[QUOTE="rhittle, post: 79843, member: 11427"] I have had skid steers and compact loaders for nearly 35 years. I've had most brands but the primary units I have owned has been Bobcat. I'm retired from my landscape company now but I bought a T250 Bobcat to piddle around with. I'm having a problem that when I drop the bucket and start to dig or scrape, I get a hop or a chatter and it gets more violent the faster I push. I have had a small amount of this problem with other units but not enough to be a major problem. If I start scraping or digging very slow with a low idle, and continue very slow I can eliminate the hop. I also have a T200 that I have no problem with. Has anyone any idea what causes this or how to remedy the hop? I know this is the skid steer forum instead of compact loaders but about 30 years ago I had this same problem with a 752 and have had minor hopping with some or our other wheel loaders. [/QUOTE]
