2023 Brandt Government Mini Skid Steers SK1050

Ideally suited for a variety of demanding jobsites, the Ditch Witch SK1050 mini skid steer improves versatility and productivity by directing more hydraulic power to the attachment. The durable, construction-grade design eases operator maintenance for improved ROI, and outperforms all other working machines in its class. Designed specifically for the hardworking operator in mind, the best-in-class, spring-supported operator platform improves comfort for long hours on the job.

Features may include:

• Equipped with a 37-hp Tier 4 Yanmar® diesel engine, the SK1050 directs 30 hp to the attachment, giving operators the power to tackle an assortment of challenging tasks.

• The SK1050’s attachment horsepower, combined with 13.9 gpm auxiliary flow and 3,625 psi (250 bar), results in quicker jobsite cycle times, making your crews more efficient.

• Standard auto-throttle reduces engine throttle when stepping off the platform for greater fuel efficiency.

• The machine is capable of 4.7-mph (7.6-km/h) ground drive speed both forward and in reverse, improving jobsite cycle times and decreasing overall labor costs.

• Best-in-class, 83-inch (2.1-m) hinge-pin height enables more flexible and efficient loading and unloading at a wide range of dump heights and improved operating capacity ensures the machine can withstand maximum weight at maximum height.

• 1,062-lb (482-kg) rated operating capacity with exceptional stability allows operators to effectively maneuver jobsites while carrying heavier loads.

• At 3,625 psi (250 bar), the SK1050 provides more hydraulic pressure to the attachment than comparable industry models, also leading to increased cycle times—saving time and money.

• When enabled, standard auto-throttle reduces engine RPM after periods of sustained inactivity for better fuel economy.

• Built for heavy-duty operation, the robust design of the lift arms, rollers and undercarriage, improves overall machine longevity and ROI.

• A high-drive track system includes bolt-on, interchangeable rollers—a Ditch Witch exclusive—for longer lasting performance.

• Easy access to the machine undercarriage helps keep the machine in proper worker order.

• With no daily maintenance points and no grease zerks, ease of maintenance is improved and total cost of ownership (TCO) reduced.

• Low-maintenance gauge track-tensioning system features a grease cylinder for easy adjustment and track removal, improving track life and reducing downtime.

• A standard hydraulic brake improves operator engagement and disengagement.
