I'm looking at a CAT 226 or 228 as a general utility machine and a backup loader for when our LHD is down or busy. What issues are these and the 3034C (one guy I work with calls them Perkapillars) known for, and are they generally dependable? My CAT skid-steer experience with other companies is limited to newer D-series units which did just fine, other than quick-coupler failures and the occasional fuel filter.
The hi-flow on the 228 is a bonus as I expect to occasionally rent a rock hammer for breaking oversize and removing small hard knobs.
