Compact Track Loader

Posts Tagged ‘hydraulic’

We have a bobcat skid steer loader on the farm that was built in the mid 70′s. Works pretty good for its age and we don’t push it hard but it has it’s share of leaks mostly at the seals. We were told by a mechanic that works on them that if you didn’t have any hydraulic oil on hand you could put W30 motor oil in the reservior to bring it back up to proper level. Thats been a couple of years ago and now motor oil of any viscosity is being put into it. Will this damage any of the system; seals ,pump,valves etc.? The whole system will take about 13 gals. and I’m concerned that when I change the filter and top off with oil its just going to be a waste of oil and filter unless the whole system is flushed out.

The new skid steer JAKE BUCKET has a unique hydraulic tilt package, tied to a mechanically cabled arm that opens at the rate of your tilt. This allows for great flow control during concrete discharge. We’ve included a manual gate lever, to give even greater control on discharge speed and shutdown.
