FIRE PREVENTION

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT’D) Equipment Modifications Bobcat strongly recommends that operator’s do not install on the Bobcat Utility Vehicle, any equipment that may increase the speed or power of the vehicle, or make any other modifications to the vehicle for these purposes.

Any modifications to the original equipment of the utility vehicle create a substantial safety hazard and increase the risk of bodily injuries.

Maintenance The utility vehicle and some attachments and accessories 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.

The warranty on your Bobcat Utility Vehicle is terminated if any equipment has been added to the vehicle, or if any modifications have been made to the vehicle, that increases speed or power.

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.

Avoid Silica Dust

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.

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

Do not exceed Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL) to silica dust as determined by OSHA or other job site Rules and Regulations. Use a respirator, water spray or other means to control dust. Silica dust can cause lung disease and is known to the state of California to cause cancer.

Operation Do not use the utility vehicle where exhaust, arcs, sparks or hot components can contact flammable material, explosive dust or gases. Do not park this vehicle near open flames or pilot lights.

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

Fueling

Always clean the utility vehicle attachments and accessories, disconnect the battery, and disconnect the wiring from the Bobcat controllers before welding. Cover fuel tank, rubber hoses, battery and all other flammable parts. Keep a fire extinguisher near the utility vehicle when welding.

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

Toxic dust or gas can be produced.

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

Dust generated from repairing nonmetallic 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.

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

Fire Extinguishers Spark Arrestor Exhaust System The spark arrestor exhaust system is designed to control the emission of hot particles from the engine and exhaust system, but the muffler and the exhaust gases are still hot.

Check the spark arrestor exhaust system regularly to make sure it is maintained and working properly. Use the procedure in the Operation & Maintenance Manual for cleaning the spark arrestor muffler

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.

Pay special attention to the engine oil level. A rise in oil level during cold weather can indicate condensation collecting in the oil sump or crankcase due to the vehicle being operated for short periods and not allowing the engine to reach operating temperature. Change the engine oil immediately if the engine oil level begins to rise. Monitor the engine oil level and discontinue use if it continues to rise. See your Bobcat dealer to determine the cause.

Battery Charging

Battery Maintenance

Conventional Battery 1. Remove the battery from the vehicle to prevent damage from leaking or spilling electrolyte during charging. (See Removing And Installing Battery on Page 87.)

WARNING

2. Charge the battery with a charger output no larger than 1/10 of the battery’s amp/hr rating. Charge as needed to raise the specific gravity to 1.270 or greater.

AVOID INJURY OR DEATH Batteries contain acid which burns eyes and skin on contact. Wear goggles, protective clothing and rubber gloves to keep acid off body.

3. Reinstall the battery.

Sealed Battery

In case of acid contact, wash immediately with water.

In case of eye contact get prompt medical attention and wash eye with clean, cool water for at least 15 minutes.

The following battery charging instructions apply only to the installation of a sealed battery. Read all instructions before preceding with the installation of this battery.

The sealed battery is already filled with electrolyte and has been sealed and fully charged at the factory. Never pry the sealing strip off or add other fluid to this battery.

If electrolyte is taken internally drink large quantities of water or milk! DO NOT induce vomiting. Get prompt medical attention.

The single most important thing about maintaining a sealed battery is to keep it fully charged. Since the battery is sealed and the sealing strip cannot be removed, you must use a voltmeter or multimeter to measure DC voltage.

W-2065-0807

Figure 107

For a refresh charge, follow all the instructions below: 1. Check battery voltage with a voltmeter or a multimeter. A fully charged battery will register 12.8 V or higher.

2. If the voltage is less than 12.8 volts, recharge the battery at 1.3 amps or less until the battery voltage is 12.8 V or higher.

3. When using an automatic charger, refer to the charger manufacture’s instructions for recharging.

When using a constant current charger, use the following guidelines:

P-97388

Always verify the battery condition before and 1 - 2 hours after the end of charging.

Always clean the battery terminals and cable ends when installing a new or used battery [Figure 107].

CHARGE TIME STATE OF VOLTAGE CHARGE

Put grease on the battery terminals and cable ends to prevent corrosion.

Battery Storage Whenever the vehicle is not used for a period of 3 months or more, remove the battery from the vehicle, ensure that the battery is fully charged and stored out of the sun in a cool, dry place. Check battery voltage during storage and recharge as needed to maintain a full charge.

