Bobcat makes premium features standard on its tractors, so attachments and implements are easy to switch and easy to use.

Front-End Loader Versatility: Easily move or carry dirt, mulch or manure; dig dirt and dump material with our front-end loader. Bobcat’s dual hydraulic pumps, together with greater tractive effort, provide consistent, ample power for lifting.

3-Point Hitch Versatility: Designed so one person can quickly change implements as the job requires-without constantly climbing on and off the tractor to check your link positioning.

Telescoping lower links are typically found on premium machines, but they come standard on most Bobcat compact tractors.

PTO Versatility: Every Bobcat tractor comes with rear Power Take-Off for your rear-mounted implements, and optional mid-PTO operates plenty of powered implements that eliminate difficult hand labor.

Independent PTO is a premium feature that comes standard on tractor models CT335 and up. With independent PTO, you just pull or push a button to engage or disengage the PTO without stopping the tractor or using a clutch.

Bobcat’s hydrostatic transmission: enables smooth, easy direction changes to maneuver comfortably.

Suspension seat: a standard feature on all Bobcat compact tractors, reduces bumps and vibrations that can quickly wear you down.

An optional deluxe suspension seat makes your ride even more comfortable.

Optional cabs are also available to keep you cool in summer and warm during the winter.

Rubber floor mat: dampens vibrations and reduces noise to give you a better day’s work.

Deluxe instrumental panel: provides important operator information that’s easy to see and read.

Bobcat’s integrated joystick control: mounted on the tractor instead of on the loader. You don’t have to reach outward to use it, and it doesn’t block your entry and exit from the tractor on either side.

An adjustable suspension seat, tilt steering and open foot space—even the details like a handy cup holder—work together to make your time on the tractor a comfortable, enjoyable experience.

Bobcat’s hydrostatic and shuttle shift transmissions allow you to quickly and easily change directions.

Tight Turning Maneuverability: Our smaller tractor models have a tight turning radius, and our larger models are equipped with steering brakes. This allows you to easily maneuver around obstacles and tight turns, allowing you to get more done in less time.

Increased Tractive Effort: The added weight of Bobcat compact tractors puts more horse-power to the ground and prevents wheel spin. Standard four-wheel drive provides power to the rear and front axles, delivering power and traction-even in slippery conditions.

Simple Serviceability: Maintenance points on your tractor are easy to find and reach. That means upkeep is simple and takes up less of your time—so you’ll get peak performance day in and day out.

Dual-Cooling System: Includes a radiator dedicated to engine cooling, and a hydraulic cooler for transmission. This system runs more efficiently and protects your engine, so your tractor will run better and last longer.

A sealed engine compartment keeps dirt from getting into your engine compartment and extends the life of your components.
