I can't say I recommend this because it's not right, but all my tractors I either use a ziptie to push in the seat button switch or I buy a plug in bypass for the safety switch. It's what works for me.

I'd also check the vin in the engine and tractor to make sure its the same tractor? I'd definitely want paper work.

I'm not defending any of the problems or how the dealer handled it. I'm just wondering. You mention under 100 hours. Were you checking the torque if the tractor as mentioned? I feel like if the answer is no, which I suspect may be based on the screws being finger loose, that could also cause the...

A couple things that come to my mind. - that lawn mower doesn't have a permanent rear diff lock, it has no rear diff lock at all, it's open so one wheel gets power at a time. Not sure why you have difficulty steering. - machine size shouldnt be dictated by property size but what you need to do...

Id contact the dealer and try and get one no? Every machine comes with it new

Having the thumb is a game changer, anyone in the fence should go for it. It'd be nice if it was hydraulic but the manual thumb is still a huge step up from having none

Yup that does it for sure, tapping the opposite direction. Thanks

Thanks, yea I actually have noticed that helping. It's so smooth when it goes in nicely, just can be a bit frustrating when it doesn't. Tractor has 15 hours on it so yea hopefully with time it'll get easier more consistently

I know I've seen others discuss this and it seems very common. But is there a way to make it easier to shift gears? When it won't go into a different gear I usually let the tractor roll a little in neutral and then try again. It seems to me like it's just the gears nkt lining up and so you can't...

Even when dumping the hydraulic system is being used because it's keeping pressure there to slow the dump or curl to whatever degree you allow. Otherwise if it was all gravity and no resistance from the hydraulic system it would dump quick and slam down

Are your RPMs low when that's happening? As I understand it you want your RPMs at a certain level because that's what will keep the hydraulic fluid flowing faster, too low and the system may be struggling under load. When doing loader work I'm usually at 2000 to 2500 rpm

I have a hydro and yes only the one brake that controls both rear wheels. The manual trans has the split brake.

Yea I can see them doing that. It'd be nice if they wrote which models it applies to if that's the case. I guess I'm more interested to see what other 2025 owners have over there too

Something that made me more comfortable with bobcat is, even though they have gone in and out of making tractors, their brand and dealer network are pretty solid and they have a knowledgeable base of service techs who work on heavy machinery and are well trained. Couple in that they are made by...

I was greasing and torquing my ct2025 and I came across greasing the pivot location for the brake pedal (right side under floor). Now the manual doesn't specifically say there is a zerk here, but the picture appears like it has one? Under the tractor is a see through roll pin. Does anyone have a...

The bh76 which is the newer one if that is about $10k with a 16" bucket when I bought mine. If it's in good working order and has been greased on schedule, I'd offer it up for $7k and see if anyone takes it and go from there

Did you test the starter? Un hook it from the tractor and put 12v to it and see? Or the starter solenoid?

Incase it helps, I lifted a pallet with 1240 lbs on it. It was able to curl a little bit so it leaned towards the tractor but not more and it was able to lift plenty. The weight was evenly distributed on a 40x48 pallet so I'm sure it could have curled better/ lifted more if it was closer to the...

Nope my tractors brand new and I can confirm, as I said it does not mention oil and filter change euntim the every 400 hour part. But good to know they have updated it. Thanks for replying with that

My manual doesn't say anything about engine oil until 400. I'm going to change engine oil and filter at 50. If you don't put many hours on it should you replace it yearly like all gasoline motors? This is my first diesel. It could take a couple years to get 400 hours depending on how often it's...

Thanks for the replies, it is my first tractor and I think it's helpful to hear others opinions and learn from it. With diesel prices so high, is it better to idle down and leave running while working or shut off every time and put more wear on the starter. Let's say you're just going around and...

My ct2025 is finally built and ready for delivery. What are some key items and questions to add to my list? I have the basics I think - make sure there's the owners manuals and papers for the implements -includes road triangle - had 3 point parts

Thanks! Right, can you install it after the fact? There was only one tractor left and didn't have it and I'd like to entertain buying it if I can put it in myself?

Just bought a ct2025 with backhoe, loader and pallet forks. Not delivered yet but excited to get it delivered soon. Has anyone bought the throttle/ pedal link kit and installed after the fact or must that have been bought with it? Also it appears the arm rests come sold only for one side from...
