QUESTION:We'll give you a hot deal on a Case 1816 if you
decide you really want one. It's a little run down
but it works and the price is right.
Generally the smaller loaders, like the 1816, that
fit through a 48" doorway, are too small for any
sort of digging. They are fine for moving and loading
manure and loose materials.
ANSWER: In my semi educated opinion, you will find that a small skid steer Bobcat 463/NH120 or the Case 1816 if still made, offer more capability and SAFETY
than the machines you mention. And you will find that they cost about the
same amount of money. They can all lift more than the chase arounds and the
Bobcat has at least as much hydraulic power for attachment use, not sure on
the others. Also you can get a very good used full size Skid Steer for
similar money.
