Haven't had the time to get back to work on the Bobcat. Quick question on the 632 is there a valve or such that releases the hydro's to allow the machine to be rolled onto a trailer? Maybe it's as simple as releasing the manual parking brake? Plans right now to get it home and pull the engine...

I've had alot of problems with this machine over the past 2 years and this past weekend was no different. A little background on the machine...it sits at our camp and is used very little. At most, I may have put on 25-30 hours on the machine in the past couple years. I replaced the water pump...

I removed the radiator a couple months ago to have the filler neck fixed, left the opening uncovered thinking I would have it out and back in within a timely manner. That did not happen and the engine was exposed to the elements for 8-10 weeks. Upon reinstalling the radiator last week, the...

Had some time to run the machine, chase leaks and turn the wrench. A couple things (1) the spark plugs are white'ish on the tips...always thought white was head gasket (I do add 5-6 oz of coolant to the radiator each time (1-2 hours)). However doing some internet research, it seems that a...

Is this the port block you are describing? I took off the seat and the hose leaking was on this block (directly under the seat). Or is the hydro pump another location? I definitely want to clean that filter, read many past post concerning. Ordered the service manual from the Bobcat dealer today...

I just picked up a 1980 632 and have a few questions. I found a leaking hose from just behind the hydro filter to the front, tore it out of the machine tonight. Plan on having a new hose made in the morning. When I removed the hose fitting from the front it drained close to a gallon and half of...

I do get bucket slap when I have the lift arm up and turning. How difficult and about the cost to replace?

The machine has up over 55XX hours, I picked it up used about 70 hours ago and have just been running it/greasing/looking for leaks/etc... Figure I got a day or so of downtime and need to change out the lubrication. Ordered the oil, fuel, inner air, and outer air filters this morning. Questions...

No, maybe 3/4 throttle.

New to skidsteers, purchased this 2001 753G a few months back. Had it out on the first job on Monday and noticed a wheel grind/noise coming from the right side (while sitting in the machine) when under tight turning. It only occurs when doing a zero turn, pushing out on the left lever and right...
