I know you said farm use, but are the tracks getting a lot of debris in them? If so, that could be some of the issue. Is it the same track each time? If so, check the (I don't know what these are called) the metal guides inside the track that the bogey wheels run in. Maybe 1 or 2 of them are...

The cab is one of the largest ones I've been in. I've attached a picture, not the best as it was at night, but it does showcase the amount of leg room you have inside. Control wise, once you understand where everything is, I think they have done a pretty good job with the amount of tasks you...

I am loving this machine. For its size, the machine feels pretty light on its feet

Make and model are in my signature. I have a JCB 3TS-8T. It has the same strobe connector thats on all CAT skid steers and JD.

Where can I find the connector for a strobe light? My skid steer has what looks like a mini cigarette lighter style of input on the top of the cab for a strobe light. I have a mini light bar I wanted to put there in its place, but I can’t find that connector anywhere. Thoughts?

I ended up going with a 3TS-8T. So far, love the machine!

Good Afternoon Ladies and Gents, So question, why with some skid steers you get auto level on the way up, but not on the loader arm going down? Cat offers this on all their models, 259D3, 279D3, 289D3 and 299. Deere has autolevel on the way up, but none of their models have autolevel on the...

Yes, the side door is a huge bonus!

Happy Sunday everyone. I have a question, I am really looking hard at a JCB 270T. I test drove one and really liked it. Felt very powerful, hydraulics were responsive. Cab was very spacious. Overall speed was good. I didn't get a change to lift anything or do any dirt work. Is there...

I just got done dumping my CAT 259D3 for a Deere 325G. It will probably take a lot for me to consider another CAT. Hydraulics to the final drives always would whine. The machine would go into hydraulic relief a lot under load. The curl on the bucket was non-exsistent. If your loader arms...

Alright ladies and gents, I got the cages removed. I painted the cut portions to hopefully help with any future rusting and I added a rubber edge around the window more for looks than anything else. It really opens the cab up. Looking down towards the tracks is much easier than it was. All...

Those bolts you are referring to hold the window frame in place. The screen is physically part of the top of the cab.
