New Stage V models of the M-Series S630 and S650 skid steer loaders have been launched by Bobcat. This expands the offering available, with customers having the choice of M-Series S630/S650 models and the more advanced R-Series S66/S76.
The S630 has a rated operating capacity of 1012kg and a tipping load of 2023kg, while the S650 has a rated operating capacity of 1227kg and a tipping load of 2455kg.
Both are powered by the Bobcat D24 engine, with Bosch fuel injection. The new engine setup reportedly reduces fuel consumption and offers extended maintenance periods, with the first oil service now 500 hours.
Options include cab heating or air conditioning, as well as the Auto Ride Control. On machines equipped with Selectable Joystick Controls (SJC), the auto-idle feature reduces the engine speed to low idle when the joysticks are in the neutral position and have not been used for about five seconds.
Base models feature the Deluxe control panel and the company’s telematics system. The new skid steers also come with two years/2,000 hours warranty as standard.
