They will be getting you some parts for your snowblower so it quits bypassing oil, assuming you have a high flow machine. Make sure you talk to your dealer about it if bobcat hasn't contacted you. I have an older SB240x72" with an 8.0 hyd motor and running side by side with these new ones it moves probably 30% more snow and throws it further too. I wish they wouldn't have gotten rid of the old style. These toolcats can easily handle a 24" fan when properly setup. It is still slow going though when you get 14-20" of wet snow in one crack.
I'm sure that thing comes in handy, but is it worth having over a skid steer? Is it any cheaper? It seems like it would be better for a home owner or a nursery kind of business.
Yeah not sure how the price compares but it is nice having it around the property with the big powered box in the back. Good for moving firewood around etc. I imagine it would be good at a business where lots of different people have to drive it because it is so easy to drive too.
My track asv Skid steers are for moving grading digging loading dirt rock very fast , my toolcat can do that , just not with same power speed accuracy , but toolcat shines on travel speed , snow removal , one guy plowing , passenger shovel front walk , bucket’s of salt in back bed ,power broom road cleaning , grapple to move downed tree chainsaw in bed , moving equipment around site , trailer hitch front plate organizing trailer’s , no damage to driveway, gravel lawn , get both , side jobs will pay for it !!!
Put a solid washer with a 1/16th drilled hole in it in the chut rotation motor and the shout flipper hose on only one line in each. Will slow down the oil flow and stop all the jerkiness. Works great and easy to do.
