What is the best avg operating RPM for the bobcat t-190 skidsteer. To achieve best motor performance and protecting Hydraulic components. My idle speed is at 1230 rpm .What RPM should I move it too , to operate. normal operating such as leveling , lifting , digging should it variate with job to be done ,or remain constant.
Seems a little high for idle, but I think your trying to complicate a crowbar on the whole operating rpm thing, just run the thing and you will get used to it and figure out where you need to run at, there is normally no need for WOT unless your running an attachment or traveling Pj
thanks powerjoke, what would you have the idle speed at?
1200 sounds about right for idle. For lifting and setting, what ever engine speed makes you happy. For digging and moving dirt you are wasting time not running full bore. You are not going to hurt anything in the hydraulic system running are full engine speed, that is what the system performance is rated at.
Good Info Bobcatan . Just didn't want to lug engine down. With motor runnin at full bore sometimes sounds like it would tear something up. I certainly appreciate the your responding.
