I'm back in operation, --loose connection at solenoid (daylight / manual / advice helpful) thanks much for those 3AM replies... and the help was much appreciated, I was really worried about 'worst case' being a Bobcat and all.. $$$$$$ Thx, again

yes, I checked the relays and fuses too.

Friday night (of course) The 864 died, after sputtering a couple times. no fuel to injectors, but plenty in filter. (both sides in and out) pumping bulb works fine. Solenoid?, saftey cut out switch? Any way to override? No alarms, no codes BICS (not the 'deluxe' inst panel). no overheat...

"I have not yet seen anywhere where it says to put 15/40 in the drive motor carrier. " both my 864 and T200 manuals (service and Operator) say 10/40 in Drive Motor Carrier and Rollers and Idlers, Am I missing a TSB ??

"Jump into your profile ..." Thx, I been wondering, but... when I did that it would not offer a cursor in the 'mesage reply' box (so, no typing allowed) ;o( (I'm using current firefox, don't tell me I HAVE to use MS explorer !!!) *** regarding leveling w/4:1, my owners manual for my Case...

Where can I rent one of these (boom/hoe)? I need to dig out an oil tank in crawlspace under a house, This would be 'perfect', as my excavator is too tall at boom knuckle. Of course I only need it for one job. (SSS didn't want to disclose any 'rental' options (I'm in SW WA state)) need by 7 Dec...

Forget the dozer blade, unless you do swales in very tight space, then consider 'tilt-tach' I have a 6way, but the skid (CTL in my case) is too short to do a good (fast) job grading with a blade, ez to get whoop-dee-doos, even with metering 'feet' on back of blade. elect controls are much too...

""Just make sure 90cc of 90w sythetic oil.""/ Drive Motor Carrier???/ My 864 says 10w-40 I was just checking in to see If I could use 15w40 Amsoil in this application (since I buy it by the barrel...) I've got to baby this 864, only 600hrs with 50% stationary from Stumpgrinding and chipping. One...

Re: I just finished building my 72" brush/tree mower >>>>> sorry we missed, this site has some shortcomings (format and IM...) jd(underscore)boldt(at)yahoo(dot)com I am on the hunt for a flail, as rotatry leaves chunks and competition uses TimberAX ($20K) I need some help on 864 HF also

I haven't been able to rouse mr coyote, but we both live in WA, so it would be handy to have PM...(formatting is also very poor here...) jimi, might want to look over here for attachment ideas (like this tree shear) http://www.skidsteersolutions.com/Skid_Steer_Tree_Shears_s/14.htm I would like...

I'm pretty new also but... after some research and owning a Case Crawler (and buying used 864) I find out there are significant issues with under carriages, especially Bobcat, as they went into this arena from Wheeled Platform. basically BC has redesigned the lower rollers and idlers + drive...

I like the trailer AND the truck... I'm currently pulling a 24000#GVW EAGER BEAVER w/17'deck and beavertail behind my '93 Cummins 1 Ton 4x4 flatbed dually. My terrain is very steep, and the ole girl (truck) is not happy. I have to cruise around the local area in low range, and only use high on...

rs- get a hold of me if you are still around, I'm WA based (West Columbia Gorge) and have similar feelings for our "elected?" gov. I do a bit of fabricating, put a bush-hog on my Case 350 Trackloader ~ 6 yrs ago, and now also have a Bobcat 864 w/ BrushCat + Stumpgrinder, chipper, grapple, 6...
