Its a m600 but it has a replacement engine that is only 2 cylinders. however there are some modifications- a cage, front and rear lights, front and rear flashing amber lights, and a plastic enclosure for the cage. It runs good just needs some carburetor adjustments. There are chains on the tires...

My hydraulics werent working, i discovered that some water had frozen in the filter, blocking the flow. Until i drain it in spring, is there something i can add to the fluid to keep it from freezing? I was thinking dry gas or antifreze. Also, is it possible that i got air in the lines, because i...

Ok, then in that case, i have plenty of fluid, there is about 15 gallons in it, so this isnt the problem.

These plugs are toward the bottom of the case, correct?

I was fooling around with the bobcat today and noticed that the hydraulic was not as high as i thought it was, it is a little below the tubes under the seat. I had added some fluid a few days ago. So now there is MORE fluid in the machine than there was when the hydraulics WERE working...Why? is...

I should have a picture of it on here either tonight or tomorrow. Until then i want to clean the filter (until i get a new one). Is this located under the foot panels on the front of the machine?

looking to buy, working, for 600 or 610 series

Is anyone interested in buying a working hydraulic pump/power unit, like for a dump truck etc? $100 + $70 shipping

Well there is one that has a "bolt" under the rubber cap that i unscrewed. This one is in the middle, the two on the ends are just rubber caps.

I checked what i believe to be the relief, (this is the rubber cap with the springed plate under it, correct?). If that is correct, it looks ok to me, it is clean and springing all the way. What can i do next? Like i said, a few days ago i could lift the bucket about a foot off the ground, now i...

If there is something stuck in the valve how do i get it out?

Im using "tractor fluid" from advance auto, its hydraulic fluid for machines.

I just put some fluid in. I have no aux hydraulics, how do i tell if there is something stuck in the relief, and where is it, im kind of a newbie, actually 18 year old playing a 35 year olds game. It is also cold here and it stores outside, could the fluid be so slushy that its not giving pressure?

I have an old m600 bobcat and the hydraulics are not working. I let it run for about a half an hour th try to warm up the fluid, but still nothing. Sometimes the cylinders will move a little tiny bit, but thats it. It has a fully mechanical hydraulic pump, no electrical. A few days ago, it was...

On the one side of the bobcat is a dome shaped hydraulic breather cap, on the other side is a square headed bolt. Which side does the hydraulic fluid go in? and how much? (these are located behind the seat on the top of the side walls)
