Bobcat e42 excavator is a member of the R2 series. The e42 Bobcat is outfitted with features that allow it to excel in a wide range of applications. Its applications range from light construction to heavy demolition. The machine is also used for gardening and landscaping. Bobcat e42 mini excavator can be used for road construction, sewer maintenance, water line installation, grading, and snow removal, among other things.
The Bobcat e42 has a lifting capacity of 4900 pounds, allowing it to operate at high speeds while performing heavy-duty tasks like digging trenches or moving large rocks. Because of its low center of gravity and operating weight of 2800 pounds, this machine is less likely to tip over during operation. This makes it safer for operators because they don’t have to worry about the machine collapsing on them while they’re working.
With its powerful, efficient, and versatile features, the Bobcat e42 provides user convenience. The operator station on the e42 Bobcat is rock-solid, with a new design that maximizes visibility and comfort. The operator has more control over the machine and can see gauges, switches, and knobs from any angle. The seat is hydraulically adjustable for added comfort, security, and convenience. In addition to its comfortable design, this machine’s operator station provides easy access to critical controls, such as the hydraulic system pressure gauge on top of the hydraulic control panel for quick pressure monitoring; additional controls are located within easy reach on either side of the seat for quick adjustments during operation. The excavator has an electronically controlled quick coupler and a digging depth of up to 7 feet 6 inches. It also includes an auto-idle feature, which allows the machine to idle when not in use.
Bobcat e42 has a strong steel frame that allows it to carry extra weight while remaining stable at all times. It also has a standard boom hoist cable guard, which helps prevent damage when lifting heavier loads or working in areas with overhead obstructions.