Bobcat recommends maintaining battery charge by using a Bobcat Battery tender charger or by charging about once a month to make up for normal self-discharge. The Battery Tender can be left connected during the storage period, and will automatically charge the battery if the voltage drops below a pre-determined voltage.

WHEEL TOE ALIGNMENT

Toe Adjustment

Inspection

Figure 134

The wheel toe alignment requires regular inspection and maintenance. (See SERVICE SCHEDULE on Page 60.)

Stop the machine on a flat level surface. Engage the parking brake and stop the engine.

Figure 133

1 254 mm (10.0 in) NA5216

NA5215

1. Turn the steering wheel so it is in the straight ahead position.

NOTE: Be sure the steering wheel is straight ahead before determining which tie rod needs adjustment.

2. Place a chalk mark (Item 1) [Figure 133] on the center of the front tires at approximately 254 mm (10 in) up from the floor (or as close to the centerline of the front axle as possible).

If the toe alignment is incorrect, measure the distance between the center of the vehicle and each wheel. This will determine which tie rod needs adjusting [Figure 134].

NOTE: It is important that the height of both marks be equally positioned to get an accurate measurement.

NOTE: During tie rod adjustment, make sure to use a wrench on both the tie rod end and the jam nut. Tie rod end damage could occur if the tie rod end is not held securely while loosening or tightening the tie rod jam nut.

3. Measure the distance between the marks and record this measurement. (We will call this dimension A.) 4. Disengage the parking brake and roll the vehicle ahead until the chalk marks are to the rear of the front tires (approximately at the centerline of the front axle).

Engage the barking brake.

1. Hold the tie rod end securely and loosen the jam nut.

2. Use a wrench on the flat spot on the tie rod and a wrench on the tie rod end. Rotate the tie rod to shorten or lengthen until the alignment is as required to achieve the proper toe setting.

5. Measure the distance between the chalk marks and record the dimension. (We will call this dimension B.)

3. When alignment is correct, hold the tie rod end securely and tighten the jam nut to 16 - 19 N•m (14 16 ft-lb) torque.

6. The difference between dimension A and B is the toe alignment. The recommended toe tolerance is 3,17 6,35 mm (0.125 - 0.25 in) to out. (This means the measurement “A” in front of the tire should be wider than the measurement “B” at the rear of the tire.

Toe Out

WARRANTY Bobcat Utility Vehicle Bobcat Company warrants to its authorized dealers and authorized dealers of Bobcat Equipment Ltd., who in turn warrant to the owner, that each new Bobcat Utility Vehicle will be free from proven defects in material and workmanship with respect to all components of the product except as otherwise specified herein for twelve (12) months or 1000 hours (whichever comes first). The foregoing time periods shall all commence after delivery by the authorized Bobcat dealer to the original buyer.

During the warranty period, the authorized Bobcat dealer shall repair or replace, at Bobcat Company's option, without charge for parts and labor, any part of the Bobcat product except as otherwise specified herein which fails because of defects in material or workmanship. The owner shall provide the authorized Bobcat dealer with prompt written notice of the defect and allow reasonable time for repair or replacement.

Bobcat Company may, at its option, require failed parts to be returned to the factory. Travel time of mechanics and transportation of the Bobcat product to the authorized Bobcat dealer for warranty work are the responsibility of the owner. The remedies provided in this warranty are exclusive.

This warranty does not apply to non Bobcat branded tires. The owner shall rely solely on the manufacturer’s tire warranty, if any. This warranty does not cover replacement of scheduled service items such as oil, filters, tune-up parts, other high-wear items or any damage caused by the use of non-Bobcat fluids and filters. This warranty does not cover accidental damage, air flow obstructions, normal wear and tear, abuse, improper handling, any vehicle that has been altered structurally, modified, neglected, improperly maintained, used for racing, or used for purposes other than for which it was manufactured, or for any damages which occur during trailer transit or as a result of unauthorized service or the use of unauthorized parts. In addition, this warranty does not cover damage to the following items if caused by fire, explosions or any other cause beyond Bobcat’s reasonable control: paint or finish, stress cracks, tearing or puncturing of upholstery material or corrosion.

