[QUOTE="Iowa Dave, post: 32700, member: 2195"] Over 20,000 hrs with Bobcats of all sizes, and I have never "broken" anything of consequence. Wore a lot of stuff out, like pins (grease them ALL THE TIME and they won't wear out),and every mechanical thing you can imagine--but you will not "break" anything. The machine will do a nosedive if you try to pick up too much, not break. I suppose without good common sense you could theoretically spring the bucket or arms, but it ain't gonna happen. Go slow, use your head, carry loads low, and don't get too sure of yourself too soon and you will be fine. Owner-operators never BREAK stuff anyway. Employees working in a system where they are not held accountable break stuff and not always by accident. The machine will show you its limits before you crack it up. Bobcats, with some common sense, are indestructible. Be safe and enjoy! [/QUOTE]
