The Bobcat E85 is a compact excavator in the 8.5-ton class, designed for digging, trenching, grading, and site preparation in construction and utility applications. It features a reduced-tail-swing design for improved maneuverability in confined spaces and is commonly used on urban job sites, landscaping projects, and infrastructure work. The E85 is typically equipped with a diesel engine, hydraulic auxiliary circuits, and a comfortable operator station with standard excavator controls. Its balance of digging performance, transportability, and attachment compatibility makes it suitable for a range of earthmoving tasks.
