    SB200 & 753

    I figured it out. I gave the bypass valve on the blower another turn and it works much better.

    SB200 & 753

    Thanks for the reply. Mine is a G series loader. I cannot say that the blower has dropped off, since I just bought the blower this fall. It does blow good, by my terms, but I just think it should be working the engine harder than it does. The engine does not work any harder during a good hard...

    SB200 & 753

    I have a question regarding snow blowers. I have a 66" blower on my 2001 753. I bought the blower new and is sized to match the machine with a 5.5 hydraulic motor. The engine never seems to work any harder while taking a full cut of deep snow versus not blowing any snow. Is this normal or is...

    NEED HELP - advice?

    I would guess it was the head gasket. You more than likely missed it when you tore it down. This happened to me with my old jet boat with a 360 V8. Same problem. Turns out it WAS the head gasket, I just never seen it when I tore it down. Had the heads checked and everything. Put new head gaskets...

    Snow bucket size?

    I have a 2002 753 Bobcat that I will be adding a snow blower and a snow bucket. What size snow bucket have you been using? I realize this all depends upon wet heavy snow or dry snow. I would like to go with an 8' bucket, but I think this will be too much bucket for that machine. My guess is a 7'...

    Float Position?

    Lower the lift arms all the way down, and then push forward quickly and firmly on the foot pedal. You should feel the detent.

    new price for bobcat s185 or similar

    I just received a quote of $31,000 for a 2010 S185 with SJC option, cab and heat, deluxe instrumentation, and 2 speed option. Without the options, it would run me closer to around $25K

    Snow Blower on 753

    Thanks I picked one up today and got it installed. I do have another question, I have seen these on other Bobcats and also seen it in the installation instructions that came with my attachment kit, what is the 3rd hydraulic line for on the front of some units? It is smaller than the other two.

    Snow Blower on 753

    OK, after looking at upgrading to a new S185 with joystick control, I have decided to keep my 2002 753G, as the new ones I tested were almost deafening for cab noise as compared to my 753. Anyway, my question. My machine does not have the any electrical connection on the loader arm, only the...

    Newbie Questions

    I was kind of in the same boat as you. I was sick and tired of freezing my butt off blowing snow, so in January I purchased a 2002 753 Bobcat with 1800 Hrs. I have since rethought what I am going to do, and am now looking at upgrading to a new bigger machine with pilot controls(joystick). I am...

    743B Fluids?

    10-30 oil is too light for diesel engines. I would stick with the 15-40. I have always used Shell Rotella 15-40 for years. I recently made the switch over to Mobile Delvac 1300 15-40 as I feel it is a better oil. I have a 753 and would assume the levels to be about the same. A manual can be...

    Too firm foot controls

    Hi all, I just purchased a 2002 model 753 with 1800 Hrs on it. Is there any way to decrease the pressure required to operate the foot control pedals. I want to be able to feather the controls better. I cleaned and lubed everything up, so there is no binding anywhere. Wondering if there are...
