A skid steer is a versatile tool used in many different industries such as construction, landscaping, and agriculture. The traditional skid steer is operated manually by a person sitting inside the cab. However, advances in technology have enabled remote controlled skid steers to be available on the market. This new option provides numerous advantages over manual operation.
The biggest advantage of having a remote controlled skid steer is safety. By operating the machine remotely instead of from within the cab, workers can avoid potential risks associated with being inside the vehicle such as dust inhalation and contact with hazardous materials. Furthermore, operators can remain outside of danger zones while controlling their machine from a safe distance away.
In addition to safety benefits, remote control also allows for improved maneuverability and efficiency when compared to manual operation. Operators can more accurately navigate tight spaces or around obstacles due to having better visibility from an external perspective than what would be available from within the cab of the machine itself.
