Skid Steer

What is a Skid Steer used for?

A skid steer is a small construction equipment that is used primarily for digging. In addition, it can be used for lifting, moving material, removing dirts, spreading material, et cetera. The skid steer is a light and manoeuvrable equipment which makes it versatile.

A typical skid steer does not have any steering mechanism integrated with it. It manoeuvres by skidding (dragging) across the ground where it is placed.
