2020 Bobcat® Soil Conditioner Manual - 48"

Prepare the land and lay a good foundation with the soil conditioner attachment. The rotating drum is equipped with carbide-tipped teeth, which rip through clumps and penetrate the soil.

To level and grade a surface, lock the drum for a box blade effect. Or place the drum in the float position to prepare the soil while following the contours of the terrain. The soil conditioner is a versatile, cost-effective attachment no landscaping crew should be without.

Pulverize the soil while leveling and filling in fewer passes with the soil conditioner attachment.

With a larger displacement motor, direct drive, fully-welded frame and simple maintenance, Bobcat soil conditioners are built tougher. Compare the Bobcat design and quality with other soil conditioners.

Other soil conditioners have design flaws that slow you down on the job. With convenient controls, automatic depth control, oscillating front wheels and other features, Bobcat soil conditioners save time and let you tackle tougher landscapes. See the difference in this side-by-side comparison.

• Integrated controls: Control the angle and depth from integrated controls inside the cab. Compare the controls of other brands by watching the performance challenge video.

• Front Bolster: Designed with a wide stance, the front bolster provides enough room between the wheels and drum to let material in front of the drum, delivering better grade control. Flip the bolster up to create extra room for storage or when transporting. Compare the design of other brands in the performance challenge video.

• Oscillating Bolster: Keeps the drum parallel to the ground and minimizes elevation changes from bumps and potholes. Watch the performance challenge video to see it in action.

• Removable End Plates: Used to achieve a box blade effect. When removable end plates are attached, soil in front of the drum is carried along and can be used to fill in low spots for an even finish. Without, material is pushed to the side and can later be picked up with a bucket.

• Rubber Flap: Keeps large material from going over the drum and allows finer material through.
