It is possible to equip the machine with all the customary work attachments of an excavator. The standard backhoe bucket of 800 / 600 litres has drain holes for water. The structure of the pontoon undercarriage The track units of the Big Float comprise a sprocket, an idler, track rollers and standard type track-chains, which roll around the two pontoons. Thanks to the unit’s new construction, which has been patented worldwide, the driver can use the hydraulic cylinder to pull the pontoons closer together for driving onto a low-loader or transporting over public roads. On Big Float machines it is possible to attach additional pontoons and hydraulically operated support outriggers to the sides of the pontoons. These attachments are provided as an option.

Excellent manoeuvrability in areas where traditional machines cannot even go The Big Float travels from the transport platform to the work site on its tracks - no hoists are required. The pontoons ensure the floatability of the machine in the water and the safe travel as well on the soft marshlands as in the water. Under favourable conditions the machine can also be transported in the water by towing.The working depth of the machines without outriggers is -
