I would control motor speed like any other motor, by using a OC reversible motor spool valve with a throw handle. Unless I'm missing something, that's essentially all a swash plate does but in a closed loop system, If I'm wrong please tell me. From looking at the service photos of the motor, the...

Alright, I'll break this into smaller questions. Without the piston pump supplying essentially pilot pressure to the motor swash plate, can it be locked in to either a half throttle or full throttle configuration so the gear pump output flow alone can be used to control the motor RPM?

I have a pair of Bobcat 963 skid steer drive motors that need to go onto a track crawler project. Since there is not piston pump or electronics, is there a way to run them off of a normal hydraulic pump? I have a motor spool valve capable of 25GPM and a 26GPM/3000psi gear pump . I know the swash...

963 drive motors

The problem is BICS shows a traction lock short to ground. I have replaced the solenoid on the left hand side of an aluminum square block with 2 solenoid a on the bottom of it. I'm no electrician and can't effectively figure it out. A no-fault of bobcat kept blowing BICS fuses and since resolved...

After using a 1947 Ford 8n with zero electronics and cussing at my high tech Bobcat as I went by it, broke down as usual, I'm ready to remove the hydraulic pump and every single complicating valve on this thing. My question is, if I remove the traction brake sets completely from within the chain...

The weather finally let up for a quick bit of monkeying under the hood. With everything plugged in, I get 6 flashes on BICS traction lock, all others steady green. When I unplug the 5-prong relaythat feeds it, I get a 1-flash change. With the relay plugged in and the solenoids unplugged, I still...

BICS gave 6 flashes for the traction lock (lift and tilt is solid green and operating) so I installed a new solenoid from bobcat on the aluminum splitter block, left side, straight under the seat. No luck =( Still 6 flashes, maintenance book shows short to ground. There are 2 solenoids on this...

Thank you OM for your patience. Based on your logical positiveness I went at the very tightly braided wiring harness at the cab pivot point with a wire snipped and got 1/84th of an inch at a time. it turns out the BICS fuse orange wire had actually been used to jump another Orange wire which...

If the traction lock solenoid is similar to a cummins shutdown solenoid. Couldn't I just find it, pull the plunger up with a hook spring and keep BICS offline? I'd be fine with wiring the park brake straight to the lock solenoid if not having BICS freaks people out that much.

Thank you OM. I guess my trouble is the fuse keeps blowing, so the orange wire isn't powered. When I ohmd the orange wire all the way from the main BICS plug to the fuse 0.04 showed me the line had no short. This is my first time diagnosing electrical so please excuse my ignorance on it. When I...
