Bobcat 331 excavator pattern change

Short video showing what lines to switch to change patterns on the older 331 mini excavators without a pattern selector on them.

Backhoe vs. Excavator! I learned on a four stick Case 580k and went to John Deere/ backhoe controls and could never get used to Cat/ excavator controls!

I learned on a 331 just like this. It took me a little bit to get decent on our 590 4 stick Case. I call the Cat controll operators "left handed" because when I get in one, I'm about as coordinated as trying to write left handed. No disrespect to them, it's just awkward for me.

Damn thats a clean 331

It was just painted. It is a low hour machine. I believe about 1200 hrs on a 95.

Good video. I have a 325 is it the same sort of swap?

[@TimMcArdle]

I believe they are very similar
