A Loading Shovel is a piece of construction equipment, its main purpose is for digging and hauling materials. They tend to be used on building sites, farms and quarries. They can either be fitted with wheels or tracks. They are most commonly used for clearing, moving and loading large amounts of aggregates such as soil, waste and rubble etc. with relative ease by use of a bucket attachment, however the attachment can be changed to serve other purposes.
