[QUOTE="adam.schaible, post: 135635, member: 23208"] Hello, This is my first Bobcat, so it's possible that this is normal, but I wanted to get opinions. After starting my Bobcat, it takes a few moments to be able to drive and/or use the hydraulics. Here's my startup sequence: [LIST=1] [*]Turn key on, wait until glow plug warms up [*]Start machine (starts just fine) [*]Pull the lap bar down [*]Push the green button [/LIST] At this point, my understanding is that the machine should operate correctly. What happens is the bucket won't lift/tilt, and if I push the drive sticks, it seems stuck. If I wait a little while and start nudging it forward and backward, then it eventually starts driving and the bucket starts working. Is this expected? If not, any idea where I should look to resolve this issue? [/QUOTE]
