I am also looking at buying a tiller and was set on a bobcat 76" one until going to the statefair here in MN and seen a after market one that is 78" and has dual hyd. motors, and is also high flow. The bobcat brand does not offer high flow or dual motors. So I'm wondering if all this is needed...

You have to also remember the cost of fuel for the skidloader and truck to haul the skidloader. If you take that cost out of the $100 dollars your now losing money. Around here there is plenty of work out there so why work for nothing.

I have to agree with dirthog for a $100 dollars what is the point of doing the work and pay for fuel which here fuel is $4.29 a gallon so by the time you take that cost out of $100 you go home in the red zone. That doesnt make alot of sense to me.

Hi I have an bradco backhoe now for about 10 years mounted on a 773. Backhoe has worked great everytime I used it. It doesnt get used alot but sure is handy when I need it in the construction buisness. I bought it new and no problem with oil that was in it.

Thanks for the information, I drained it all and filled with new figured it was getting time.

Question on a 2001 773 Bobcat. Where the oil filter is on the engine, there is a rubber plug below that. If the plug is removed what kind of fluid is suppose to come out of that. It's not oil that came out, is it antifreeze? Thank you.

I talked to my bobcat dealer today and asked if the new machine I have on order (s750) would have this tier 4 motor in it and he said he was just leaving the bobcat plant from a show they had there and for the 2011 machines they will not be the tier 4 and will not need the urea in it. To me that...

Ok, so I have a question about this urethia, do you have to add it to the tier 4 bobcats only, or is it to all the new bobcat skidloaders?? I have on order a s 750 that was suppose to be here in january, but still not here and the motor in it is a tier 3 so I am wondering if I am going to be...

Hey Thanks alot for all the help, one more question what is the best hyd. fluid to use bobcat brand or is there something just as good or better for a better price?? Thanks again!

I have another question, In the manual it say the hyd. res. holds 4.8 gallon and the hyd. system holds 8.5 gallons so is it a total of 14 gallons or so or is it just a total of 8.5 gallons?? Any help would be great.

I was afraid you would say there was no actual drain, but I think when it warms up here in MN I will tackle this task.

Thanks for the info I was also thinking of the chaincase also, Maybe I will just plan on a complete fluid change, Is there any easy way to drain the hyd fluid though??

Hi I just read a post about draining hyd. fluid, So my question is I have a 2001 773 500k with 750 hrs. on it should I be thinking of changing the whole hyd. fluid along with the main filter int the back of the machine and the 2 under the cab, or should I not even worry about the fluid and just...

I have an 2001 773 500k that has power bobtach so it was available since then.
