    Shuttle shift CT335

    I still am not understanding this shuttle shift... Do you need to come to a stop before shifting from forward to reverse? I do come to a stop but have read that it's not necessary? True or not?

    Bobcat values

    Well I guess this just sucks but lets face it we all took a gamble and lost. I know our bobcats are kioti's in reality but... We have lost a lot of resale value. I'd like to know what most of you owners are thinking? Are you going to try and dump your tractor or keep it? Rick what is your...

    1953 Jubilee

    Hello all... I am in need of some assistance with my NAA 53 Jubilee. I recently replaced my PTO with the 1 3/8 " shaft and placed a PTO overide clutch on it. Now when I turn on my PTO with a brush hog, it makes a "chattering" noise before it actually catches. Is this normal? Sounds like...

    CT335

    Was wondering if anyone else has noticed the hydraulic level not reading on the dip stick...? I can pull the dip stick and it won't show a level, put it back in and pull it out and it's at the full mark?? What's the deal???

    CT335 question

    Has anyone had an issue with the front axle pivot not taking grease? I greased mine, and it was difficult for it to take grease. Then after I did this, a few very hot days later, I noticed that there was a small puddle of what appeared to be oil just under the front axle pivot. I looked, and...

    Cold start

    Hello all...I am just fishing here to find some opinions. I have a 2010 Bobcat CT335, love it by the way, and its basically a Kioti. Are the DK's hard starting and are the engines loud...? As in do they rap until they get warm? I have tons of power but boy is that baby loud when u first start...

    Bush Hog finish mower.....???

    Ok I bought a used 60" bush hog rear discharge finish mower. I am beside myself. The guy I bought it from was a mechanic and the things I found wrong are bewildering. I used the mower at the begining of this year, all was fine. I noticed oil pouring out of the counter shaft seal...dude had...

    CT335 SST after 10 hrs

    I put 10 hrs on my CT335 SST and so far everything is going great (as one would expect with only 10 hrs). I have to say I am impressed with how well the tractor runs and performs. It has a ton of power and seems like it will do everything I will ever need. From what others have stated before...

    Break In

    Wow a hundred hrs? That is some time...I know on my old tractor I tried to take it easy, never even ran it at PTO speed for at least 50hrs, but I was thinking that these new machines with the tighter tolerances should be broke in in the first 15 minutes of run time. I know that the old...

    Break In

    Just throwing this out there...what has everyone been doing to break in their new tractor? I know there are a few different opinions, run it like you stole it - OR- vary the rpms, put it through a few heat cycles and enjoy? I looked in the manual but I didnt find anything on it, maybe I over...

    Bobcat or Not....

    Well I am thinking of trading in my Mahindra on a Bobcat. I really like my Mahindra, but I am thinking its time to get a bigger tractor. I currently have the 2615 gear and use it for just about everything. It has done everything I asked of it, but now I want to start plowing some of my fields...

    Fuel Filter

    Hey fellas, would a bad fuel filter cause bluish/grey smoke on start up? Or is that a sign of something else? I tried a search but it didnt get me very far. I think it is a bad filter, had it in since new and I now have over 330 hrs.... Thanks in advance, oh and the tractor runs good, no...

    3-Point Hitch  lift arms on backwards

    I cant believe that the problem I have had for three years went un-noticed! I have put two sets of turnbuckles(check Chains) on my 2615. I finally broke down and bought another set, due to the swaying with check chains. I put the new turnbuckles on and found that they would not tighten up...
