Anyone got the s650? Just got a new one on monday. Moved up from a 205. SJC controls with ac/radio/2speed etc. First thing i've noticed is that it doesn't track straight. What do you think of yours?
1st thing to check, make sure your tire pressures are equal, then call your dealer about your tracking issues, it's a new machine afterall. your operators manual may tell you how to access drift compensation off the top of my head, i cant tell you how to do it. :drinkup
i found the drift compensation, That's an awesome piece of equipment. Wish the old 205 had it.
thought i'd give a bit of an update. got some seat time in it doing different things. Sweeping, augering, loading branches, placing gravel. It is a really great machine, Handles well, lots of power. Only thing bobcat didn't get right is the spacing for moving points. Squeeks a bit when going up and down. Maybe paint was a little to thick, which isn't a bad thing. Only has about 15 hours on it now so i guess we'll see how it goes when i start chipping trees and grinding stumps.
you might want to grease it if it's squeeking :my2c :drinkup
i greased it, then greased it again. And then i greased it once more haha. The squeeking is because the paint is either to thick or they didn't allow enough clearance.
LMFAO ! ...... bindare donedat ....... the grease is not a fix-all in your case either ....... my A-300 (at times) has done the same thing since new..... got 2800hrs on'er now and showing NO signs of excess wear anywhere ..... just one of those stupid things you gotta live with .... If I was to guess where, it would be in that smaller black stabilizer arm on both sides under the main boom ... jmho
Thats exactly where its coming from. My 2012 T770 did the same exact thing for about 100 hours and then stopped. Very annoying indeed !!!!
Have s650 with off brand planner all function work except the left paddle switch to the left. If you push it to the right it will move to right but when you push it to left the drum will stop turn and it will not side shift to left but engine will pull down like the hydraulics are dead heading. Is it turning rear hydraulics on when paddle is pushed to the left? It acts like the 14 pin controller is not seeing front attachment any help
Bought a used S650 with 3800hrs on it, wondering if someone can someone tell me if the S650 makes a bit of a growling hydraulic noise when in 2nd gear while turning? Doesn’t make any noise in first gear. Wondering if I should be concerned or not about it.
yes all bobcats will make noise when turning in high speed. in 2 speed, depending on load, some machines will bog down and not turn at all. in high speed, you sacrifice torque for speed
This a new to me machine that I’ve ran for about 25 hours now, I did a complete service on it except for the chain case oil, checked it today finally and i added about 8L to it to finally get it anywhere near the fill whole on a very level surface. Noise was reduced big time afterwards
