maintenance

The Bobcat excavator is highly maneuverable and compact. It is rugged and useful under a wide variety of conditions. This presents an operator with hazards associated with off motorway, rough terrain applications, common with Bobcat excavator usage.

The Bobcat excavator has an internal combustion engine with resultant heat and exhaust. All exhaust gases can kill or cause illness so use the excavator with adequate ventilation.

The dealer explains the capabilities and restrictions of the Bobcat excavator and attachment for each application. The dealer demonstrates the safe operation according to Bobcat instructional materials, which are also available to operators. The dealer can also identify unsafe modifications or use of unapproved attachments.

The attachments and buckets are designed for a Rated Lift Capacity. They are designed for secure fastening to the Bobcat excavator. The user must check with the dealer, or Bobcat literature, to determine safe loads of materials of specified densities for the machine attachment combination.

The following publications and training materials provide information on the safe use and maintenance of the Bobcat machine and attachments: •

The Delivery Report is used to assure that complete instructions have been given to the new owner and that the machine and attachment is in safe operating condition.

•

The Operation & Maintenance Manual delivered with the machine or attachment gives operating information as well as routine maintenance and service procedures. It is a part of the machine and can be stored in a container provided on the machine.

Replacement Operation & Maintenance Manuals can be ordered from your Bobcat dealer.

•

Machine signs (decals) instruct on the safe operation and care of your Bobcat machine or attachment. The signs and their locations are shown in the Operation & Maintenance Manual. Replacement signs are available from your Bobcat dealer.

•

An Operator’s Handbook is fastened to the operator cab of the excavator. Its brief instructions are convenient to the operator. See your Bobcat dealer for more information on translated versions.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT’D)

FIRE PREVENTION

Avoid Silica Dust

Maintenance The machine and some attachments have components that are at high temperatures under normal operating conditions. The primary source of high temperatures is the engine and exhaust system. The electrical system, if damaged or incorrectly maintained, can be a source of arcs or sparks.

Cutting or drilling concrete containing sand or rock containing quartz may result in exposure to silica dust.

Use a respirator, water spray or other means to control dust.

Flammable debris (leaves, straw, etc.) must be removed regularly. If flammable debris is allowed to accumulate, it can cause a fire hazard. Clean often to avoid this accumulation. Flammable debris in the engine compartment is a potential fire hazard.

The operator’s area, engine compartment and engine cooling system must be inspected every day and cleaned if necessary to prevent fire hazards and overheating.

All fuels, most lubricants and some coolants mixtures are flammable. Flammable fluids that are leaking or spilled onto hot surfaces or onto electrical components can cause a fire.

Operation Do not use the machine where exhaust, arcs, sparks or hot components can contact flammable material, explosive dust or gases.

Electrical

Check all electrical wiring and connections for damage.

Keep the battery terminals clean and tight. Repair or replace any damaged part or wires that are loose or frayed.

Battery gas can explode and cause serious injury. Use the procedure in the Operation & Maintenance Manual for connecting the battery and for jump starting. Do not jump start or charge a frozen or damaged battery. Keep any open flames or sparks away from batteries. Do not smoke in battery charging area.

FIRE PREVENTION (CONT’D)

Welding And Grinding

Hydraulic System

Always clean the machine and attachment, disconnect the battery, and disconnect the wiring from the Bobcat controllers before welding. Cover rubber hoses, battery and all other flammable parts. Keep a fire extinguisher near the machine when welding.

Check hydraulic tubes, hoses and fittings for damage and leakage. Never use open flame or bare skin to check for leaks. Hydraulic tubes and hoses must be properly routed and have adequate support and secure clamps.

Tighten or replace any parts that show leakage.

Have good ventilation when grinding or welding painted parts. Wear dust mask when grinding painted parts.

Toxic dust or gas can be produced.

Always clean fluid spills. Do not use petrol or diesel fuel for cleaning parts. Use commercial non-flammable solvents.

Dust generated from repairing non-metallic parts such as hoods, fenders or covers can be flammable or explosive.

Repair such components in a well ventilated area away from open flames or sparks.

Fueling

Fire Extinguishers

Stop the engine and let it cool before adding fuel. No smoking! Do not refuel a machine near open flames or sparks. Fill the fuel tank outdoors.

Starting Do not use ether or starting fluids on any engine that has glow plugs or air intake heater. These starting aids can cause explosion and injure you or bystanders.

