Giant skid steer loaders: flexible and powerful
Giant reports that it has ramped up production of its first skid steer loader at its new European facility in Oisterwijk, the Netherlands.

The first machines have been delivered to dealers in Germany, Switzerland, Netherlands, Denmark and the United Kingdom.

Giant skid steer loaders combine a low weight - 750kg - and compact size with a high tractive force and tipping load.

This makes the machines extremely flexible and suitable to use for different areas of application. The machine is ideal for road construction. But a wide range of attachments makes it also suitable for agricultural work, property maintenance and simple light private use.

The skid steer loader comes in three models: a petrol version with a 15.6kW engine and two diesel versions of 15kW and 18.6kW outputs. The machines are equipped with four powerful but low-maintenance hydraulic wheel motors.

Giant machinery and attachments have been manufactured by Tobroco Machines in The Netherlands since 1996. Tobroco incorporates components made by 1265 Kubota, 2253 Bosch Rexroth and Comer. All machines are developed and built by a team of 130 employees.
