Buy or hire the D6K LGP if...

A low ground pressure version of Cat's D6K dozer, built with wider tracks to work on soft or wet ground without sinking in. Groundworks and landfill contractors use the LGP variant over the standard D6K where the site itself, not just the job, dictates the machine.

Buy or hire the EZ80 if...

A 6 to 10 tonne machine for site clearance, drainage and bulk digging, often run with a dumper alongside. At 7.9 tonnes it moves on a lorry or low-loader. Dig depth is 4,169 mm. Zero tail swing means the back of the machine stays inside the tracks when it slews, so it can work tight against a wall or in one lane of a road.
