Bobcat E42 Compact Excavator
The Bobcat® E42 compact excavator (mini excavator) minimizes ground disturbance and excels at bulk excavation tasks. The conventional tail swing offers improved dig depth and reach. It’s also easier to move your machine through tight spaces such as doors, gates, and onto trailers. The Tier 4-compliant E42 can be equipped with a long arm to increase your dig depth and reduce your repositioning.
Features may include:
Arm Configurations
Choose the arm configuration that best meets your needs. The standard power arm offers maximum arm breakout force.
Hydraulic X-Change System
Activate the hydraulic pins at the press of a switch; retract for attachment removal or extend for attachment hook up. Hydraulic X-Change maintains optimal “pin-on” bucket geometry so arm and bucket forces are not compromised.
Extendable Arm
As needed, the arm can be hydraulically extended up to 30 in., and then retracted to its standard position for maximum arm force and lift performance. The extendable arm cylinder is powered by the primary auxiliary circuit, and a paddle on the right-hand joystick controls the extension and retraction of the arm.
Selectable Auxiliary Hydraulic Flow
Many Bobcat® compact excavators are equipped with selectable auxiliary hydraulics. Three flow rates help you optimize the response of hydraulic attachments such as PowerTilt® and Hydra-Tilt™ swing accessories, clamps, grapples, hydraulic breakers and auger attachments. Select low flow for precise control, medium flow for placing or handling materials, or maximum flow for peak hydraulic attachment performance.
Angle Blade
It provides simultaneous up/down and angle adjustment, up to 25 degrees left or right. The Bobcat bolt-on replaceable cutting edge that is easy to rotate and simple to replace, providing lower operating costs.
Selectable Control Pattern
Easily change between “excavator” and “backhoe” patterns. No keys are required.
Auto Idle
Auto Idle makes it easier – and quieter – to pause your work, take a quick break or communicate on the jobsite. You’ll save fuel too. When machine functions aren’t used for more than four seconds, the machine automatically idles the engine until work resumes. When you move the joystick controls or initiate travel, the excavator automatically returns to the previously set throttle position. Auto idle can be enabled or disabled as needed.
Fingertip Boom Swing Control
Bobcat® excavator controls allow you to make fine movements with low effort and maximum comfort – so you can get precise results in less time, with less fatigue. A rocker-style thumb switch, located on the left joystick, provides superior boom swing control with better metering than foot pedals. Multifunction operation, such as swinging and traveling simultaneously, is also easier. With the boom swing control on the joystick, you get more floor space and foot room that provides a comfort advantage on long, tiring jobs.
