WEST FARGO, N.D. (August 12, 2026) – Bobcat Company, a global equipment, innovation and worksite solutions brand, has expanded its forestry offerings with the factory-installed Land Management Package on the Bobcat T86-2 compact track loader. Designed for mulching, right-of-way maintenance, trail development, property improvement and land-clearing operations, the package combines specialized guarding, operator comfort features and performance enhancements to help customers tackle challenging jobsite conditions.

"This package gives customers a T86-2 that's factory-equipped with the features and protection needed for demanding land management applications, helping maximize productivity from day one." 

Powered by the T86-2 Platform 

The T86-2 is the largest and most powerful compact track loader in the Bobcat lineup, now delivering 115 horsepower, a 3,925-pound rated operating capacity and Super Flow hydraulics with up to 42 gallons per minute of hydraulic flow. With a 12-foot lift height and the capability to run demanding attachments such as drum mulchers and disc mulchers, the T86-2 is built for high-production work. 

Available technologies, including Jobsite Companion, provide operators with additional tools to improve efficiency in the field.  

The package can also simplify machine preparation for dealers by reducing the time and labor often associated with installing forestry-related accessories after production.
