Case 85xt User Questions

[limelightsystems]

Hello All, I just picked up an 02 85xt skid steer and it did not come with a user manual. I am very familiar with the 1845c however this one has controls I do not know the functions of. There are several buttons on the joystick controls as well as 2 switches under a cover behind the right joystick. I figurd out that one joystick button is the horn and another is a control arm lockout but that is it. Can anyone fill me in on this or share a copy of the user manual with me? There is also a round connector above the aux hydrolyics that has a bunch of pins sticking out that I have no idea what its function is either. I assume that maybe it is for attachments and has something to do with the extra buttons??? Finally there is something wrong with the electronics as the hour meter, fuel gauge, and everything els dont seem to work. The battery and temp lights stay on as if the machine was not running with the ignition in the on position. I am certain it is probably impossible to diagnose this with just that information however is there something simple I can look for?

Hello, I own a 2000 90XT. The left joystick has a parking brake button which is red, a twospeed button which is black and mine has a flat toggle type switch for the high flow hydraulics. I cannot remember if the 85 has twospeed or not. I replaced my right control lever with an aftermarket joystick because I needed more functions to control solenoid valves for tree digging equipment. I do have an owners manual that explains all the control function and instrument panel functions. I would start with the key switch first to see if you are sending power to the gauges that are not powering up.
