Bobcat does not make these 2 big bolts anymore. Does anyone know of where I can find them Thanks mike

I went and test drove a D series today to see how it compares to my B model. One thing I didnt like, I can barely reach the pedals comfortably and I am not that short. I don't know how anyone shorter than me could even drive it. MIke

Hi guys I am very new to tractors. I have been renting a 5093 jd for my snow removal company this year to find out which direction I want to go before purchasing. I do about 250 small drives and streets in condo associations. I have a few questions about tractor transmissions. I am having...

I have been on the fence for 4 months and winter is coming soon. I have a toolcat now (56 hp) 5500 lbs with ballast and blade) which I do allot of condo drives with. I have too much work for it now so I have been considering stepping up to something bigger. I haven't pulled the trigger on a...

Anyone know of any bobcat incentives coming up? I was quoted 47k canadian plus taxes. Seems high to me. Hi flow road package no attatchments

Has anyone used both, hopefully someone has tried both? I have a toolcat now and I am debating hard upon buying another one and hiring another operator. Or buying a JD 6000 series tractor to handle the extra workload I have taken on. I have a bunch of condos which have 200 plus small...

I approached 2 massey dealerships over 2 weeks ago to purchase a 5400 series tractor. I still have not recieved a quote from either of them. How long should it take? Sure hope their service department isn't as slow. Thanks Mike

Hi guys. I have been having a little bit of troubles with traction in the snow. I have a plow and a blower and both are around 1100 lbs. I have 300 lbs in the bed now. I am going to make up some lead bars and bolt them in the back of the bed. At which weight do you think I will have...

I have a B toolcat and I see on some forums people are suggesting a Blizzard 8611 for it. The 8611 weighs 1470 lbs. I wanted to get the Horst SnowWing 3000 which weighs 1300 lbs. My dealer says no chance and the biggest blade bobcat has for it comes in 96 inches and a measly 660 lbs. Now...

I went a tire shop today to get the LT 235 75 15 in a michelin ice latitude. The most knowledgeable guy told me there is no way those tires or any other winter tire in a 15 inch is going to take that load? He said I must move in to a 16 inch and 10 ply. Anyone have any suggestions what to do...

Anyone have current pricing on a loaded D series? I am from Canada and thinking of adding another Toolcat to the fleet! Pricing is outrageous up here. Thanks Mike

I used my Erskine blower today for the first time on 50 residential driveways. All I can say is WOW and why the **** was I using a walk behind blower all these years. The Toolcat is the best thing that ever happened to my business. I was using a bobcat with bucket in storms last year and I have...

Do you guys think I need rear ballast to compensate for the 1000 lb blower? I backed on to my tilt deck trailer for the first time with the blower today and I only had a few inches of deck to spare when the thing finally tilted back into position. Thanks Mike

Is the 2 speed an option for the toolcat? It is listed as an opton in the brochere but I thought top speed was 29 KM/ hour.

Does anyone know how hard it would be to make a pull blade fro the front of a snow blower. The cylinder would drive the door down and act like a box blade to clear away snow in tight to garage doors? Pronovost makes one but the blowers are way to big - I want to apply this concept to a 60 inch...

Dealer has a Toolcat 5600 (b series) turbo demo with 90 hours on it and wants 40k canadian = 34k US. It has Cab/AC- high flow- road package. He wants 51k for the c series. Thanks guys

I am looking at buying a Kubota b3030 or JD 2520 for my snow removal company. We do a lot of small double drives in condo communities. I have been doing reseach for months now and cannot pull the trigger. Anyway, I want to know if anyone is usung the Kubota front mount blower for...

JD specs a 47 inch blower for the 2520 but it's 51 inches wide with standard tires. Not very productive if the machine is wider then the blower? Does anyone know how big a curtis blade this unit will handle on the FEL? Thanks Mike

I want to use a 2520 or 3320 for residential snow removal! Does anyone know how good you would be able to scrape a driveway with a curtis plow? I want to attach one to a FEL but does the trip spring "trip" when you hit that ridge caused by a vehicle driving in and out a few times or will it...

I have a 72 inch snow thrower that is rated for 540 RPM. I want to run it with a Hydro motor but I don't know exactly what I need for a motor, pump, engine. The engine and pump will be running nothing else! I am going to put the engine in the bed of a truck. Does anyone know what HYD GPM and...

Hi I have never operated a compact tractor before but after test driving one today I thought it might be my saviour. I am in the snow business and have a lot of accounts we do with walk behind blowers. We do 6 sets of condos units that average 25 double drives and 150 small residential...
