Bobcat 425 mini excavator questions.

[Tugcapt85]

I just bough a 2011 425 mini and have been putting hours on it. It has a full cab but I notice it is super loose and makes a lot of noise when I'm tracking or swinging. Are there cab mounts or adjustments? Does the cab lift and how? I have a leaky hose so after figuring out how to tighten the cab down if it can lift it would make the change a lot easier. Thankyou for any info!

Cab does not lift, Access to swing joint is through floor plate. Cab mounts are located at the corners inside the cab and probably need tightened or replaced.:thumbsup:

Thankyou! Cab mounts are gone. Do you know if I have to pick the cab off to replace them or do they just go snug through the hole? Thanks again.

I think you can do it 2 at a time. Leave front bolts in but loose then pry up and block rear of the cab to replace rear isolator bushings. Install rear bolts but leave loose until front bushings are in then tighten all 4 mount bolts.
