Your welcome. There should be a fuse and possibly a relay that operates the lights.

Cleaning my Bobcat T300
Published (2009-11-26 10:03:00)
Now that is an excellent idea!! I was thinking of how I could do it this morning .. Dig a hole, line it with plastic, fill it with wood chips (or sawdust), pull the bobcat over the hole, and go to town. The only problem is .... I realized in the process of thinking of exactly how to do it that I don't have water out there to run the pressure washer!! DOH!! I could bring this to my house in my subdivision but I hear neighbors complaining...

CAT 262B w/ VTS
Published (2009-12-01 11:02:00)
I have a 440 Case which has one of the highest torque ratings so I can afford to give up a little power. It is mainly sandy soils here but have been in clay stuff as well. I would never go back to a factory CTL/MTL type machine. I was just wondering what someone from the shop thought.

I would hope that would not be normal. Sounds like there is some type of default setting problem. Did you demo this machine before you bought it? Or perhaps go back to the dealer and hop in another and see if it does the same thing.

Which machine to buy
Published (2009-11-30 21:29:00)
Yes Titan equipment. I may have made a deal on a 445. I was surprized at the price not nearly as high as I though it would be. Also dealing on a 84" Erskin snowplower and a bolt on grapple for the bucket. I should know in a day or two. I really liked the Case over the New Holland machines. Airedale

Slow cranking Thomas
Published (2009-12-03 07:57:00)
Sounds like you have a hydraulic load on it. does it creep when sitting? may need an adjustment. The kubota should crank right over if it is not turning the pump under load.

Yes, it sounds like a hydraulic valve spool is not returning to neutral. The (right) T-bar linkage for the lift and tilt functions is easy to see if it is hanging up, so most likely it is the auxiliary hydraulic valve spool, which is activated by a pedal. I'd suggest lubricating the pedal and linkage, which is probably sticking.

Were you getting leaks from the control valve? I will be doing the same in my 763 which has a leak from its control valve. Generally I don't worry too much about getting dirt in as I am going to disassemble totally and rebuild. I clean parts with diesel and/or degrease with lye first. Rusted parts get submerged in a solution of lye, washing soda or baking soda and water and connected to a battery...

Slow cranking Thomas We have a Thomas 2200 with under 3000 hrs- Kabota motor. For a long time it's been cranking really slow. After a few tries it manages to fire off. Put in a new battery, new battery cables, clean all connections and it still does the same thing. Starter going out? Ideas?...

To call a Cat MTL low hours in my book would be like 500 or less. Beyond that it's a crap shoot depending on how it was used and maintained. Hard to see, but looks to be standard flow which would not run a mulching head. Depending how many hours are on the undercarriage, you could possibly spend another 15k on it in the near future. That said, $15 sounds like they're at least realistic about ...

The debris could be in the other 4-1 cylinder, lines, couplers and auxillary valve under the floorplate. After that all of the return oil from the auxillary valve goes to the filter and back to the tank. I would checheck all of these items, drain the tank and check for debris down in the front bottom corner of the tank and replace the filter. Cut the filter apart and you will most likely find ...

I would say the 465 but I'm a fan of the Case skids. I have an 09 Case 440S3 which also has the higher horsepower like a 465. The 440 has two speed and ride control(which will help the 'bucking' action). The new Series 3 has a much improved cab. I also run the Loegering VTS track system and it does a lot for the skid's performance. Maybe try out the 465 and them look at the 440(radial ...

Sounds great, nice to hear a positive report. Do you have any pics of the log haul? Perhaps someday I will own one of those. I just entered the skidsteer world with the 277B.

Most newer machines are equipped with a foot throttle as well as a hand throttle. My Cat does, and I run as I would a truck, using only the amount of throttle necessary to get the job done. I use the hand throttle only when running a hydraulic attachment, and the use the rpm that gets the job done.
