Bobcat Pulls Itself Out of Stream

Visit www.allenergies... for more about living in the Chihuahuan Desert. We had left our Bobcat 630 parked in the dry stream bed that supplies our gravel. The hail storm and flash flood brought the water level in the stream over the operator's seat. We kept our fingers crossed it would start up...

You're right. You also shouldn't wear flip-flops while operating, and you REALLY shouldn't leave one parked in a stream bed when a storm is coming. Basically screwed up on every count....

Just a thought . Arn't those bobcats supposed supposed to be interlocked and shut off before you can climb out over the bucket like that ? I love that jagged peak in the back ground . It would be an awesome place to put up a wind turbine.

That looked more like a road than a stream bead Ha Ha .

Your lucky the engine wasn't hydro locked.