THIS WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE AND IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EXCEPT THE WARRANTY OF TITLE. BOBCAT COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. IN NO EVENT SHALL BOBCAT COMPANY OR THE AUTHORIZED BOBCAT DEALER BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OR INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS, LOST PROFITS, OR LOSS OF MACHINE USE, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF BOBCAT COMPANY OR THE AUTHORIZED BOBCAT DEALER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS EXCLUSION OF SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT AND CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES IS INDEPENDENT FROM AND SHALL SURVIVE ANY FINDING THAT THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF BOBCAT COMPANY AND THE AUTHORIZED BOBCAT DEALERS WITH RESPECT TO THE PRODUCT AND SERVICES FURNISHED HEREUNDER SHALL NOT EXCEED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PRODUCT UPON WHICH SUCH LIABILITY IS BASED.

WARRANTY (CONT’D) In this emissions limited warranty, the term “Manufacturer” means Polaris Industries Inc. (Polaris) as the holder of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) Certificate of Conformity for the vehicle. The Emissions Limited Warranty is in addition to the standard limited warranty for your vehicle.

Emissions Limited Warranty The Manufacturer warrants that at the time it is first purchased, this emissions-certified vehicle is designed, built and equipped to conform with applicable U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) emission regulations for offroad recreational vehicles. The Manufacturer warrants that the vehicle is free from defects in materials and workmanship that would cause it to fail to meet these regulations.

The emissions warranty period for this emissions-certified vehicle starts on the date the vehicle is first purchased and continues for a period of 500 hours of engine operation, 5000 kilometers (3107 miles) of vehicle travel, or 30 calendar months from the date of purchase, whichever comes first.

This emissions limited warranty covers components whose failure increases the vehicle’s regulated emissions, and it covers components of systems whose only purpose is to control regulated emissions. Repairing or replacing other components not covered by this warranty is the responsibility of the vehicle owner. This emissions limited warranty does not cover components whose failure does not increase the vehicle’s regulated emissions.

For exhaust emissions, emission-related components include any parts related to engine control in the following systems: Air-induction system, Fuel system, Aftertreatment devices, Crankcase ventilation valves, Ignition system, Exhaust gas recirculation systems, Sensors and / or Electronic control units.

The following parts are considered emission-related components for evaporative emissions: Fuel Tank, Fuel Cap, Fuel Line, Fuel Line Fittings, Clamps*, Pressure Relief Valves*, Control Valves*, Control Solenoids*, Electronic Controls*, Vacuum Control Diaphragms*, Control Cables*, Control Linkages*, Purge Valves, Vapor Hoses, Liquid / Vapor Separator, Carbon Canister, Canister Mounting Brackets and / or Carburetor Purge Port Connector. (*As related to the evaporative emission control system.)

The exclusive remedy for breach of this limited warranty shall be, at the exclusive option of the Manufacturer, repair or replacement of any defective materials, components or products.

THE REMEDIES SET FORTH IN THIS LIMITED WARRANTY ARE THE ONLY REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO ANY PERSON FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY DESCRIPTION, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OR ANY OTHER CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER TORT OR OTHERWISE. ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE) ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE WARRANTY PERIOD DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE MANUFACTURER DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS WARRANTIES NOT STATED IN THIS WARRANTY. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation may not apply if it is inconsistent with the controlling state law.

This limited warranty excludes failures not caused by a defect in material or workmanship. This limited warranty does not cover damage due to accidents, abuse or improper handling, maintenance or use. This limited warranty does not cover any vehicle that has been structurally altered, or when the vehicle has been used in racing competition. This limited warranty also does not cover physical damage, corrosion or defects caused by fire, explosions or other similar causes beyond the control of the Manufacturer. Owners are responsible for performing the scheduled maintenance identified in the manual(s) and instruction(s) included with the vehicle. The Manufacturer may deny warranty claims for failures that have been caused by improper maintenance or use, by accidents for which the Manufacturer has no responsibility, or by acts of God. Any qualified repair shop or person may maintain, replace, or repair the emission control devices or systems on your vehicle. The Manufacturer recommends that you contact an authorized dealer or service center to perform any service that may be necessary for your vehicle. The Manufacturer also recommends that you use only Original Manufacturer parts. It is a potential violation of the Clean Air Act if a part supplied by an aftermarket parts manufacturer reduces the effectiveness of the vehicle's emission controls. Tampering with emission controls is prohibited by federal law.

If you have any questions regarding your rights and responsibilities under this emissions limited warranty, please contact the appropriate party in the order indicated: 1. Authorized vehicle dealer or service center 2. The Manufacturer’s Warranty Department at 1-888-704-5290
