Bobcat Company’s E32i and E35i excavators are Tier 4-compliant and feature increased fuel efficiency and a new forward-mount instrumentation system. The E32i conventional tail swing model and the E35i Zero Tail Swing excavator are ideal for operating in confined areas.

The two 24.8-hp excavators feature a direct-inject, 1.7L, naturally aspirated diesel engine. They have an Eco Mode feature that provides improved fuel efficiency — up to 8% decrease in fuel consumption.

The forward-mount instrumentation system allows the operator to maintain awareness of machine vitals without losing focus on the task at hand and also improves ergonomics when the operator is interacting with the panel. From the operator’s viewpoint, the location of the panel also aligns with the existing cab components and work group structures to maintain visibility to the attachment.

Both Tier 4 excavator models can be equipped with the optional extendable arm, which is a telescoping arm that provides power and reach. The extendable arm option provides additional reach beyond the standard arm, and allows for the use of a hydraulic clamp, something not possible with any other compact excavator extendable arm on the market, according to the company. The clamp capability is an ideal solution for contractors wanting to pick up and place material such as rocks, landscaping materials, and debris in site preparation applications.
