I have a S300 Bobcat with a chatter/jerking in what appears to be the hydro drive motors. Both sides do it, but the LH side seems a little worse. Seems to work somewhat better at higher RPM's. Also, this is a 2 speed machine and it does not drive very well at all in the hi side. Do these machine tend to have problems with hydro motors or is there something else I should be looking at first? If I am going to work on the hydro system I need to do some pressure washing under the cage.....is there any way to get the belly to drain? I started to wash it out and the belly just fills up with water until it runs out the drive motor access opening. I tried to get the washer wand down into the belly to blow open any drain holes, but had no luck. Looking under the machine I don't see any clean-out plate/holes either. Thanks!
