Fingertip Controls: Bobcat control of attachment hydraulics leads the industry. Attachments are more comfortable to operate, controlled easily and adjusted simply from the fingertip controls.

Heat and Air Conditioning: Because our optional AC units are integrated into the machine, there is no bulky add-on unit to obstruct your visibility. Automotive-style vents allow you to point your air where you need it for greater comfort in all weather conditions.

Large Entry/Exit: Bobcat re-engineered the largest cab front opening in the industry and now made it bigger! On machines with enclosed cabs, Bobcat provides a large swing open door to make it easier to enter and exit the cab. A lowered door threshold gives you increased visibility to your attachment and the surrounding work area – making it easier to see and do your work.

More Room: Our stronger, narrower loader arms make a wider cab possible, with up to 20% more interior space than competitors, keeping you comfortable.

Quieter Operation: The sound within the cab is reduced by more than 60% for a more comfortable and quieter working environment. Quieter than ordinary cooling fans, Bobcat’s hydraulic-powered SmartFAN senses the temperature of the machine and only turns as fast as needed.

Radio Capable: Order your loader with a stereo to increase your comfort. The radio features an auxiliary audio input jack that is ready for an MP3 player or other audio device.

Suspension Seat: Other comfort items include a fully adjustable suspension seat, adjusting easily to the operator’s weight.

Attachment Control Device: In simplest terms, the optional Attachment Control Device makes it possible for the loader and attachment to communicate.

Bob-TachTM: Change attachments in less than a minute! You can replace a bucket with a pallet fork, landscape rake, auger, grapple, and more than 70 Bobcat attachments quickly and easily with the Bob-Tach™ mounting system. See why the Bob-Tach attachment mounting system is the industry’s best. Watch the side-by-side Bobcat Advantage Quick-Tach Comparison video.

Control in Your Hands: With Bobcat compact track loaders, you can feel and control the loader’s drive, engine torque and tractive effort—so you can push your machine to the limit without an engine anti-stall system robbing you of power when you need it the most.

Faster Cycle Times: Hydraulic pumps in Bobcat loaders are matched to cylinder size and loader lift capacity to provide fast cycle times that help you get the job done faster.

High-Flow Hydraulics: Need more attachment power? This optional system provides additional hydraulic power to boost production of attachments.

Hydraulic Bucket Positioning: Optional hydraulic bucket positing keeps your bucket level when raising lift arms, reducing spillage and allowing you to work more efficiently.

More Torque: Bobcat loaders reach maximum torque at a lower RPM to minimize stalling and save time and fuel.

Powerful Breakout Forces: High-efficiency hydraulic pumps deliver more power, matched to demand and providing breakout forces. Bobcat loaders have unmatched lift breakout. Watch the results in the Bobcat Advantage Lift Breakout Challenge video.

Power Bob-Tach™ Powered Mounting System: Change non-hydraulic attachments from the comfort of your cab - with the flip of a switch. You can swap a bucket with pallet forks without ever leaving your seat with the optional Power Bob-Tach™ mounting system.

Quick Couplers with Pressure Release: By simply pushing the coupler inward, the hydraulic oil is released through a return line back into the machine. The result is clean, quick attachment changes time after time.

Quicker Turning: Bobcat’s weight distribution has been designed for the best turning and skidding to deliver ideal performance, with 70% of distribution in the rear and 30% in the front. This quick turning reduces fuel consumption and power requirements from the engine, increasing the life of drive train and tires.

Remote Control: All loaders equipped with Selectable Joystick Control or All Wheel Steer can be operated by the optional Radio Remote Control. Bobcat Company is the first and only company to introduce a new way to operate your equipment without having to have an operator in the cab. This is a smart solution for hot, dusty environments or on jobs where you’d rather be outside of the machine.

Ride Control Option: Optional ride control is the cushioning of the loader lift circuit, which helps increase the smoothness of the ride.

Roller Suspension: Bobcat’s optional Roller Suspension is the first suspension system for compact track loaders that uses an all steel design for increase durability, as well as the only suspension for the more durable steel inbed tracks. What makes the Roller Suspension system the best choice for a smoother ride? Watch the Bobcat Advantage Suspension Comparison video.

