Over · Bobcat S530Overzicht
The Bobcat S530 is a mid-range radial-lift skid-steer loader produced from 2014 to the present, with an operating weight of 2,815 kg and an engine output of 49 hp. It is equipped with a 0.71 m³ bucket and sits firmly in the compact skid-steer segment, positioned for operators who require a balance of manoeuvrability and lifting capacity without stepping into the larger frame classes.
Typische toepassingenWaar deze machine wordt gebruikt
Machines in this class are routinely deployed on construction sites for grading, trenching support, and material handling, as well as in agricultural settings for yard management and loader work. The compact footprint makes the S530 well suited to confined urban job sites, landscaping operations, and light demolition clearance where a larger wheeled loader cannot access. Attachment versatility, a defining characteristic of the skid-steer platform, extends the machine's utility to auger work, pallet forks, and sweeper applications.

Within the compact skid-steer segment, the Bobcat S530 is most frequently cross-shopped against the Caterpillar 236D and the JCB 170. The Caterpillar 236D competes directly on operating weight and power class and benefits from a dealer network that some buyers prioritise for parts access, while the S530's Bobcat lineage carries broad attachment compatibility and a strong aftermarket of proprietary tooling. The JCB 170 offers a comparable power output but employs a different frame geometry, which can influence operator preference and site-specific deployment decisions. Within the S530's own price band, the primary attributes that move individual units are accumulated working hours, maintenance history, configuration choices such as high-flow hydraulics, the presence of a cab versus open ROPS, and the inclusion of a factory-approved attachment package. Condition scoring, particularly the state of the undercarriage, tyres, and hydraulic couplers, has a direct bearing on where a specific machine sits relative to others of the same model year.
