The E26 is your solution for challenging tasks on hard-to-reach worksites. Equipped with a long-arm, the minimal tail-swing E26 delivers added reach and dig depth. It’s easy to transport and leaves behind minimal ground disturbance.

HIGHLIGHTS
• The E26 features a 24.8-horsepower engine, robust hydraulics and hefty cylinders that work together to deliver powerful breakout forces.
• The exclusive Bobcat in-track swing frame allows you to get even closer to your work. Swing castings and cylinders stay within the tracks when offset digging, increasing your ability to work in tight areas.
• This small but mighty excavator also features a dual-flange track roller system that enhances over-the-side digging and improves the ride quality.

FEATURES & BENEFITS
2-SPEED TRAVEL
Maneuver faster with the Bobcat 2-Speed option. The quicker you can move on your jobsite, the faster you can complete your work. Select low range for pushing and dozing and high range for increased jobsite mobility.

AUTO SHIFT
Auto-Shift travel shifts the machine out of high range and back automatically, offering superb travel performance without having to manually downshift. It automatically transitions the travel motors to and from high range, giving you greater tractive effort with no manual shifting. Simply select the travel speed range and go. A directional lug track also provides a smoother ride and less vibration when traveling. Optional on the E20 model.

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.

ADVANCED HYDRAULICS*
Whether you’re traveling across a jobsite, backfilling, or digging, your excavator’s hydraulic system contributes to performance more than any other feature. When compared to other brands, advanced hydraulics on Bobcat® excavators deliver the most horsepower in working range.

PREDICTABLE CONTROL*
Bobcat® compact excavators deliver the house, boom, arm and bucket control you expect in the most challenging work environments. It’s the confidence in these precise movements that determines whether you complete the job using your machine, or with two workers and a pair of shovels.

BLADE FLOAT
Simplify grading and leveling. Blade float exerts a minimal, consistent down-force on the blade, with minimal operator input.

PREMIUM CAB*
Premium comfort gives you the endurance to power through long days and tough jobs. When you step inside the Bobcat compact (mini) excavator cab, you’ll see refinements everywhere you look, including plenty of headroom and legroom, clear visibility, and a larger suspension seat. Each feature has been designed to help keep you working all day long.

AUTO IDLE
Auto Idle makes it easier and quieter to pause your work, take a quick break or communicate on the jobsite - all while saving fuel. When machine functions aren’t used, the machine automatically idles the engine until you start working again.

IN-TRACK SWING FRAME
The exclusive In-Track Swing Frame on Bobcat® compact excavators gets you closer to your work.

When you dig in an offset position, the swing castings and cylinders remain within the tracks to help you work in small spaces. You can dig flush against an obstacle, minimizing the chances of inadvertent contact. Ultimately, you can reduce operating costs of repairs to your machines or adjacent structures.

Other brands cannot match this feature: When they work in an offset digging position, their components extend outside the tracks and reduce their ability to dig in tight areas.

PROTECTED COMPONENTS
No other manufacturer provides so many job-proven features to give you more uptime in the field. Bobcat® compact excavators have more standard features that help you stay on the job longer. Bobcat steel hydraulic lines offer better protection than rubber hoses. They’re routed through the lower portion of the boom swing casting and tucked securely into the top area of the boom structure, preventing costly damage and protecting component life. Hoses have more steel tubing, well-designed mounts and minimal fittings.

The boom, arm and attachment/bucket offer better lifting performance and even longer durability. Cast pivot joints provide precise pin alignment which lengthens the service life of pivot pins and bushings. The work group easily accommodates a second set of auxiliary hydraulics, so you can add the option faster and for less cost. Plus, a strong, lightweight composite door on cab models withstands years of tough work.

SIMPLE MACHINE TIE-DOWN
Get on and off the jobsite faster. Secure your load quickly, without searching for hard-to-reach tie-downs.

INTEGRATED SLEW BRAKES
Integrated slew brakes hold your load steady on slopes for more accurate placement. It’s easier to position the excavator, and you no longer need to manually engage the slew brake during transport.

X-FRAME UNDERCARRIAGE
With better ground clearance, the X-frame undercarriage improves your performance in difficult conditions. Dirt and other materials easily pass through this undercarriage, making cleanup faster and leaving less debris on the trailers.

The X-frame undercarriage design places drive motors within the width of the tracks, protecting the assembly and improving agility in soft conditions. The recessed motor covers eliminate potential damage and improve your uptime on the job.

PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY
Bobcat controls and electrical systems are engineered with more watertight, corrosion-resistant connectors than other manufacturers’ machines.

MULTIPLE TAILSWING CONFIGURATIONS
Choose an excavator model with the tail swing configuration that best matches the needs of your jobsite. Models provide different levels of maneuverability.

CONVENTIONAL TAIL SWING
Conventional tail swing models deliver the greatest lift capacity in the excavator lineup. Conventional tail swing excavators also have a narrower stance (width) for easier loading onto a trailer and better access through doorways, gates, property lines or other tight areas on the job site.

MINIMAL TAIL SWING
Minimal tail swing provides more maneuverability than conventional tail swing, however the rear of the house protrudes as much as 6 in. beyond the width of the tracks. Slew and deposit soil where you need it, reposition the machine fewer times, and worry less about inadvertently contacting any surrounding objects.

ZERO TAIL SWING (ZTS)
Zero Tail Swing (ZTS) excavators give you more unrestricted rotation and provides greater flexibility if you are constantly working close to objects or against a wall. The rear of the house stays within the width of the tracks through full rotation.

MACHINE IQ
