Compact Excavator / Attachment Versatility

Pro Clamp™ System – Compact Excavators

Expand the usual capabilities of a clamp attachment with the Pro Clamp system. As an alternative to a clamp attachment, the Pro Clamp system consists of a base component, standard pin-on work tool and optional grading tool. The system allows you to:

  • Optimize the standard clamp configuration for the task at hand. Grab large, small or irregular objects with greater confidence. You can also follow the bucket farther towards rollout compared to a standard clamp attachment.
  • Create a smooth trench bottom with the grading tool, avoiding the need for a second “smooth lip” bucket.
  • Clean up spoil piles quickly with the grading tool, reducing manual labor.
  • Remove the tool when trenching, giving you enhanced visibility into the trench area.

Compare Brands

Many brands of compact excavators offer clamps, but only the Pro Clamp system lets you easily change the orientation of the clamp, giving you the ability to grab differently sized objects. With the optional grading tool, you can use the same attachment to smooth trench bottoms and even clean up spoil. When comparing Caterpillar®, John Deere®, or Kubota® compact excavators, you won’t find anything like it.
