The Bruder CAT Excavator will be a splendid addition to your child's construction fleet. This workhorse has a shovel arm that is fully functional using the hand lever. The cab can swing 360 degrees and the excavator arm can operate below vehicle level when digging drainage ditches. The Cat's treads are genuine chain links giving it solid footing. The cab door opens, and the engine hatches can be opened for maintenance and, if necessary, repairs.
