As the most powerful and largest Ditch Witch stand-on skid steer to date, the SK3000 is built to take on landscape, hardscape, and tree-care projects usually reserved for traditional skid steers and compact track loaders. However, its design offers the convenience of not climbing in and out of a cab, 360-degree visibility, and increased maneuverability over traditional models.

The SK3000 is the most powerful stand-on skid steer in its class. It has a lift capacity of 3,100 lbs. — 50% more than its closest competitor. It can direct up to 51 hp to attachments, and it delivers 5,500 lbs. of breakout force to help operators lift and move heavy loads with a bucket.

At the same time, the SK3000 only weighs 7,600 lbs. — much less than comparable full-sized skid steers. This makes the SK3000 more maneuverable and easily transportable.

In addition, the SK3000 is designed to make jobs easier for operators. It has an optional dual self-leveling kit that keeps loads level as they are raised or lowered. An open, standing operator station provides full 360-degree visibility. And its best-in-class 332-square-inch operator platform helps keep operators comfortable on the job.

The SK3000 can also boost job productivity with its advanced hydraulic system. It comes with an 8-, 14- and 22-gallons-per-minute flow setting — the 22-gallon-per-minute setting is a Ditch Witch exclusive. This allows operators to select the right flow for each job. Hydraulic-operated attachment pins also simplify the process when swapping attachments — and operators don’t even need to get off the machine to swap non-powered attachments.
