A skid steer loader is a compact machine whose left and right wheels or tracks can be driven at different speeds, allowing it to turn within a very small area. Lift arms accept buckets and other attachments for loading, digging, grading, and material handling. The compact footprint and skid-steering method suit confined sites but can create frequent direction changes and close work around obstacles. Attachments may include forks, augers, sweepers, breakers, and snow equipment. Lighting should maintain visibility of the attachment and its edges while also covering the travel path, sides, rear, and nearby personnel.
