I cringe everytime I have to take my machine to the bobcat dealer. Then one of the dealer mechanics opened a shop of his own. Now the quote and the actual bill is consistent. Thank you honest business owners!

Great to see a young guy (Mike) hot on your heels, soon he will be the guy everyone goes to for answers to their problems. Great vid!

[@jakestover9482]

Great video Brady, glad to see some younger guys learning from great techs. Something I like to do and try to stay big on is cleanliness on a job a great way I’ve found is aluminum foil tape over ports for like exhaust and coolant inlets, just to keep dust or critters out of components. If you guys ever need some bobcat help with books or anything like that I’ll gladly help out, love to see a independent guy doing good for himself.

Honest mechanics are the best

[@jackhams]

Great video as usual. Have an s250 myself i bought for incredibly cheap and doing tons of work to it so im enjoying all your videos. Thanks for continuing to make videos.

[@andrewrobinson2869]

Great job , Mike is an amazing young man .

[@robertoacuna2415]

Great video with great tips. Thanks guys.

[@tetradgroup]

Thanks for watching!

[@motionclone231]

Great video. very similar to my T300

[@lakescooterliving]

Keep the videos coming. Great work!

[@tetradgroup]

Thanks, will do!

[@martincassidy4839]

It's not a gear pump, its a orbital pump. It's a charge pump and replenish oil lost from the flushing valve and relief valves. Golden rule of hydraulic systems. Make it simple, where common parts. Switch them to see if problem switches.

[@georgeriquelme7300]

Thank you very much for your teachings. Could you clarify why the hydraulic pump on my 2013 Bobcat S130 hums when I activate the shovel faster? Thanks

[@martincassidy4839]

Should have changed over the regulator from one pump to the other. That would have shown if you had a pump or a regulator problem. By changing the regulator if failure problem would switch.

thanks guys you are awesome

Hola! Tengo una bobcat 974 que le cuesta girar para un lado y cuando se calienta ya comienza a andar mal el giro para ambos lados

[@CopperCreekCuts]

I saw an A300 on Facebook Marketplace for $5,000. They said the wheels need calibration. Sounds like a terrible job. Do you know anything about the A300's?

[@tetradgroup]

The calibration is easy, the reason it's out of calibration could be difficult and expensive

[@CopperCreekCuts]

​@@tetradgroupMuch appreciated Sir!

[@timbo1961]

If I had a dollar for every time I performed unnecessary work- I’d be retired by now! 😂 Another learning experience for us all. Great video!

[@jeffhaney2827]

Great video guys.

[@jessstrawn8468]

2001 773, when I use the beak attachment when boom is raised, the tilt or boom acts up. trying to lower boom can make bucket tilt instead or not lower, etc. turn, engine off restart it usually works. Sometimes, it takes awhile any advice

[@CarmeloBonanno-oy8yh]

Hi I have a 2019 bobcat t630 with error code m6604 can you help?

[@garym4536]

Yikes guys! I hope your customer isn't being charged for the engine removal/replacement.

[@Rprecision]

So how do you charge for a repair like this? What a complicated mess....

[@tetradgroup]

I this situation I gave the customer a best case and worse case quote. Even the worst case (replacing the pump) was still half the price of the quote he got from another shop.

[@kc9146]

Hi! Where do you order your mechanic shirts from??

[@tetradgroup]

[@Stoparts]

Bravo colleagues, perfect introducing and nice channel

[@roadsideservice2406]

[@lizethcoley6847]

Danfoss 42R28 great

[@FixinCat]

Internal charge pump would be a “gerotor” pump

[@sudhakardevadiga4730]

Hi

[@CTSCAPER]

05:11 I see what you did there. "Ya'll gonna make me lose my mind. Up in here, up in here." kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpmsh6d7hNmfja8si=Y4_2BuTT1YkbRa1y&t=124

[@reedyg9182]

That’s what you call open-heart surgery

[@MD_TETRAD_GROUP]

Learned a lot on this one!
