Took zerk pictures on the V417. Top of cylinders:
Bottom, the zerks are on the other side:
Can be reached through this opening:
The back arrow points to the zerk for the leveling cylinder, the one for the lift cylinder is behind the hose where the front arrow is pointing:
Finish mower for Toolcat
Improved the view of anything in front up close on the left.
Before, the turn signal and headlight block the up close view from the seat:
After, can even see the back of the finish mower:
Made a bracket for the mirror from the scrap pile. It was a leg cut off of a...
I did use a T800 some, but have no experience with a T770, but the Toolcat is rugged enough to do what it is designed to do, very reliable and a high quality build with heavy duty parts.
About the same as the V518, for getting to the grease zerks.
Driveway Straightening
Moved some dirt and gravel with the bucket on the V417.
Looking north:
Looking south:
14 tons of crushed concrete:
Where the gravel was (only 2 inches deep):
The V417 is narrower, doesn't have as good of a tire tread pattern, but has a door and air conditioning.
The lower 75 horsepower rating was not noticeable since the machine did everything that I tried to do with it.
The big advantage was the SSQA.
The V518, used bought 9-23-2009:
The...
Since no one commented on the Fake Wheelie, here is the real picture:
I was compressing the cedar trees that I dropped on the brush pile. Right after I jumped out to take the picture I realized I might not be able to climb back in. :oops:
Took the picture, opened the door and was able to...
V518 plus V624, V632 and V723. Don't know if the V923 is the same size.
I think you would be happier with a V519.
Yes, but a PTO tiller would have to have a hydraulic motor added.
I can run the brush hog either direction on the V417. The blades are sharp on both sides. I do one way for grass...
If you are asking about the V518, ones made for the Bobcat telehandler style attach pictured above. The attachments for it are not on the Website since they quit selling the V518.
What do you need?
No, just the V519.
This is the hydraulic powered V518 system:
I bought an adapter to SSQA for my grapple:
No, this live tree was probably about the heaviest thing lifted:
And the heaviest thing moved, it was settled down in the dirt and the trailer movers couldn't move it with their...
Just shoot air into the pex as you feed a string in and it will bring the string out the other (exhaust) end. Then use the string to pull a rope through to pull the pex while it is being pushed from the other end.
Or if you don't have a compressor, hold a vacuum hose on the outlet end for the...
Your V519 is a little different, but don't see the zerk you referred to:
The new V417 IPB shows zerks on the wear pads that mine does not have zerks on.
My 3 point adapter made by Washburn has extra rollback built in: Heavy Duty Skidsteer To 3 point Implement
And the Omni Transformer:
With the Omni Transformer and the landscape rake:
If you will use a front mower (the best way), get a 5610.
No overheating from the dust and debris like the 5600 does.
The 7" brush hog:
The 6' finish mower:
How far are you from Oklahoma city?

Yep, interesting.
Here is the info and some pictures, for when the ad goes away:
Brush Cutter was Ran behind a Caterpillar track machine for cutting up and down the side of a mountain. The diesel engine runs good. The cutter would be great for cleaning. I have a way to load it on your trailer.
I guess it depends on the dirt where you live.
I am relocating (straightening) a small part of our driveway that was installed in 2006 and has no problems in this area.
The small gravel is 2" thick on red clay. Removed the gravel with a box blade and toothed bucket:
I just read your fork frame thread: Pallet Fork Frame with no forks?
That homemade frame is the global euro carrier system:
You can buy attachments that will fit that frame. Measure your bucket to see which size it is.
I have a 72" but it is not a Bobcat. I liked the push linkage and it was on close out sale. Not a good seller for a skid steer.
I do mow in Float Mode:
Eighteen years ago I was clearing cedar trees with a tree shear and taking them to the burn pile on the forks.
But on the way, the wind would blow them off of the forks, so I bought a grapple.
Now I have two grapples and several sizes of forks.
44" wide Gorilla Grapple:
72" wide Monster...
Like comparing apples to different apples:
They can do the same things.
The 6' wide, 1 cubic yard bucket:
The 7' brush hog:
The 6' wide Monster Grapple:
The V417 will lift over twice the 3,000 pounds that the Toolcat will lift.
The main difference is that the V417 is unstuckable...
The new Bobcat engine, Here is info from their Website:
When Tier 4 emissions standards required every equipment manufacturer to make equipment changes, Bobcat designed a non-DPF Tier 4 solution that also delivers new features and provides more performance to customers. It reduces downtime that...
The reason I traded our F Series in on a G Series in 2017 was to get Traction Control.
I am not aware of any changes, but have not been looking at the newer ones.
A good feature of the Toolcats is no Regen that I read so many complaints about.
A manual pivot like what is on a 3 point rear blade could be inserted between their quick attach plate and the box blade.
This type of a pivot installed vertically:
I have a skid steer style 6 foot wide land plane on the front of the 5 foot wide Toolcat. Works gooder-un in the clay.
Have not used it much on gravel yet, but I need to.
I am surprised that it is working with the outside antenna so low. The tower it is pointed at is over the high spot south of the horse barn, it is 8 miles away and 225 feet tall.
The red line shows the way the antenna is pointing:
The new version works the same now if the picture or the thumnail is clicked.
You can make the picture display smaller in the post. See post # 4 above.
I know the rod end is lower, but it sure looks bent.
I added a straight red line parallel to the cylinder:
A good hydraulic shop can straighten it (y) .
And if you leave the picture in the post by disregarding the thumbnails at the bottom, the size can be changed by clicking it, put the arrow on a corner and pull it down to the size you want:
There is also a resize icon that I have not tried:
I have not needed to put a SSQA plate on the back of the 6' yet. It works very well on the three point adapter.
Dozer mode:
And can be digging in float mode in reverse:
There are no more huge pictures displayed, they are resized to no more than 2500 pixels wide or high.

Have not operated a wheel loader, I am judging their performance from watching videos and no pivoting front axle, same as my dirt digging compact telehandler. So it is not tippy like a tractor.
I did a direct comparison with a Bobcat T300 using my toothed bucket and mine dug hard clay and...
Based on what my 11,000 pound compact telehandler can do moving dirt with the 1 cubic yard 6 foot wide bucket, I would say yes the wheel loader could do it.
Very happy with the performance of the system.
Moved the panel antenna from it's temporary location up higher to it's permanent location on the truss:
Moved the booster from setting on a box on the bench up onto the pegboard:
Moving the pointer over the contents of "Location" brings up an underline. When clicked Google Maps opens in a new tab displaying the location.
This may just be a new feature on Chrome?
No they can't flip. I made the bump stops about 36 years ago to stop the equalizer from going high enough to let the shackle flip.
They are mounted to the frame above the spring eye, like the red blocks that I drew:
I don't own the trailer now, so found this picture on the www.
Update: I ordered this: Home MultiRoom Cell Phone Signal Booster | weBoost
Installed it in the shop with the outside antenna temporarily next to the window that I could get signal through inside with the flip phone close to it.
Works great, went from no signal in the center of the shop, to...
Yep, that is one reason I wanted the counterbalanced model. It can getup close to shelves that the long front leg models can't.
Another reason is the front legs on this one are not in the way when it is a sit down workbench:
Not Haala, but mine is the strongest that I have seen: Dual Hitch Receiver Mount for SSQA
Here is the single from: Eterra Trailer Hitch Attachment for Skid Steers | Skid Steer Solutions
Over the years I have had some crank up lifts, but this is the first counter balanced model.
It doesn't have the Forks like this:
It has the Boom Option:
They also have a Load Platform Option:
So I added a piece of 3/4 inch plywood to the top of the boom to make my combination load...
