Compact Track Loaders Compared
Compare 10 current US-listed models from six manufacturers using source-attributed specifications. Select up to three; measurement limits remain visible.
Comparing 3 published products
Build your comparison
Select one to three models. Selected models stay visible when filters change. All 10 manufacturer records remain linked below for source review.
Check capacity on the same tipping-load basis, then confirm lift geometry, counterweight, and bucket configuration. Bobcat and Takeuchi percentage bases need manufacturer clarification.
Derived difference among selected non-counterweighted 35% ROC figures: 333 lb. Bucket and track configurations still differ.

Intelligence Report
01 / EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
Decision context
Rated operating capacity, its tipping-load basis, machine configuration, and hinge-pin height frame the loading discussion. They do not establish real-world lift performance on their own.
Evidence at a glance
- 35% ROC without a stated counterweight: 255 2,499 lb; 265 2,823 lb; SVL75-3 2,490 lb.
- Derived 35% ROC spread for 3 selected models on this stated basis: 333 lb. Configuration still matters.
Technical qualification
ROC and hinge-pin height describe different constraints; neither alone proves performance with a specific load or attachment.
Manufacturer-reported evidence · deterministic interpretation · configuration and measurement basis require source review.

04 / TECHNICAL INTERPRETATION
What the evidence supports
Verified differences
- 35% ROC without a stated counterweight: 255 2,499 lb; 265 2,823 lb; SVL75-3 2,490 lb.
- Derived 35% ROC spread for 3 selected models on this stated basis: 333 lb. Configuration still matters.
- Hinge-pin height: 255 124 in; SVL75-3 122.7 in.
Trade-offs and limits
- ROC and hinge-pin height describe different constraints; neither alone proves performance with a specific load or attachment.
Evidence gaps
- 265: hinge-pin height is not established in this record.
Ask the manufacturer
- Which bucket, track, and counterweight configuration applies to the quoted ROC?
- What lift geometry and site conditions apply to the intended load?

Decision-support distinctions
Evidence-backed differences that help frame evaluation. These are not rankings, scores, or purchase recommendations.
For material handling, compare rated operating capacity only when the tipping-load percentage and machine configuration align. Published 35%, 50%, counterweighted 35%, and unstated-basis figures remain separate.
Supported by source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4, source 5, source 6, source 7, source 8, source 9, source 10.
For site preparation and hydraulic attachments, published auxiliary flow, Deere pump flow, and pressure describe different constraints. Confirm the required flow range, pressure, coupler and approved attachment with the manufacturer or dealer before selection.
Supported by source 1, source 2, source 3, source 4, source 5, source 6, source 7, source 8, source 9, source 10.
Comparison limitations
Boundaries that keep manufacturer-attributed evidence from being overstated.
- Specifications are manufacturer-reported, not independent field tests or live AI inference.
- Gross SAE J1995, gross ISO 14396, and unlabeled horsepower are kept on separate rows.
- Operating-weight configurations vary; no weight-based ranking or transport recommendation is made.
- Model year, pricing, dealer stock, attachment fit and ownership costs are not established by these sources.
