    Windshield Wiper Wiring

    I have a another Bobcat that uses a 3 wire wiper motor and it "parks", but the 5 wire system has me stumped. Does the "M" series wiper have 2 speeds? I just want to test that this "M" model is working before I go through the trouble of fabricating a mount. If anyone would know the connections...

    Windshield Wiper Wiring

    I have the wiper motor from a S750 or S650 "M" Series loader. I'm going to use it for another application but am trying to figure out the connections. There are yellow, black, brown, green and white wires at the connector. Can anyone give me a clue as to what goes to the switched power, constant...

    Liability Insurance

    I use my 763 skid steer about 90% of the time on my own property for general purposes. During the winter I also use it to clear snow for a few neighbors and the occasional for-cash job (also snow removal). I'm thinking that a basic liability policy might be in order especially at a location...

    G Series door on F/C series cab

    Yes, I did it in my F Series 763. You have to cut off the looped handles on the cab. The G hinges bolt right on. The major issue was the flat cab frame versus the upper curve of the door. I have a talented Heating and Air guy who has a sheet metal brake. I mocked up the "gap filler" with...

    Installed "G" Series Door on "F" Series 763

    I wanted a door on my 1999 F Series 763, but did not like the visibility offered by the F series doors. I got a great deal on a G series door (unknown model or year) that had a few scratches on the glass and went to work. First off, I cut off the 2 handles on either side of the door opening...

    763F Heater Hose Routing

    I have a 1999 763F. During the Summer I installed a factory cab heater (the style that sits on the rear cab wall by the operator's left shoulder, Red Dot Model 2020). At the time I thought that it was putting out sufficient warm air, but now that Winter is here that is not the case. I may have...

    A Word of Advice

    I have a 1999 Bobcat 763F. With the winter approaching I decided to do some maintenance on it. It is normally in a trickle charger. It started OK, but showed the symptoms of a dead battery when I went to start it later in the day. Knowing that the battery was old and I did not know the history...

    1996 Bobcat 763F Cab heater issues

    I installed the Bobcat heater that sits next to the seat in my '99 763F. Since i did not know the orifice size on the bypass/crossover, I installed a brass ball valve in the crossover area. I think that I've found the sweet spot that restricts the flow enough to send sufficient hot water to the...

    Chain Case Filters & Door Modification

    I don't know all of the models that the door fit. All I know is that it was a "G" Series door. Perhaps someone on the site can provide that information. Once I got the door all that mattered was to make it work.

    743 door, Where to find one?

    I had the same cold issue with my 763. I just posted below you about how I put a door from a newer model Bobcat on my older 763. There are photo links at the end of the writeup. You may be able to find a newer door. I looked for years for an original door and could not find one either.

    Chain Case Filters & Door Modification

    I have a 1999 763F. I want to change the Chain Case filters, but can only find one filter. It is the one shown in the upper left in the photo. Should my machine have another filter? The machine has rear auxiliary hydraulics plumbing so I don't know if that factors into the filter count. On...

    Adding cab heater to 763F

    Do you happen to know the rough diameter of the orifice? I'm sure that I could design something to restrict the flow if I have some idea of the hole size. Thanks for the info

    Adding cab heater to 763F

    I'm adding a cab heater to my 1999 763F and will be plumbing it through the waterpump bypass hose. Can anyone tell me which end of the hose is the pressure side and which end is the return side? If you could let me know what the forward (when you are looking at the engine from the back of...

    Critter nest

    A similar situation happened on my 763 last year. I started it up and acorns that had been stored in the fan housing started shooting out both sides of the machine. Luckily, no one was standing next to the fan outlets or they would have been peppered with acorn shrapnel! Had to remove the...