Know where fire extinguishers and first aid kits are located and how to use them. Inspect the fire extinguisher and service the fire extinguisher regularly.

Obey the recommendations on the instructions plate.

Use the procedure in the Operation & Maintenance Manual for connecting the battery and for jump starting.

OPERATING PROCEDURE

Lowering The Work Equipment (Engine STOPPED)

Inspect The Work Area

The hydraulic control levers control the movement of the boom, arm, bucket and upperstructure slew functions.

Before beginning operation, inspect the work area for unsafe conditions.

The console must be in the locked down position and the key switch in the ON position.

Look for sharp drop-offs or rough terrain. Have underground utility lines (gas, water, sewer, irrigation, etc.) located and marked. Work slowly in areas of underground utilities.

Use the control lever (joystick) to lower the boom.

Figure 102

Remove objects or other construction material that could damage the excavator or cause personal injury.

Always check ground conditions before starting your work: •

Inspect for signs of instability such as cracks or settlement.

•

Be aware of weather conditions that can affect ground stability.

•

Check for adequate traction if working on a slope.

P-86320

Basic Operating Instructions When operating on a public road or motorway, always follow local bylaws. For example: A slow moving vehicle (SMV) sign, or direction signals may be required.

The console lock switch disengages the hydraulic control functions from the joysticks when the console is raised [Figure 102].

Run the engine at low idle speed to warm the engine and hydraulic system before operating the excavator.

NOTE: If the engine stops, the boom / bucket (attachments) can be lowered to the ground using hydraulic pressure in the accumulator.

IMPORTANT

The control console must be in the locked down position, and the key switch in the ON position.

Machines warmed up with moderate engine speed and light load have longer life.

Use the control lever (joystick) to lower the boom.

I-2015-0284

Lower the control console lock lever to engage the hydraulic control functions of the joysticks [Figure 102].

New operators must operate the excavator in an open area without bystanders. Operate the controls until the excavator can be handled at an efficient and safe rate for all conditions of the work area.

Operating Near An Edge Or Water Keep the excavator as far back from the edge as possible and the excavator tracks perpendicular to the edge so that if part of the edge collapses, the excavator can be moved back.

Always move the excavator back at any indication the edge may be unstable.

Recommended Position For Working On A Slope

Reverse

P-86220A

To brake the machine when going down a slope, move the steering levers (Item 1) [Figure 123] to the NEUTRAL position. This will engage the hydrostatic braking.

B-19935

When operating on a slope, level the work area before beginning [Figure 122].

When the engine stops on a slope, move the steering levers to the neutral position. Lower the boom/bucket to the ground.

If this is not possible, the following procedures should be used:

NOTE: If the engine stops, the boom / bucket (attachments) can be lowered to the ground using hydraulic pressure which is stored in the accumulator.

Do not work on slopes which are over 15 degrees.

Use a slow work cycle.

The console must be in the locked down position, and the key switch in the ON position.

Avoid working with the tracks across the slope. This will reduce stability and increase the tendency for the machine to slide. Position the excavator with the blade downhill and lowered.

Use the control lever to lower the boom.

Avoid swinging or extending the bucket more than necessary in a down hill direction. When you must swing the bucket downhill, keep the arm low and skid the bucket downhill.

Start the engine and resume operation.

When working with the bucket on the uphill side, keep the bucket as close to the ground as possible. Dump the spoil far enough away from the trench or hole to prevent the possibility of a cave in.

OPERATING PROCEDURE (CONT’D) Operating In Water Mud and water should be removed from the machine before parking. In freezing temperatures, park the machine on boards or concrete to prevent the track or undercarriage from freezing to the ground and preventing machine movement.

Figure 124

Maximum Water Level

B-16664

Do not operate or immerse the excavator in water higher than the bottom of the swing bearing [Figure 124].

Grease the excavator when it has been operated or immersed in water for a period of time. Greasing forces the water out of the lubrication areas.

Water must be removed from the cylinder rods. If water freezes to the cylinder rod, the cylinder seals can be damaged when the rod is retracted.

Figure 127

OPERATING PROCEDURE (CONT’D) Avoiding Track Damage Mud and water should be removed from the machine before parking. In freezing temperatures, park the machine on boards or concrete to prevent the track or undercarriage from freezing to the ground and preventing machine movement.

Some cause of track damage: Figure 125

PI-13035 B-17824

Incorrect track tension: When the rubber track is detracting, the idler or sprocket rides on the projections of the embedded metal [Figure 125] causing the embedded metal to be exposed to corrosion. (See TRACK TENSION on Page 125.)

