need some help on a newly acquired 753

[ladrhog]

serial number is 511350259 I had a couple of posts earlier before I purchased it. I did get it to run by unhooking everything but the starter and held the fuel injector lever open. So long story short is it needs to have the wiring harness repaired as it has a few burnt wires. It looks like the alternator came apart while it was running. I can't confirm this but there was a coup[le of the long screws that hold the alternator together buried in the goo under the engine. I have downloaded a service manual that has a wiring diagram for a lot of different serial numbers. I am a Bobcat newbie. Here are my first set of questions. 1.How can i tell which model I have.? some say boss with high flow boss with out high flow other just serial numbers for 753h, 753g Here is what the controls look like 2. it looks like my switches on the control handle do not work. Can someone tell me what they do and if they can be rebuilt? There is a switch on the front and a trigger switch on each handle. Here is what the harness looks like. I think I can repair it. 3. What are these microswitches for? 4. video of the first start in 8 years.

It looks like a 753c from looking at the video. If you can read the serial number you can call the Bobcat company and they will give you the info your looking for. You will find the phone number online. Congrats on getting it started

Thanks You called Bobcat and it is a c model. Found the right wiring diagram. Got the wiring all sorted out. Now just waiting on an alternator and belt. Next issue is the chain case is full of oil.
