Bobcat Company has expanded its forestry offerings with the factory-installed Land Management Package on the Bobcat T86-2 compact track loader.

"Land management and forestry jobs demand equipment that can stand up to tough conditions," said Jeremy Harms, product manager of Bobcat. "This package gives customers a T86-2 that's factory-equipped with the features and protection needed for demanding land management applications, helping maximize productivity from day one."

The T86-2 is the largest compact track loader in the Bobcat lineup, now delivering 115 hp, a 3,925-lb. rated operating capacity and Super Flow hydraulics with up to 42 gal. per minute of hydraulic flow. With a 12-ft. lift height and the capability to run demanding attachments such as drum mulchers and disc mulchers, the T86-2 is built for high-production work.
