The ACE AX 124 backhoe loader is known for its dependable Tata engine and hydrostatic steering for precise control, making it suitable for various construction applications. The Bull HD96 4WD backhoe loader boasts a more powerful Kirloskar engine with advanced 4WD capability for superior power and stability in challenging environments. Both machines have GPS tracking as standard, but differ in engine power, digging capabilities, and breakout forces.
The choice between the ACE AX 124 and Bull HD96 4WD should be based on specific job requirements. If power, digging depth, and breakout force are crucial, the Bull HD96 4WD may be the better option despite its higher price. If budget and maximum speed for site transit are more important without significantly compromising on performance, the ACE AX 124 might be more suitable.
