  • Operating a Bobcat Skid Steer isn’t as difficult as you may think. The key is getting comfortable with the basics before attempting more of the advanced techniques.

    Still have my dads bobcat he purchased new in the early 90s. The only thing that’s the same is the colors lol. Impressive how far technology has come, but that machine has paid for itself 10 times over. It’s so valuable. We have had hydraulic leaks, had motor replaced, teeth sharpened and replaced but with the new motor it should last us another 10-20 years. I couldn’t imagine not having one now that I do have one. The next must is a mini excavator.

    Today 14 feb 2018 i was watching bobcat the animal and suddenly i saw this video, i didnt think they call this machine a bobcat, i liked the way that the sir explained how to drive it with few minutes, its a valuable lesson to drive unusual vehicle within couple minutes, thank u.

      As I know sir, bobcat is a company name, and this equipment is called skidsteerloader/skidloader. I'm one operator of this machine untill now. I didn't Operate this new one crosswise joystick, I'd Operate the old model which is pedals for bucket and boom, travel for lever joystick.
