Auto attach?

[gtg4it]

I got my D this week. Its a pain to get out to attach and detach equipment. Does anyone know of an automatic setup?

I was surprised they do not offer this on the toolcat..
My neighbor is installing a hydraulic quick attach system on his older bobcat skid steer and I hope to have him do the same on my D next winter. He bought all the parts from Bobcat. Wonder if he can do it on my tractor???

Somebody here mentioned an electric over hydraulic unit that was manufactured to fit a NH CUT FEL which has skid steer type attachment. That might work.

When I first got my ToolCat, I immediately asked my dealer for a retrofit automatic Bobtatch.... but was told it was not available. Over the last year, I have become accustomed to "the program" of getting out and handling the lock levers. As I lock the levers, I'm aware that the tool was loaded squarely, the face is clean and the locking teeth are greased, etc. Moreover, it seems most of my attachments require their own hydraulic hose attachments, so I would be getting out and making those connections anyway... Now the idea of auto attach doesn't even seem germane to my work (pleasure) day.

From what I recently heard, the hydraulic bobtach will probably be available later this year for the toolcat, like on their skid steers.
