Hi all, just wanted to introduce myself as a long time bobcat 720 owner. I purchased my 720 many years ago, it was my first piece of heavy equipment and the beginning of a successful excavation company which I've owned and operated for many years. The 720 was mainly used as a wheel barrow to move massive quantities of gravel and dirt in and out of many inner city job sites. It's compact size and light weight was a clear advantage in many situations. Although I've replaced the 720 with modern equipment t and my business has grown, I still have the machine which has retired on my cottage property. Because it was my first machine and although it has its issues, I cannot say goodbye. There's so much emotion and memory wrapped up in that little beast. I joined this forum in the hope that folks here might help me get it back up and running and to continue being of use on a rural property. In fact, it runs like a top and the bucket tilt and lift is fully operational but the final drives on each side are non responsive. With your help I can keep this machine and the memories it evokes, alive. Thank you.