Selectable Joystick Controls: Optional SJC allows you to operate the machine with only your hands. You can easily switch between, “ISO” pattern, where the left joystick operates the drive functions and the right joystick controls the workgroup, or “H” pattern with a dash-mounted rocker switch inside the cab.

Battery Run-Down Protection: The lighting circuit automatically shuts down to prevent accidental battery discharge. It is voltage sensitive, and will turn the lights off prior to battery discharge. This minimizes the impact of vandalism or when lights are left on after the work is done.

Dual Path Cooling: The loader draws in a majority of cool, clean air from above through the oil cooler and radiator, while small amounts of hot air are drawn out of the engine compartment. The combination is then exhausted out two side vents, keeping hot air away from the operator, providing more efficient cooling and keeping engine components clean. Is the Bobcat cooling system really more effective than others? See for yourself in the Cooling Advantages video.

Machine Shutdown Protection: Bobcat loaders come standard with automatic shutdown that monitors engine and hydraulic functions. The system alerts the operator and actually shuts the machine down—lessening the chance of damage to the engine or hydraulic components.

Protected Cooling Location: The Bobcat loader radiator and hydraulic oil cooler are well protected between the frame uprights, above the engine and out of danger. Learn more about the Bobcat cooling system in the Cooling Advantages video.

Protected Quick-Couplers: Leaves no exposed hoses to damage. Integrated, pressure-release quick couplers are mounted directly into the front plate of the lift arm. Learn why this matters by watching the Bobcat Advantage Hose Routing Comparison video.

Protected Hose Routing: We provide better protection of our hoses by running them through the loader arms and frame uprights. We use more expensive steel tubing in small areas that are exposed to outside elements. The simplicity in the design is that hoses are less apt to be snagged and broken if they are not exposed, meaning more time working for you. Bobcat sets the standard for hose routing. Compare other brands in the Bobcat Advantage Hose Routing Comparison video.

Radius Lift Path: Radius lift path provides maximum reach at truck bed height. Arm movement forms an arc that delivers a better reach than at flatbed truck height. A radius lift path excels in jobs at mid-range heights, like dumping over a wall, backfilling or unloading flatbed trucks. Bobcat offers more choices for radius lift path models. Learn more in the Bobcat Advantage Lift Arm Comparison video.

Self Diagnostics: Bobcat loaders provide on-board diagnostics to efficiently troubleshoot problems in the field or prevent them before they occur —reducing downtime for you. Downloadable machine performance history also cuts out a huge chunk of the time needed to identify potential problems and correct them.

Single Plane Design: The patented single plane design of Bobcat loader lift arms is superior to other machines. We keep every pin and connecting point in the same plane, greatly reducing the side deflection of the lift arm. This stronger design leads to longer lift arm life because there is less chance of failure and better wearing. Watch more benefits in the Bobcat Advantage Lift Arm Comparison video.

Steel Tracks: Bobcat offers the only compact loader with optional steel tracks to give you increased uptime and more pushing power in brutal, abrasive working environments. These hard-wearing tracks provide longer undercarriage life and unmatched pushing force.

Protective Tailgate: The one piece 3/8”inch thick door is solid steel. There are no cooling holes, slots or other openings on the heavy-duty door that could potentially lead to extra time in the shop.

Superior Serviceability: Bobcat loaders are designed for fastest and easiest servicing in the industry. Every single daily maintenance item such as engine fluid check, filters, battery, air cleaner and other components are out in the open when you open the tailgate. Compare other brands by watching the Bobcat Advantage Serviceability Comparison video.

Tilt-Up Cab: Bobcat created the tilt-up cab for non-routine maintenance, so shop time is spent on maintenance or repair, not gaining access.

Training: Bobcat Company offers the world’s only comprehensive training courses for loaders, VersaHandlers, loader backhoes, Toolcat utility work machines, backhoe and planer attachments, and compact excavators.

Transverse Engine/Belt Drive: Transverse Engine/Belt Drive: Thanks to the Bobcat belt-drive system, loader engines can run slower, resulting in a quieter machine that lasts longer. This belt-drive system allows Bobcat loaders to use an optimized engine-to-pump package, making it more efficient.
