I had to buy the 753 to help do clean up after hurricanes here in central Florida, it wasn't really in my budget but needed it bad, so being able to save money fixing things myself is a big deal. Your video has the best real content that I needed, I'll be watching you from now on ...thanks so much.

[@joshsautoandcustoms9840]

I still enjoy the opportunities I get to work on equipment. You always made me try to figure out how to fix it by myself first then would step in if I still needed help. You are also one of the contributing people who made want to create my company with a higher level of customer service and repair quality.

We have just bought a 2003 bobcat 753, it has a ton of issues and bodges that the previous owners are responsible for. We are currently working through these problems. Your videos are really helpful, clear and well edited, you deserve a lot more subscribers. Hope to see more videos on the bobcat stuff. Many thanks from the UK.

Thank you so much for the comment! Let me know if you have any specific questions on your machine.

[@RockinGG567]

Was your only symptom prior to the repair an oil leak? Or did you have any creeping issue

I never write comments on KZbin, just wanted to say that you should keep up the good work on these videos. U are so helpful, and I can honestly say that I haven’t found a youtuber who knows these machines better than you. There is only one reason why you don’t have more subs that’s the KZbin algorithm. You will need to upload more often, if you want more wives… I just bought an old Bobcat 753, and your videos are a lifesaver. A big thank you from Denmark.

Do you have a video on centering steering your videos are great searched through all of them and can’t find one of setting steering I have a 863 with steering issues removed top plate found steer triangle’s loose and pivot bearings frozen got all that taken care of and went to set steering sense it had a creep but found with the plate off the top of the pumps right pump finds center fairly easy but left pump fights to find center and it’s a really narrow section where I can find neutral but I was hoping to find a video to center the pump if you have that if not any information is much appreciated

Hey man thanks for the videos I help me learn a lot stuff about bobcat but i have a question my boss has a 763 and we call it the crazy one and the problem is that when you start the skid steer i will drive forward or backwards be him self or it will go left or right be himself and i will like to know is the problem to see if you know something o and another one is that once you start driving it it will lock and jump please help me

[@tetradgroup]

Steering linkage is worn and out of adjustment, I should have a video soon.

[@KM-bv3fp]

What oil do you use for hydro oil? I bought a used machine with no manual and there seems to be a debate on what oil to use. I have an S175 that is very similar to your machine and this pump video is really helpful and confidence inspiring.

[@tetradgroup]

Well thank you for the comment. Yes there's always going to be debate on what hydraulic oil to use. I personally use bobcat hydraulic oil. It is more expensive and it comes out to about an ISO 40 weight. However the Bobcat oil has a much higher zinc content for lubrication. If you were to lose hydraulic oil such as a busted hose or another issue you would want that high zinc content to protect the internal components if something were to happen. Not perfect but peace of mind if you can stick with the Bobcat oil.

[@TomBaugh]

Thanks for doing a great job on your videos. Keep up the good work. I have an s205 that has an unbalanced steering. It was a good view of the mechanism "linkage" from pintle through linkage. I hope to figure it all out. Some sort of balancing act it seems. Extend one rod and the other is inadequate. I'll have to go through your videos and see if you address that elsewhere.

[@tetradgroup]

I'm working on a steering video, hopefully be up soon.

[@justatool]

A video on forward creep adjustment would be helpful to alot of people,

[@jessejuanbella]

Question u mentioned that ur bobcat creeps forward I was wondering how did u fix that I have a 753 and was wondering how to fix it

[@tetradgroup]

It might be time for a steering rebuild however you can buy some time by adjusting the steering blocks on top of the pumps. They're probably worn and have some slop between the block and the bearings. It's not hard to do, it's just a little difficult to explain. Start by raising the machine off the ground, start the machine lower the arm bar release the brakes and then raise the cab at this point the side that creeps should be spinning freely off the ground. You'll see the centering blocks on top of the pump you'll need a 9/16 wrench to loosen the bolts just barely and then tap the bolts with a hammer to push the block tighter against the bearings until the steering becomes perfectly neutral. This is a very vague explanation but maybe it'll make sense once you look at it closer.

[@timothyjohnson4362]

I have an A220 and rear left steering cylinder is leaking. Can I fix this from outside the belly of the beast?

[@ericfraser7543]

Can you replace a roller bearings on the steering triangle without removing the whole assembly? my 863 version has a Allen key bolt securing the roller bearing, which is accessible, though looks like there is nut below it which may not be captured based on the parts diagram. Did not know if I try taking it apart if the nut will fall out without disassembling it first? The 863 has a hydraulic line running through the middle of its steering plate.

[@tetradgroup]

That has a center charge pump on it however you can still remove the plate and just spin it around the line and remove the triangles. That's going to be the easiest way.

[@ericfraser7543]

@@tetradgroup Yes, I figured that... I was just hoping it was going to be an easier fix without removing the steering plate and pulling the steering triangle...

[@rayankhan8361]

Great man

[@gregrupar135]

I have a f series 763. Lately my lift pedal get stuck going in the down position. All linkages look ok. Happens more when it was cold out. Valve is sticking ?

[@tetradgroup]

Sounds like an issue with float detent in valve. Remove the detent bonnet and see if that helps.

[@karlamerika6755]

I'm trying to find the correct procedure to set the steering geometry, are there any good videos? Special tools? Does it have to be in the air and running to find the neutral position?

[@tetradgroup]

Great question, no good videos that I've seen on the steering. I do have plans to make one. Best to have in the air and running and it can be done without special tools.

[@karlamerika6755]

@@tetradgroup thanks for the quick reply! I have limited time so I'm very thankful. I just got it in the air in hopes that it was the correct road to go down 👌 I saw another video of a tech doing that but no actual demonstration. So I'll try it and hope for the best

[@fatbastardwithabeard]

When you put the dust shield back on, you said the shaft was nearly worn out. Do you have to pull & disassemble the pump to replace that shaft or will it pull out the top like you mentioned the bearing pushing up due to hydro pressure?

[@tetradgroup]

The pintle shaft is part of the swash plate which requires a complete tear down to replace. I'll do a pump video soon.

[@fatbastardwithabeard]

Swash plate has to be replaced. T250 machine. Will the pump come out without pulling the engine or is it best to get the engine out of the way?

I appreciate your videos! I have a 743B. I was using it very roughly digging out a stump with a lot of tilting forward and backward of machine. Banging down sometimes. Now loader only goes up. Goes down extremely slowly. One time it went down normal if I shut off engine. Tilt doesn't move either. I suspect something in the spool valve. I don't mind paying for your assistance through email or phone if required. It may be spaced out so I thought I should contact you first for how that would work. Thank You, Duane

Tutti i problemi elettrici apparentemente risolti , rimane la scarsa forza di trazione e il fatto che fermandola in salita tende a scendere , il concessionario Bobcat ha collegato lo strumento di diagnosi e ha controllato la pressione di alimentazione che risulta perfettamente nei parametri (29,5 bar al massimo dei giri) almeno a freddo o comunque senza che abbia lavorato prima di collegare lo strumento, a questo punto chiedo qualche consiglio su cosa controllare, io avevo pensato ai motori di trazione, ho dato anche un occhiata al manuale e sulla parte idrostatica parla di sostituire in filtro idraulico (già sostituito anche questo), e di due filtri sfiato carter che non ho capito ne dove siano e neanche la loro funzione, mi sapresti aiutare?
