The Latest on my Toolcat overheating issue is as follows. My dealer sent the Bobcat Tech to my farm who informed me that running the AC at full while mowing in 94 degree temp with 100 % humidity pushed the toolcat over it's design limit. Well the following week I used my chipper for three solid hours, chipping up to 4 inch limbs. The system worked great! Last week with the Temp outside at 75 degrees and no humidity, I mowed for 1 hour with a 30 minute break. I mowed again and into the second hour, the 5600C overheated again. The coolant in the fill tank was "boiling" and it took almost and hour to cool down. Next day 70 degrees and no humdity after 1 half hour the coolant tank was hot to the touch and I had to shut down. This machine was the most expensive purchase for me ever. It is being used only on weekends and never abused. I think I have a "Lemon"! Does anyone agree? Something seriously wrong with the AC and mower!
