What is a skid steer loader?
Easily manoeuvred, compact in size and compatible with dozens of attachments, skid steer loaders are suitable for a wide range of applications. From moving materials on a construction site or cleaning barns on the farm to landscaping parks, gardens or building roads. The size of skid steer you need depends on the task required and the size of the work site.
Originally designed with a steerable rear wheel the concept evolved to make all 4 wheels fixed. The weight is distributed so that one end is always heavier than the others. When the wheels on the heavier end counter rotate to pivot the loader, the wheels on the lighter end are ‘skidded’ in the direction of the turn.
These compact loaders can be driven on wheels or tracks which can be operated at different speeds to create a skidding effect during operation. The ‘skidding’ motion results in zero-degree radius turns, ideal for working in tight spaces and precision demanding tasks. The skid motion makes these loaders very efficient in working conditions where the ground is uneven.
Who makes the best Skid Steer loader?
Manitou has specialised in the design of loaders and forklifts for several decades. This extensive experience has led to the development of a range of machines which precisely meet the handling requirements of agricultural and construction professionals. With Manitou skid steer loaders, you can easily travel on all types of ground. Designed to be compact, Manitou Skid Steers are ideal for working in congested or cramped work areas.
Not only compact, Manitou skid steer loaders have the advantage of being extremely versatile. A wide range of attachments are available to carry out a diverse range of tasks. Using a skid steer loader for these tasks replaces time consuming manual labour on smaller sites.
Manitou Skid Steer Loaders are manufactured using highly reliable components in a robust and resistant structure. The manufacture and design make Skid Steer Loaders a great investment with a high resale value providing they come with low hours and have been well maintained in-line with manufacturer requirements.
What sizes of Manitou Skid Steer Loader are available?
Skid steer size refers to the size of the frame, the rated operating capacity (ROC) and horsepower (HP). Skid steer loader sizes can be categorised by Small Frame (800kg |under 50hp), Medium Frame (800kg – 1000kg | 50 – 70hp) and Large Frame (1,000kg+ |70hp+). The size you need depends on your job requirements and site dimensions.
Small Frame skid steers are best suited to applications including interior demolition, landscaping or any projects that require moving between narrow spaces or around tight corners. The smaller the loader, the easier it is to transport the equipment between work sites.
Medium Frame & Large Frame Skid Steers are best suited to roadworks and larger scale, more heavy-duty applications.

The team at Northern Lift Trucks can help you at any time to choose a forklift truck model suited to your requirements.
Who uses a forklift?
Forklifts are used by many diverse sectors, such as manufacturing, equipment distribution, foods industries and waste management as well as professionals in agriculture and construction industries.
What are the different size forklifts?
Forklifts are available in a variety of lengths, widths, mast heights and lifting capacities.
What is a forklift designed to do?
A forklift is designed to lift and move materials over short distances.
What categories of forklift are there?
Manitou now offers you a wide range of ranges: all-terrain forklift trucks (MC, M); electric (ME), internal combustion (MI) and hydrostatic transmission (MSI) forklift trucks particularly adapted to rougher terrain applications.
What is the difference between a reach truck and forklift?
On a counterbalance forklift, the forks stick out from the front of the vehicle and there are no protruding arms or legs; meaning the truck can be manoeuvred right up close to the racking or location of the load. A reach truck takes its name from the machine’s ability to ‘reach’ out further than its stabilising legs.
How do I choose a forklift?
When selecting the right forklift, the primary criteria are the load capacity, the lift height, the fuel type and the tyre composition:
Lift Height
How high do you need to lift your loads? If you need to load/unload from trailers, pay attention to the lowered mast height of the forklift.
Capacity
What is the maximum weight you need to lift? It’s important to buy a forklift that can handle more than your heaviest load. Keep in mind that attachments will reduce your forklift’s capacity. The most common forklift capacities are:
1000kg or less | 1,000 – 3,000kg | 3,000 – 3600kg | 3,600kg – 5,550kg | 5,500 – 8,000kg | 8,000kg +
Fuel – Electric or Internal Combustion
IC forklifts use traditional engines that run on different types of fuel (CNG, diesel, gas, or liquid propane). Electric forklifts are powered by batteries. If you handle food, you’ll likely need an electric forklift to adhere to emission requirements. However, many applications that once used IC forklifts are finding that electric conversion saves both time and money.
What kind of forklift do I need?
Important factors to consider are where you are using the forklift; Will it be used indoor or outdoor or both? How wide are the aisles and doorways? Will it be used on concrete or rough terrain?
It is also important to work out how many hours per day and how many hours per week you will use the forklift.
What type of forklift is best for indoor use?
The best forklift for indoor use, such as warehouses is a Manitou ME electric forklift.
What type of forklift would you use in a confined space?
The type of forklift best suited to use in confined spaces is a Manitou ME electric 3 wheeled forklift.

About Manitou
Since Northern Lift Trucks became Manitou Dealers in 1985, the Manitou brand has gone from strength to strength throughout Northern Ireland and Co. Donegal.
Manitou pride themselves on technologically advanced machinery, designed to reduce your cost of ownership. Every Manitou machine is built for power, versatility and efficiency to make your day-to-day operations as productive as possible.
Manitou machinery began with the world’s first compact forklift, based on an idea by Marcel Braud in 1958.
Having established themselves as the provider of world class industrial masted forklift trucks, the
Manitou Telescopic Handler entered the market in quick succession. Today, the Manitou range of Telescopic Handlers, include Manitou’s Rotating Telescopic Handlers and Heavy Telescopic Handlers.
Manitou reached new heights in 1995, with the launch of their first aerial work platform, supplying access and handling solutions worldwide.
