(*)Power Rating is the gross power of the production engine only as measured in accordance with SAE J1995 at 3600 RPM. Mass production engines vary from this value. Actual power output for the engine installed in the delivered machine may vary depending on numerous factors. These factors can include operation speed of the engine in the application, environmental conditions, and other variables.
(**)Tipping Load and Rated Operating Capacity (ROC) have been determined to ISO 14397-1, though the values shown here need to be adjusted for specific attachments. Refer to the section of the Operator’s Manual “Practice Safety at All Times” for Tipping Load and ROC values, for the range of Kanga bucket and fork attachments. Note that ROC is 50% of the Tipping Load for wheel loaders, and 45% for Kanga “over tyre track” loaders.

KANGA KEY FEATURES
No Overhung Load, Engineered Design
All machinery needs engineering strategies to place the least possible load and stress on its components. Not all skid steer loaders are engineered the same. Kanga Loaders are engineered to perform and last. Other manufacturers still mount their wheel motors by bolting them through the sheet metal of the chassis without supporting the wheel motor in a manner that will last the test of time.
Soft Touch Controls
The Kanga designed Soft Touch Control is the softest and most ergonomically friendly control system in the market with Superior operator ergonomics (Raised controls to reduce operator reach and fatigue), Superior Safety (Most responsive, stable and controlled steering), True two-hand operation allows quick proficiency, and Hydraulic Design (Allows minimal training to get the operator to maximum efficiency for attachments).

Unmatched Quality and Support
Each Kanga is designed and manufactured for durability, reliability, productivity, less environmental impact and most importantly a long life! Kanga also maintains an extensive inventory of spare parts that supports our current product range as well as some legacy parts, which are up to 30 years old. With over 5,000 parts on the shelf you can be assured fast acccess to spare parts keeping you on the job!
Ground Clearance
Clear obstacles in uneven terrain, such as gutters, mud, and foreign objects. The greater angle of departure allows easy access on all ground contours and minimizes operators exposure to hazards. Generous bucket rollback coupled with high ground clearance provides optimum stability and allows easy filling and safe transportation without spillage due to the lower centre of gravity.


Larger Operator Platform
The larger operators platform has been ergonomically designed so that the operator can maintain a wider, neutral stance which improves safety and fatigue reduction. The operator is enclosed within the operating platform. Bump protection bars on tanks also provides additional support.
Customised Branding
Whether you need to adhere to corporate branding guidelines or simply want a “one-of a kind” Kanga mini loader, our custom paint option is affordable and will have everyone turning their heads. Show off your favourite footy team or sports car, our specialised paint team and graphic designers are happy to work with you.

Self-levelling
Kanga’s bucket ensures safe, fast, easy operation without the danger of load spillage over the operator. The self-levelling feature also offers superior control allowing the operator to fill the bucket to it’s maximum capacity – making it the only mini Loader in today’s market with this feature.

Points to consider
FREQUENCY OF USE
Generally the frequency of use will determine your power options. Petrol attract the lowest upfront cost, however for those putting big hours on the machine find that the diesel is the cheapest option in the long run. Our sales reps have a handy guide that helps you determine which mini skid steer loader is best for the hours you plan to put on the machine.
ACCESS REQUIREMENTS
As residential blocks in inner cities are becoming smaller, private contractors, pool installers, landscapers etc have started to require a narrower machine. The 2 Series track machine is our narrowest in the fleet at only 770mm wide. Even the large 8 Series machine maintains a width of just over 1 metre. Carefully think about what access restrictions you may face before purchasing a mini skid steer.
TOWING CAPACITY
The towing capacity will determine which sized loader and how many attachments you can fit onto the trailer. The most common type of trailer is our 2tonne alloy as it can fit a 6 series loader with trencher, 4in1 bucket, power head and 3 augers comfortably under 2T. For customers with trucks that have a larger towing capacity, the tandem steel is the popular choice.
GROUND CONDITIONS
One of our most popular questions! Wheels or tracks? Considering wheels does then open up the option to different wheel types for different ground conditions, and are by far the most popular miniloader due to their versatility in different conditions. The Kanga track over wheel system is very popular among wet climates that know they are up for muddy, wet conditions and require a loader that will stick like glue without the burden of ongoing servicing and maintenance/
COST OF OWNERSHIP
One of the most often overlooked factors is cost of ownership. While upfront costs are one consideration, it is over time and throughout the ownership experience that the hidden costs can often become clear. Operating costs, resale value, support network, resources and technical help, as well as a reliable service centre are all equally as important as the initial transaction. When buying a new mini skid steer, don’t just look at the price tag. Think about how much it will cost in the long term, too.
