December 19, 2012, just hauled it home, from Bobcat of OKC.



My wife driving, setting out a 5x6 round bale for the horses.

Thanks, it is a "Getter done" machine! The attachment is a Speeco Ultrafork that I added a longer bale spike on top.



I use it this way to move trailers.

That is nice. Did it steer with the bale on the spear??

Yep, even with nothing on the 3 point! The bale was probably 1500 pounds when rolled last year, don't know how much weight they lose as they dry out.

The brush hog weighs about 1800 pounds and I can carry it with nothing on the 3 point, makes the back a little light, but when mowing, half of the weight is on the nose wheel.

I love those tool cats. When you get a chance, could you give us the ocassional update on it?

When is the first service? What is involved?

Yep, great machine, will be posting updates.

Engine oil and filter at 50 hours, then at 250. Check wheel nuts, check hyd fluid level and hoses and tubelines for leaks.

Did you see the Haulin trash pictures?

Thanks for the link, pretty sweet.

No hydraulic fluid change on first service?

Nope, not at 50 hours, just change the filter at 100 hours. Fluid at 1000

How is it to get at the hydraulic filters? I've only looked at the pics in the brochure and it looks a little tight where they are? (that was on the 5600, not sure where they are one the 5610 with those top mounted rads.)

Very nice machine you have there.

Thanks, I really like it, can do a lot with it.

Here is the hydraulic filter, on the left side, plenty of room to reach up to it from underneath.

 

[Paystar]

Thanks for the pics. It just looks really tough to get to in pics. Do you grab it from underneath the machine? The air filter and battery look very easy to get too. How is the servicing.....good?

Is that how the rad sits or is it swivelled up? I've never seen a 5610 in person.

I see in your signature you also have a V417. Those look very versatile too. How do you like it?

I don't think the filter would be hard to get to, there is a lot of room around it, under there. I only have about 25 hours on it, so I am about halfway there.

The radiator sets at that angle, all I did was open the hood and take the pictures. You can see the edge of the hood in the lower right corner of the last picture.

The Bobcat V417 is an amazing machine. 75hp 4WD, 4wheel steer, 6' wide, skid steer QA, Lifts 4500 lbs 17 feet high. I sold my MF 240D 4WD when I got my first Versahandler.
Here are some pictures of mine, for those that don't know what a V417 is.

Between the Toolcat and that V417, there's not much you can't do yourself.:thumbsup:
What a setup for brushhogging.....you can reach right across ditches, lol.

Does the rad on your 5610 swing up for servicing, or is it fixed in place?


Thanks for sharing the pics.

The reason for reaching is, silt. Another foot forward and the tires disappear in the soft stuff, Like this:



Don't know about the radiator, seems like I read that it swings up. Don't know what is under it.

I like the old MF too. Thanks again. Ya, I was just wondering if the rad flipped up to give more access to the engine. Like I said, I've seen them, but never looked at one up close.

 

[WilliamBos]

Anymore pics of the MF 240?? Love that tractor.

The engine is up farther to the right side under the passenger seat. This is the access door, right below the "Bobcat".

Yep, Super gooder-un.
