Hi all, first post here. I've lurked and used the info here to help drive decisions on what machine to get next, so here's to giving back. I just bought a 2016 Bobcat Toolcat 5600 with ~2100 hrs that was very clean. It's replacing a 2004 Bobcat S185 that I currently have and use for mowing...

Planned on getting a set of OTT tracks to use in real muddy conditions as well as out in the woods. Has anyone had any experience with TracksPlus Steel Skid-Steer Tracks ? They are listed at Northern Tool as well as my local JD dealer. I will not be using these all of the time so I don't want...

I have a 04-05 S185 that won't start puffs black smoke but won't start! Does this unit have a timing belt or is it gear driven? Does it have a computer if so how do you read codes? Has anyone else experienced this? Thanks Guys!!

I've got a line on a couple of Bobcat 709 backhoes for my 2008 S185. A friend is parts manager at the local Bobcat dealer. He says we're looking at over $700 for the mounting kit. Google search isn't finding me much without a part number. Anyone have a part number or a used set to sell?

Looking for suggestions. I have an S185 that started shutting down randomly last year. When it shuts down it is as if a key is turned off. Unlike other problems I've read about, this skid steer fires right up after it stops. Even more curiously is that since I started trying to troubleshoot...

My bobcat is being worked on by my brother but we cant figure out how to move it from his front yard to back. Please help.

So my bobcat has acs light on and now I can't lift or tilt. A few days ago I switched from hand controls to foot controls for about an hour. I switched back to hand controls and was fine. The next day I was plowing snow and the acs came on. I turned machine off and back on it was fine. Next day...

I have a 05-06 s185. Has glass door, a/c unit, joysticks,. there is something in the computer board or wire harness on the right side of unit (when your siting in the cab). When you hit yellow button to turn on display, it beeps, gauge needles flip across, hour meter lightsup and then it all...

While backing down off a pile, I stood my bobcat up on it's tale. When I tipped it back on it's wheels, the engine will not turn over. I can manually turn the engine over, using a screw driver on the ring gear teeth, but it comes to a hard stop at one position. Could this be hydraulic lock (fuel...

Here's a pic of the S185 that I've had about a month and still learning how to operate. This a a newer bucket that I bought to replace the original because it is almost junk. I got the bobtach working and welded up a couple of cracks on the bobtach bracket. It still has all of that dried...

I've added hydro fluid to the reservoir because I didn't see any oil in the sight glass on the side. After adding about 1.5 gallons I see oil half way up in the glass. Is this full or should I add more?

I am the 2nd owner of a Bobcat S185 and new to skidsteers. With the engine at about 1000rpms the liftarms barely move up with no load and only a bucket on and I am wondering if this is a problem or not. If I increase to 14-1500 they raise faster but not fast enough according to my sil who has...

I have a 2003 Bobcat S185, 2000 hours operation. I has a strange problem...'sometimes' it won't start!, it does not do this each and every time we try to start it. Sometimes it starts just fine...other times, when we turn on the key switch, nothing happens,If we leave the key on...it will...

I have a s185 and it is giving me a code of 32-04. It previously had a code of 32-65 but it seemed to clear itself of that. All fuses are good, all plugs appear to be ok. Now what? Thanks!

Skidsteer stopped running while idling. Wouldn't restart, "input" displayed in hour meter. Later code of 17-07 came up. Cleaned all grounds, checked main wire harness connections for corrosion(none found). All fuses and relay check out ok. HELP!

Just browsing around at the moment, not ready to show up with cash or make a deal with anyone yet but have a question. Will a 907 backhoe work on my 2008 S185 (non high flow)? Here's what I saw on the local CL: Bobcat backhoe attachment Backhoe attachment Also checking out some lower priced...

I was looking at a new s590 and the dealer has a new S185 left. Any reason to get one over the other besides cost? I have not gotten final price on s185 yet.

I've got a 2008 S185 with 1260 hours on it. Bought it last September and have only put 40 hours on it since then. It's worked perfectly fine. Yesterday I got an "extreme low oil pressure" warning and shut it down. I checked the oil. Full. A few minutes later it started just fine. There is no...

Just had to replace a wiper blade on a 2008 S185. The standard blade from an automotive application wouldn't work because the pin on the wiper arm is too short to go completely through the attachment point. The blade would wiggle back and forth until it pulled off of the wiper arm. I wound up...

Hello guys, new here and I'm looking for some help. I have a 2006 Bobcat S185 that today the bucket controls quit, panel reads, ACS (AHC) no communication to bobcat controller. Has anyone seen this before and is there anything I can do before taking it into the dealer?:confused2: Thanks in advance.

It starts fine, but after about 5 seconds it beeps several times, 3 of the 4 lights start flashing and you can hear the lockout kick in. At that point no controls work. If I let it run about 15 minutes and shut it off and restart then everything works normally. Only error code is 41-10. I...
