[QUOTE="Idoitall, post: 9756, member: 836"] In my search for a machine I have tested several machines, but haven't noticed this before and was wondering if this is normal or problematic. I understand the basic principles of the drive system, having a motor and chain system for each side and pressing the stick to add flow/pressure from the pump to the motor to move that side. And by moving forward on one side while moving in reverse on the other side will result in very quick response turns. Here's my question. While testing a 753, I noticed that while moving forward at mid speed, if I let either stick return to the center/detent position while pressing the other stick forward, the machine continues to run more or less straight (no whining or growling). Part of me says this is OK, but I still question it. So, is this normal for Bobcats, or maybe skid steers in general? I appreciate this site and your knowledge and experiences. [/QUOTE]
