Bobcat E40

E40 Compact Excavator

The Bobcat E40 compact excavator delivers one of the highest lift capacities in its size class, giving contractors a clear performance advantage on demanding construction, utility and landscaping jobs. With minimal tail swing — less than two inches of overhang — and a standard long arm for extended reach, the E40 is built to complete big projects in tight workspaces. Powered by a reliable non-DPF Bobcat engine, this compact excavator eliminates regeneration downtime while delivering strong digging and lifting performance. Carefully tuned hydraulics, a durable slew bearing and a finely matched main control valve provide smooth metering, fast cycle times and precise control when backfilling trenches or slewing a loaded bucket uphill.

Designed for durability and operator comfort, the Bobcat E40 features dual-flange track rollers for greater over-the-side lift capacity and a smoother ride across rough jobsites. The efficient cooling system with side-by-side heat exchangers improves temperature control, reduces noise and simplifies cleanout, while extended service intervals — including an increase from 500-hour to 750-hour service interval — help maximize uptime. Inside the spacious cab, tall windows, narrow pillars and a durable polycarbonate top window enhance visibility, while a suspension seat and fold-away pedals increase comfort and floor space. With options like an angle blade for faster grading, bright LED work lights and a standard lift eye for material handling, the E40 compact excavator is engineered to deliver productivity, precision and long-term reliability.

Testimonials

First time owner of a bobcat machine and have seen nothing but great service all around. From Malique on the sales team being highly knowledgeable and straightforward, getting things done fast and right the first time. To the field techs sent out to diagnose and fix the issues covered under warranty. Both Felix and Brock field techs were very thorough in inspecting and updating me consistently during service calls. Over-all very professionally run branch and would highly recommend. Looking forward to doing more business with you guys.

I used Bobcat Brampton for their rental services. I dealt with Chris in the rental department office and he was fantastic. The staff in the yard was extremely helpful and friendly. I cannot emphasize how impressed I was at the level of professionalism and courtesy all the the staff demonstrated. The customer service here is absolutely exceptional. Based on my two rental experiences, I would absolutely purchase a piece of equipment here in the future based off how well I was treated and valued. I will continue to use this location for any additional rental needs. A++ service, thanks so much!

If your interested in purchasing a machine, ask for Ryan Durkin. After putting the deposit for my machine in November to secure fall promotional pricing, my business was secured. Delivery was set for March. During the course of the winter, Ryan answered all my questions with priority and kept working for me until the day my machine was delivered. Usually once a salesman secures the sale, they stop putting forth that extra effort. Not Ryan. Highly recommend.
