It would go like it was going to release but not come off so I took a small screwdriver handled pry bar and gently worked it free in about 5 seconds. No problem putting it back on and taking it back off. There was a little rust on the coupler from being out side over summer so I cleaned that up...

Update no pictures as I did not wrap the lines up correctly and ripped the Hydraulic lines off the screener. It is a Handy HVSB72 hydraulic screening skid steer bucket, purchased new on a Ritchie Brothers Auction, paid around 1800 canadian after fees and taxes. The bucket worked excellent...

My S650 will not release one of my attachment hydraulic lines. It is the male end that will not release. There is no pressure on the line as it is limp, so it does not seem under pressure. Have tried the attachment grapple part way open, closed and open and still no luck. I can push in on the...

Well so far the screening bucket is working great. I'm using it to take rocks and grass lumps out of a pile of top soil. It has a replaceable screening deck and currently allows 3/4 inch size particles thru it. That is ok as I can roll those into my landscaping. Can make a video if some folks...

Thank you Phil314

I just bought an ARTICULATING BRUSH CUTTER. It comes with its own controller and must be connected to a 12v source. My question is how have you folks hooked up a electrical source that is basically 2 wires that connects to a 12v battery? Is there a wiring harness that a person can pick up and...

I put chains on my wheeled 650.

Picked up a 72 inch screening bucket last week will give an update and review, once I get using it.

So no one has a screening bucket or used one?

Looking at buying a screening bucket and was looking for some advise on models to look at as well as ones to avoid. I have a 630 skid steer. I'm looking for a 6ft or 6.5ft bucket Thanks for the help

Found this on the bobcat site, it was on a pdf of the units specs, (Motor oil is not an acceptable alternative fluid). This answers the question. Will be using only Bobcat hydraulic fluid and not using the neighbour's attachments. thanks

Other than Bobcat hydraulic fluid is there any other oil that a person can use? The neighbour is running engine oil in his JD hydraulics. Want to swap attachments back and forth what will this do to my Bobcat? Thanks

Looks good Rod. Will be putting a pair of mirrors on my 650 as well. Will be mounting my 3 point hitch snowblower on the 650. Do you always run your tire chains on the front?

Where do you run your tire chains on the front or back? My unit is a s650 and I have a 8 ft blade and a 74 inch snow blower. This new to me so input is a big help. Soory I'm a little off the topic. SSG

ended up buy the bobcat 650S so far great machine. Have enjoyed doing the landscaping around the house. Very impressed with the handling ability. Will be interesting to see the job it does with snow, but that can weight. Mine you we do have a skiff on the ground today. Thanks for your in put on...
