Here is one of Norscot's first Liebherr models, the R904C tracked excavator,
you can get an idea of this hoe's size by comparing it to that man walking by

The bucket is held on by the hooks on the front and then clips
to the quick hitch on the back

No additional attachments are provided with this model but a cool thing is
is that all the attachments from the R904C wheeled excavator will work on
this model as well; here's a shot with the tilt bucket from the R904C
wheeled excavator attached

And here's a photo of the clam shell grab from the R904C wheeled excavator

This is quite an awesome nicely detailed model from Norscot and I hope
we see a lot more Liebherr models from them in the near future
