Toolcat Conversion

[mtnxtreme]

Does anyone make a conversion from manual bob tach to power, and a Lo flow to Hi Flow conversion kits for Toolcat ?

Yes, it is called "trade in" for one that has it.

What Series is your Toolcat?

Xfaxman called it, I looked at updating my old Toolcat and was by far better off trading it in, dollar wise I got more than I paid for the old gal and with discounts and no interest loan ended way further ahead, plus depending on the model you have they are a way better built unit, just going over 120 hours now and enjoying the extra features

mtnxtreme what are you needing high flow for, I used a 2005 Toolcat with standard flow for years with a snowblower rated high flow, it worked for me on the acreage and gravel roads, I admit the snow was not thrown as far but it did the job, as for bob tacK it was manual, yes there was times it was a pain getting in and out but now I have power, great changing forks, buckets but any attachment that needs hydraulics not a great requirement,

I wanted the high flow for a brush mower, I heard they run more efficient. As well as other attachments, I think it would be nice to have the option ?

high flow is a great option, have it on my new machine but would be crazy to add it to a old machine

here is my Toolcat with the 90 inch high dump bucket, its great for snow and will dump way higher than the standard bucket due to the pivot at the cutting edge, once the tilt on the machine is set when using simply drive into the snow, lift the arm and dump bucket with auxiliary control, enjoy the pics would anyone know what brand of bucket this is? purchased several years ago the seller said it was one for a forklift due to the pockets inside the bucket but had no idea how to use it, for me it was a steal at 500 dollars

An image search found this from High Rock Attachments: 90" High Dump Bucket Roll Out Buckets for skid steer loaders

interesting, I had searched high lift bucket on Google with no success, good to know who made it and where I can get parts, figured it was around the 600 pounds surprised its over 1000, it is solid and not the typical snow bucket, its the go to in winter it moves a lot of snow

for me the tool is what is in the background of photo 1. snow blower. I will never push or pull snow again. the blower makes snow removal a walk in the park. no matter how deep you can blow your way through. and with that nice heated cab you can do it in a t-shirt. lol. I love mine. you can't make me go back.