When rubber tracks drive over sharp projections, intensive stress is applied to the lug side rubber surface, especially at the edges of embedded metals, causing cracks and cuts in the area around the embedded metals [Figure 127].

If rubber track is clogged with stones or foreign objects, these can get wedged between the sprocket / rollers and cause detracting and track stress.

Avoid extensive stress applied to the lug root where metals are embedded. Operators should try to avoid driving over stumps and ridges.

When moisture invades through cuts on the track, the embedded steel cords will corrode. The deterioration of the design strength may lead to the breaking of the steel cords.

Figure 126 Cuts

PI-13045

When rubber tracks drive over projections or sharp objects in the field, the concentrated forces applied cause cuts on the lug side rubber surface [Figure 126]. In case of making turns on projections, the lug side rubber surface will have an even higher chance to be cut. If the cuts run through the embedded steel cords, it might result in the steel cords' breakage due to their corrosion.

Avoid quick turns on bumpy and rocky fields.

Driving over sharp objects should be avoided. If this is impossible, do not make turns while driving over sharp objects.

FUEL SYSTEM

Biodiesel Blend Fuel

Use only clean, high quality diesel fuel, Grade No. 2 or Grade No. 1 with a cetane number of 45 or higher.

Biodiesel blend fuel has unique qualities that should be considered before using in this machine:

The following is a suggested blending guideline which should prevent fuel gelling problems during freezing temperature:

•

Cold weather conditions can lead to plugged fuel system components and hard starting.

•

Biodiesel blend fuel is an excellent medium for microbial growth and contamination which can cause corrosion and plugging of fuel system components.

•

Use of biodiesel blend fuel may result in premature failure of fuel system components, such as plugged fuel filters and deteriorated fuel lines.

•

Shorter maintenance intervals may be required, such as cleaning the fuel system and replacing fuel filters and fuel lines.

•

Using biodiesel blended fuels containing more than five percent biodiesel can affect engine life and cause deterioration of hoses, tubelines, injectors, injector pump and seals.

At a minimum, low sulfur diesel fuel must be used in this machine. Low sulfur is defined as 500 mg/kg (500 ppm) sulfur maximum.

The following fuels may also be used in this machine: •

Ultra low sulfur diesel fuel. Ultra low sulfur is defined as 15 mg/kg (15 ppm) sulfur maximum.

•

Biodiesel Blend Fuel - Must contain no more than five percent biodiesel mixed with low sulfur or ultra low sulfur petroleum based diesel. This is commonly marketed as B5 blended diesel fuel.

Apply the following guidelines if biodiesel blend fuel is used:

WARNING AVOID INJURY OR DEATH Stop and cool the engine before adding fuel. NO SMOKING! Failure to obey warnings can cause an explosion or fire.

W-2063-0807

WARNING AVOID INJURY OR DEATH Always clean up spilled fuel or oil. Keep heat, flames, sparks or lighted tobacco away from fuel and oil.

Failure to use care around combustibles can cause explosion or fire.

•

Ensure the fuel tank is as full as possible at all times to prevent moisture from collecting in the fuel tank.

•

Ensure that the fuel tank cap is securely tightened.

•

Biodiesel blend fuel can damage painted surfaces, remove all spilled fuel from painted surfaces immediately.

•

Drain all water from the fuel filter daily before operating the machine.

•

Do not exceed engine oil change interval. Extended oil change intervals can cause engine damage.

•

Before vehicle storage; drain the fuel tank, refill with 100% petroleum diesel fuel, add fuel stabilizer and run the engine for at least 30 minutes.

NOTE: Biodiesel blend fuel does not have long term stability and should not be stored for more than three months.

E60 Operation & Maintenance Manual

FLASHING PATTERNS OF ENGINE CHECK LAMP When detecting these failures, the E-ECU (Engine control unit) flashes the engine check lamp to alert the operator to the occurrence of failure conditions. The engine check lamp will illuminate for 2 seconds when the E-ECU is power on. This allows checking if the E-ECU is supplied with power normally.

Flashing patterns of the engine check lamp are shown in [Figure 228]. When accelerator sensor failure (flashing 5 time) and EGR valve failure (flashing 1-3 times) occur, the engine check lamp flashes as shown in [Figure 228]. When two or more failures have occurred simultaneously, the engine check lamp scrolls through all the failure modes, then repeats.
