Bobcat skid steer loaders are compact pieces of heavy machinery that skid from place to place. Skid steer refers to the way by which the equipment is steered about. Unlike the maneuvering of a car, skid steer loaders are steered by driving one set of wheels while the other set is stationary thus moving the car in the desired direction. The skid steerer was especially designed as such to keep the compact structure able to work in tight-enclosed areas. The bobcat skid also has the ability to "skid" completely around all within it's own length.
