It’s 10 new 1130 Bobcat E19 compact excavators for Stavebniny DEK, a major building materials and equipment rental company in the Czech capital Prague. DEK has been developing a 60-branch nationwide rental network and now has an annual turnover of around €420 million, said Michal Svejcar, director of the DEK rental service.


Local Bobcat dealer Bobcat CZ supplied the machines whose options include the ability to hydraulically retract its undercarriage to a width of less than 1m to travel through restricted and narrow areas. There is also a Lehnhoff MS01 quick-coupler system. The E19 excavators have a heated cab, a radio, an extended arm, wide blades, a suspension seat and keyless ignition.

The E19s rolled off the production line at the Bobcat plant in Dobříš in the Czech Republic already finished in the custom red livery and logos of the DEK rental fleet.
