    Warning About Toolcat Trailer Hitch

    Recently I purchased a Tow Hitch insert designed for a chain or tow straps. I works great on the Toolcat, but I have to suggest that caution is advised. Don't leave the extended hitch device in and try to raise the bed with the end gate down. The the open end gate will hit the hitch and cause...

    Testimony to Toolcal Utility Fork Grapple

    My project this year at my farm was to cut down eleven, one hundred foot tall trees next to my barn. I have feared one would fall and cut the barn in half. As a result, some lumber was produced. When I sealed the sale, my lumberman could not get his triaxle log truck to the wood. OK toolcat...

    Mirrors for Toolcat

    I want to purchase Side Mirrors for my C series. I like to see what is going on around me when operating equipment at all times. Is there a cab mirror available for windshield mounting as well? Can I purchase side mirrors without the headlamp kit that I see in photos?

    Toolcat 5600c Overheating Issue

    I purchased a Toolcat 5600c in June 2006. I have one nagging problem. In extreme conditions, e.g. When the temparature outside is 95 degrees, after approximately 30 minutes with the mower and AC running full throttle, the temparture gauge goes up and if I don't shut down the mower the cooling...

    My New Toolcat

    After my internal debate! I made a once in a lifetime purchase of a Toolcat 5600c with Mower/Chipper/Blower/Bucket. I had several minor issues with the electrical system corrected by my dealer and Bobcat. I must say that after owning three Kubota Tractors, two of which I still have, the...
