The small Spanish village of Ontinar de Salz, located in Zuera, Zaragoza, has acquired a new Bobcat L28 small articulated loader to assist with landscaping, cleaning, and maintenance tasks around the community.
The L28 model was chosen for its versatility, as the village required a multi-purpose machine to handle daily municipal tasks such as sweeping, weeding, breaking concrete, moving loads, and even mowing the soccer field. The Bobcat L28 is designed to minimize ground disturbance, and its turf-safe mode ensures that grass surfaces are not damaged during operation.
An All-in-One Solution for Tight Spaces
Bobcat small articulated loaders offer an ideal all-in-one solution for tasks in confined spaces, making them perfect for a small village. The machine’s compact size and tight turning radius allow it to work in hard-to-reach areas, while its articulation joint provides exceptional maneuverability. Despite its small footprint, the L28 delivers impressive performance with its high-torque engine, making it a powerful and efficient multi-purpose tool for various applications.
Exceptional Versatility with Attachments
Alfredo Gaspar, the Mayor of Ontinar de Salz, expressed his satisfaction with the Bobcat L28: “It’s the perfect model for our needs due to its compact dimensions, ideal for narrow streets, and its ease of operation. It’s incredibly versatile, allowing us to perform different tasks with a quick change of attachments.”
The L28’s versatility is enhanced by Bobcat’s hybrid Bob-Tach system, which allows for compatibility with both small and standard attachments. This makes it easy for operators to switch tasks quickly without leaving the cab. The Bobcat equipment also works seamlessly with the company’s original attachments, simplifying the process of changing tasks.
Improved Efficiency, Comfort, and Intuitive Operation
Gaspar continued, “We chose Bobcat because neighboring municipalities use Bobcat equipment and are very satisfied with its performance. The L28 loader is effective in both urban environments and open terrain.”
He also highlighted the loader’s ability to mechanize manual tasks, significantly improving efficiency. With attachments such as a brush cutter, hydraulic breaker, sweeper, and pallet forks, the loader is ideal for maintaining and developing green spaces. “It’s a modern machine with essential safety features for our operators. The cab is comfortable, and fuel consumption matches the data on the technical sheet,” Gaspar added.
Operators appreciate the loader’s ease of handling and comfort, particularly for street cleaning tasks. The L28’s impressive lifting capacity, stability, and telescopic arm allow for smooth load placement in tight spaces. Its 360° visibility ensures safety and efficiency when operating in the village’s narrow streets.
Gaspar concluded, “This machine is essentially several machines in one. We’re extremely happy with it and the excellent service from our local dealer, JRA Maquinaria. We rate this model 10 out of 10.”
