MECHANICAL
The Bobcat CT225's 4x4 MFWD (Mechanical Front-Wheel Drive) provides superior traction across varied terrains, making it ideal for both agricultural and landscaping tasks. With hydrostatic power steering, operators benefit from enhanced maneuverability and ease of use, particularly in tight spaces. The folding ROPS (Roll Over Protection Structure) is advantageous for safety compliance and allows for reduced height during transport, but it's essential to ensure proper locking during operation for maximum protection.
