Kubota BX-23 & Toolcat 5600 D
Our Bobcat dealer dropped it off yesterday. It's a D-series with 120 hours on it. I'm waiting for a Bobcat blower and a Quick-Attach plow that are both still about 2-3 weeks out. So I guess I'm in a race with the weather.

Many thanks to the folks on this forum who've answered my questions. Hopefully I'll be able to help others as others have helped me.

I like the TC so far and it makes quite an impression when driving up to a potential client's place and giving them an estimate for snow removal. I think I need to have my company's name on the side of the dump box or something along those lines. Other than that, about the only thing I'm going to have to add to this outfit is a couple pairs of tire chains. The stock tires are some fairly aggressive "R-4's", I think. They are the 27" tires.

About the only thing I don't like is that I'm used to a bi-directional hydro pedal on my Kubota and the TC shifts from F to R kinda like a car/pickup. I also must find a way to dampen the reverse alarm.
