Bobcat E40 Canopy Excavator

High Performance. Unmatched Visibility. Simple Maintenance.

The Bobcat E40 redefines what a 4-ton excavator can do. Engineered to deliver the lift capacity of a larger machine with the maneuverability of a compact, the E40 features a minimal tail swing (less than 2 inches of overhang) and a standard long arm to tackle demanding tasks in tight quarters.

This Canopy (ROPS/TOPS/FOPS) model is the ideal choice for operators who prioritize maximum 360-degree visibility, easy frequent entry/exit, and lower overhead clearance for working under low structures or tree canopies.

Performance & Power

  • Tier 4 Turbocharged Engine: Powered by a 40.4-HP Bobcat engine that delivers high torque even at high elevations.

  • Non-DPF Solution: Meets emissions standards without a diesel particulate filter, eliminating work stoppages for DPF regeneration and reducing long-term maintenance costs.

  • Leading Lift Capacity: Best-in-class over-the-blade and over-the-side lifting performance allows you to handle heavier loads without the footprint of a conventional tail-swing machine.

  • Fast Cycle Times: Finely tuned hydraulics and a durable slew bearing ensure smooth, predictable control when backfilling or slewing uphill.

Operator-Focused Canopy Design

  • Unobstructed Visibility: Without cab pillars or glass reflections, you have a clear line of sight to the workgroup, blade edge, and surrounding job site.

  • Open-Air Efficiency: Perfect for “stop-start” tasks where the operator needs to jump on and off frequently without dealing with doors.

  • Rugged Durability: The open-station design is “bush-ready”—no expensive glass to shatter when working near low-hanging branches or brush.

  • Standard Long Arm: Adds 12 inches of additional digging depth and reach without sacrificing breakout force.
