2023 Bobcat® R2-Series E50 (Long-Arm)

2023 Bobcat® Compact Excavators E50 R2-Series (LA)

The powerful E50 compact (mini) excavator helps you push the limits of productivity with enhanced hydraulic performance, improved efficiency, simplified maintenance and more precise control. Featuring a redesigned Bobcat® engine, this R2-Series excavator boasts a long list of standard features including an improved cooling system to enhance performance, serviceability and component life; low-effort joysticks that respond easily to operator input; hydraulic control for better metering, finite movement and controllability on level grading; and fast cycle times. The excavator also offers a minimal tail swing – less than one inch of overhang – to ensure easy work in tight areas. And, it can be equipped with a long arm to increase dig depth and reduce the frequency of repositioning. Additional options include a state-of-the-art touch display, automatic heat and air conditioning, a rearview camera and angle blade.

Features may include:

• Redesigned for reduced and simplified routine maintenance, the Bobcat® engine on R2-Series excavators delivers the performance you expect. The innovative fuel system, which is more forgiving when fuel levels are low, keeps you working longer. Improved cold-weather operation keeps you productive.

• The integrated lift eye, standard on R2-Series excavators, gives you a convenient method for handling objects or moving items in and out of the trench.

• The cooling system, with side-by-side heat exchangers, controls engine compartment temperature more efficiently than ever before, improving performance and serviceability while protecting engine component life. Cleanout is easier, too. There is no need to separate coolers to clean debris. It also generates less noise to enhance operator comfort.

• 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.

• 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.

• Multiple arm configurations are available on select models: standard, long, and extendable. Depending on the reach, depth, power, and lifting performance you need, there’s an arm to meet the needs of your job and increase productivity.

• Dig with confidence over the side of the machine and experience greater slewing ability thanks to the dual flange track rollers. Operators will also notice smoother, more comfortable ride quality while moving across bumpy jobsites.

• 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. With the boom swing control on the joystick, you get more floor space and foot room for better operator comfort on long, tiring jobs.
