B780 Backhoe Loader

The standard Bobcat 4.4 liter, 4 cylinder, 100 HP turbocharged diesel engine delivers the power you need for the most demanding applications, while reducing operating costs. It features a high-quality filtration system for longer life, and its single-side service components make maintenance and daily checks easy.

Bobcat® Backhoe Loaders have an open center hydraulic system and are equipped with a tandem gear pump with high flow capacities. The unloader valve is standard in all models - it increases productivity, provides more control, lowers operating costs, and combines the high flow capabilities which give you rapid movement, with the low power requirements which give you precise control. With a Bobcat backhoe loader you can accomplish the most demanding jobs!

To increase productivity, the B780 helps you reduce the steering load and improve maneuverability with the choice of 3 different steering modes: 2 Wheel Steer, 4 Wheel Steer, and Crab Steer.

With powerful breakout forces, strong full-lift capacities and more forward reach at full-lift height, Bobcat backhoe loaders can match your most demanding material handling tasks - and get the job done efficiently. For more versatility and productivity, choose from our general purpose or 6-in-1 buckets - or from other Bobcat optional equipment.

For high-performance digging, lifting and trenching at maximum reach, Bobcat backhoe loaders allow you to handle the toughest jobs with ease, whatever the application. And for even more versatility, Bobcat® optional attachments help you do more with one machine.

Bobcat® Backhoe Loaders' superior ground clearance and 25° back ramp angle make climbing over steep slopes much easier.

Bobcat® B780's standard auto powershift transmission gives you smooth and precise gearshifts - ideal for jobs that require continual changes of direction on the work site.

Bobcat® backhoe loaders give you self-cleaning steps and a full-size grip for easy access and an extra measure of safety while getting in and out.

Bobcat cabs are designed for maximum comfort and safety. B750 and B780 backhoe loaders gives you a fully-adjustable suspension seat to ensure a comfortable driving position, whatever your height. You can tilt the steering column and adjust its distance from you by simply pressing the foot pedal - for easier steering and better visibility. The backhoe joystick consoles on the right and left sides of the cab can be adjusted separately to suit you, for maximum comfort. The front dashboard is mounted on the tiltable steering column so the switches, displays and controls are always close to you - no need to stretch and make yourself even more tired during a long day's work. The side dashboard has large, easy-to-read indicators, and controls are also within easy reach.

Featured as standard on B750 and B780, Bobcat joystick controls not only give you precise control, they also require less effort and are more comfortable to operate. So you can increase productivity and work for longer periods without feeling tired.

Operator safety is hugely important to Bobcat. That's why our backhoe loader cabs have glass surface enlarged to the top corners and large outside mirrors to increase visibility of the sides and bucket ends from the cab. A sun visor is standard, to protect your eyes from intense sunlight while driving and working on-site. A heated rear glass ensures a quick defrost on those winter early mornings.

Bobcat® backhoe loaders' standard 2-year powertrain warranty is proof of the reliability and durability of our powertrain matchings - for extra protection and your peace of mind.

To maximize uptime, the Bobcat fuel tank is resistant to inner and outer corrosion. So it is compatible with various types of fuel, protects the system from corrosive blockages and extends the machine's lifetime. The underside of the fuel tank is safeguarded to protect it from impact damage on rough ground.

All-sealed pins and bushings extend the lifetime of attachment linkages by preventing the entry of dust or blockages. This also increases machine uptime, due to longer intervals between service interventions.

Clamshell hoses and swing hoses are safeguarded by hose wraps to protect them from external damage, extending their working life and increasing machine uptime.

Bobcat designs its loaders for quick and easy maintenance and service: the engine compartment and other locations are easily accessed at ground level by simply removing the side panels. The tanks are refueled from ground level as well, and they're protected with a lock that matches the ignition key!

Audible and visual warnings on main functions alert operators to important issues, so that services can be performed on time.

Center-drilled lubrication points are well positioned for easy access.

Featured as standard on B730, B750 and B780, the bolt-type cylinder head enables quick replacement of the seal kit during machine overhaul and minimizes parts costs.

You can increase the versatility and productivity of your backhoe loader with the choice of general purpose or 6-in-1 buckets - or other optional Bobcat attachments.

Our broad range of backhoe attachments gives you great versatility, enabling you to do more with one machine.
