handling and general site work. Their small footprint and powerful hydraulic systems make them ideal for working in confined spaces where larger equipment may not be suitable.
Bo’s Plant & Tool Hire supplies skidsteers including CAT B226 models, along with a range of attachments to suit different site applications.

Versatile Site Equipment
One of the key advantages of a skidsteer is its ability to perform multiple tasks using different attachments. This makes it a practical solution for projects that require flexibility without the need for multiple machines.
Skidsteers are commonly used for:
- Loading and moving material
- Site clearing and preparation
- Backfilling and levelling
- Handling aggregates, soil and debris
- General construction and maintenance work
Their compact design allows them to operate efficiently in tight spaces such as residential sites, commercial areas and restricted access zones.
Attachments for different tasks
Skidsteers can be fitted with a variety of attachments depending on the work required. This allows a single machine to adapt to different site conditions and applications.
Common attachment uses include:
- Buckets for loading and material handling
- Forks for lifting and transporting pallets or materials
- Other specialised attachments for site-specific tasks
Using the correct attachment improves efficiency and allows the machine to perform a wider range of functions on site.
The CAT B226
The CAT B226 skidsteer is designed for reliability, power and control. It offers strong lifting capability and smooth operation, making it suitable for both construction and general site applications.
Its compact size, combined with hydraulic performance, allows for effective operation across a range of working environments.
Choosing The Right Setup
When selecting a skidsteer, it is important to consider both the machine and the attachment required for the job. The type of material, site conditions and access constraints all influence the most suitable setup.
Using the correct combination ensures better productivity, improved handling and more efficient site operations.
