If you have Toolcat questions, ask them here...

It does, I was looking to see if a 3point backhoe attachment would work on it.

It would work and probably bend or break something.

It wouldn't use the PTO.

I had a tractor that weighed just over 6300 pounds and a small 3 point backhoe on it. Using the dipper stick, it would pick up the rear of the tractor and move it forward.

Bobcat doesn't recommend using their SSQA mount backhoes (? Fronthoe?) on a Toolcat.

I've got a couple of questions regarding my G series 5610. Its time for the 50 hour service and I've got the engine oil changed without issue but can't get the hydraulic filter to budge. Are they really on there that tight or is there a fitting I need to loosen to remove any pressure on the filter? I've read through the service manual and it states to remove the fill cap but that was all.
Thanks

Are you using a filter wrench?

I have read about hammering a large screwdriver through the filter and gaining enough leverage to unscrew it, but haven't done that.

If you can't get a filter wrench on it, put on tight fitting rubber work gloves and wrap the filter with a sheet of any sandpaper and get both hands on it if you can and gorilla it off. I leave the screwdriver thru the filter as a last resort because if it doesn't work (and I've seen that happen only once, and not by me), your equipment is down until you can remove the filter mount and put it in a vice.

Thanks for the advice. I can get a wrench on it but it won't budge. I guess I'll have to get a little more physical with it.
Thanks again.

I fought with mine with a wrench. I finally won. Good to have a few different types of oil filter wrenches around.

And tubing to slip over the handle to get more leverage. :thumbsup:

On the 2007 model, 50-07 equates to "FPR switch no signal"...so you're right about the Fwd/Park/Rev switch. 33-23 equates to "Main Controller (Bobcat Controller) not programmed". IIRC, the FPR switch is a simple single-pole, multiple-throw switch...so testing might not be too hard. When I had the 50-07 error on my TC, it completely took down the machine. I "fixed" it by going through the wiring harness and insulating wires that had chaffed on the chassis. Sorry...I don't have a clue about the nature of the other error.

I have a 2008 Toolcat that is blowing the FPR fuse when in Park and key on. it seems like a short. Where did you find the chaffed wires on your machine?

Does anyone know the P/N for the Dash Switch for the Rotating Beacon light on the roof?
