L35 Features & Benefits
Performance
17
Impressive Lift Height
With 114.8 inches of lift height (flat bottom bucket), the Bobcat L35 gives you impressive height and reach for work up high, such as clearing hoppers, trucks and fences.
Highly Maneuverable and Easy Access to Small Job-Sites
At just 54 inches wide, the small yet mighty L35 can access and be operated on small jobsites where larger machines can't go.
High Rated Operating Capacity
A rated operating capacity of 1,902 pounds provides heavy-lifting performance in a small footprint. You’ll be able to take full advantage of its standard 7/8-cubic-yard bucket capacity (0.35 cubic meters) and bring its excellent lifting performance to a wide range of jobsites.
Impressive Breakout Forces
With 1,814 kg of lift breakout force and 2,087 kg tilt breakout, there’s no stopping you when working in tough ground conditions or digging into dense piles of material.
2-Speed Travel
Adapt your performance to the job and spend less time traveling across a jobsite or between jobs. Move faster – and get the job done sooner – with 2-Speed travel. This time-saving feature boosts your top travel speed to as high as 16 mph. A convenient button on the L35 joystick enables easy, on-the-fly speed mode changes without having to stop and change your operating range.
High Horsepower
Get high performance from a small machine, with a 57-hp (1.8 L) turbo-charged, Tier 4 engine that generates generous torque at low rpms and swift travel speeds.
Optional High-Flow Auxiliary for Attachments
The L35’s high-flow capabilities lead the industry. When equipped with optional high-flow hydraulics, the L35 offers industry-leading 25.3 gpm auxiliary flow for more productivity with Bobcat attachments, including snowblowers, soil conditioners and brush cutters.
Standard-Flow Auxiliary Hydraulics
The L35 is a highly versatile machine, equipped to power a variety of attachments with standard-flow auxiliary hydraulics of 18 gpm.
Auto Idle
The factory installed option auto idle can help you save fuel and reduce noise during operation. When the L35 stops moving for several seconds, the engine idles automatically. When you start to work again, the engine returns to its previously set throttle position.
Optional Automatic Ride Control
The automatic ride control option acts as a suspension for the L35 lift arm, helping to offset terrain irregularities for a smoother and more comfortable ride while carrying a load. There’s less chance of spilling transported material, helping you be as efficient as possible with every work cycle.
Telescoping and Self-Levelling Lift Arm
The L35 lift arm extends to a lift height of 114.8 inches. The telescoping lift arm includes a dual-parallel leveling system that keeps the load level as you move the bucket. The telescopic cylinder is synchronized with a hydraulic leveling link that delivers smooth functionality, leveling assist, reduced bucket spillage and fast cycle times.
Tight Turning Radius
The small articulated loader delivers precise maneuverability, thanks to the articulation joint design that enables the rear tires of the loader to match the path of the front tires. This results in a highly nimble machine that navigates around obstacles with ease, leaves minimal surface wear and works well in enclosed yards or other small work zones.
Minimal Ground Disturbance
With its tight-turning steering radius and light overall footprint, the Bobcat L35 limits cuts or tears in the turf when turning or hauling a load. This leads to fewer surface repairs after the job is complete.
Standard and Optional Counterweight
The standard integrated counterweight provides optimal lift capacity and extra protection for the machine’s composite covers and cooling package.
Optional add-on rear counterweights further increase lift capacity and productivity. The counterweights follow the contours of the loader to maintain ground clearance and a slim profile.
Easy to Transport
Small articulated loaders are a highly transportable and a relatively lightweight solution that enables you to quickly get your machine to the job and get to work. It will easily fit on pan trailers, dump trailers and even in some enclosed trailers that are utilized for small-frame skid-steer loaders.
Efficient Cooling
The Bobcat L35 features an efficient cooling system for optimal operation and maximum component protection. Side and front inlets bring cool air into the engine compartment and out the screened rear exit. The rear radiator screen is removable for easy cleanout, and its corrugated steel construction provides excellent durability. A separate temperature-controlled hydraulic oil cooler operates as needed to ensure quieter operation as well.
High Tractive Effort
The Bobcat small articulated loader features series-connected drive motors that allow the machine to keep moving in rough or uneven terrain, even if one or more wheels lose traction.
Automatic Traction Mode
When operating L35, the machine automatically enables one of two traction modes based on operation.
High Traction: When driving straight, the L35 automatically provides all-wheel traction for optimal control and mobility, especially over rough or slippery terrain.
Turf Safe: While actively steering, turf-safe mode keeps the wheels from scrubbing on the ground, minimizing ground disturbance.
Optional Traction Assist Switch
Similar to a differential lock, traction assist enables you to momentarily override the automatic modes. With a convenient button located on the joystick, you can enable all wheels to travel through adverse conditions such as mud or slippery ground.
Comfort

Tilt Float and Lift-Arm Float
The Bobcat L35 features both Tilt Float and Lift-Arm Float for optimal attachment operations. Tilt Float and Lift-Arm Arm float allow the attachment to follow the ground contour with optimal down pressure. Operators experience better attachment performance and improved steering during attachment operations. With optimal downward pressure, you’ll also create less wear on your attachments.
Ergonomic Controls
The steering wheel and joystick are within easy reach. Intuitive fingertip auxiliary and telescopic controls facilitate quick, simple, comfortable and productive operations. Operators don't have to take their hands off the joystick to activate mechanical switches when operating attachments, which make for efficient and productive operation. From the joystick, operators also can engage variable flow control, similar to our skid-steer and compact track loaders.
Spacious Cab With Heat, Air Conditioning and 3-Point Seatbelt
Compared to other small articulated loaders, the Bobcat L35 interior is engineered with more usable space for the operator, with special attention paid to cab height, foot room, and room between the seat and the steering wheel. A USB port keeps your devices charged and ready to use, while cab storage gives you space for personal items, gloves, cell phone and other essentials. The cab headliner dampens sound and helps to keep your cab temperature more consistent. Heat and air conditioning keep you working comfortably in extreme heat and frigid cold. The 3-point seatbelt provides security for operators.
Intuitive Twin-Pedal Travel Controls
A simple twin-pedal design enables quick and easy direction changes: One pedal moves you forward, and the other moves you in reverse. It’s a style of travel control that is easy for operators to master, making the small articulated loader a great choice for seasonal employees or rental customers. It’s also convenient and simple for operators who need to understand controls for multiple machines.
Ergonomic Joystick Control
Comfortable to use and simple to operate, the L35 joystick provides an experience that will be familiar to users of other Bobcat machines, like compact wheel loaders and telehandlers. There’s less need to take your hands away from the joystick to find buttons and switches or operate certain features. The Bobcat joystick gives you quick, responsive control of the lift arm and fingertip access to numerous adjustments and machine features such as:
- On-the-fly traction assist (similar to differential lock)
- 2-Speed travel switch
- Auxiliary hydraulics
- Tilt float
- Lift-arm float

Optional Radio with Bluetooth Connectivity
A optional Bluetooth-enabled radio gives you more on-the-job news, podcasts, music and other entertainment.
Adjustable 4.3-Inch Color LCD with Keyless Start
The 4.3-inch LCD screen displays critical machine information and warnings to improve overall productivity. Keyless start with password protection helps you avoid lost time due to missing keys. Keyed option available.
