Bobcat has extended the company’s Compact Wheel Loader portfolio with the introduction of the new L95 model, adding to the L85 and L75 compact wheel loaders launched over the past two years.

The firm points to a range of benefits with the L95 ‘Premium’ model including controls described as intuitive, as well as ease of use, operator comfort, and attachment flexibility.

Jiri Karmazin, Loaders Product Manager at Bobcat, said: “High performance is assured in the L95 by the combination of the powerful Bobcat 75 HP engine, the hydraulics, and the 40 km/h maximum travel speed.

“As in the L75 and L85, this is complemented by the comfortable and spacious cab, combined with the high stability and lift capacity and impressive breakout, push and pull forces, together with a comprehensive selection of Bobcat attachments. The enhanced Automatic Ride Control system protects operators from any bumps or rough terrain.

“In the L95, we are introducing some new features to the industry to further improve ease of use. The joystick is now integrated with the suspension seat to provide the best operator experience and comfort.

“The location of the controls on the joystick is designed to make it easy and comfortable to operate, even during long hours of work.

“Based on customer feedback, we have also improved the forward-reverse response time, together with increased lift and tilt multifunctionality, to enhance productivity and operating experience.”

The machine is equipped with Automatic Parking Brake and Slope Assist features, ensuring the parking brake on the L95 is automatically engaged and disengaged as required.

A fully adjustable and heated premium seat, the HVAC system, and the two-way adjustable steering column ensure operator comfort, while a full glass door and powerful LED lights guarantee excellent visibility at all times and operators can stay connected with a DAB+ radio and hands-free function for phone calls.

The L95 is also equipped with a newly enhanced Power Quick-Tach system compatible with widely used industry standard couplers.

The Power Quick-Tach has been redesigned to simplify and further protect hydraulic connections, particularly when exchanging attachments. In addition, there is the latest version of the Bob-Tach Adapter for installing approved Bobcat attachments and the Power Bob-Tach system is available as an option.

Operators of the L95 can now shift when stopped from 1st to 2nd gear, allowing acceleration up to 40 km/h to increase the boundaries on a farm, without needing additional resources such as organizing transportation on a truck.

The higher speed can provide significant savings and enhances the daily utilisation of the machine.
