Dancat – further models: the collective page for backhoe loaders outside the named series, 240D and 444T, diesel engines with 18 to 33 kW

This page brings together the Dancat construction machines that the register could not assign to a named series – the two backhoe loaders 240D and 444T. Two- to three-digit type designations with an appended letter of this kind are common among smaller construction equipment brands and distinguish size class and equipment variant.

The register lists 2 versions here with 18 to 33 kW, or 24 to 44 hp, each fitted with a diesel engine.

Backhoe loaders in this power class combine a front loader and a rear backhoe on a compact chassis and are used on smaller building sites, in landscaping and in municipal maintenance work, where manoeuvrability and a versatile attachment are needed. In this power segment, numerous smaller and regional manufacturers operate worldwide alongside the large international construction equipment brands. On the used market, small backhoe loaders such as the Dancat models compete mainly with used machines from the large construction equipment manufacturers, which also had or have compact models in this power class in their range.

For a used Dancat, the condition and wear of the bucket, backhoe arm and loader bucket, the tightness of the hydraulic cylinders and lines, the condition of the engine and gearbox, and wear on the axles, brakes and tyres are the key checks. As with many smaller construction equipment makers, spare parts are sourced mainly through independent construction equipment dealers. Equally important are the condition of the electrics and lighting and corrosion on the chassis and sheet metal parts.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Load the hydraulics and watch for sag.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
