Attachment Control Device: In simplest terms, the optional Attachment Control Device makes it possible for the loader and attachment to communicate.

Bob-Tach®: Change attachments in less than a minute! You can replace a bucket with a pallet fork, landscape rake, auger, grapple, and more than 70 Bobcat attachments quickly and easily with the Bob-Tach® mounting system. See why the Bob-Tach® attachment mounting system is the industry’s best. Watch the side-by-side Bobcat Advantage Quick-Tach Comparison video.

Control in Your Hands: With Bobcat compact track loaders, you can feel and control the loader’s drive, engine torque and tractive effort—so you can push your machine to the limit without an engine anti-stall system robbing you of power when you need it the most.

Counterweight Ready: The new Bobcat loaders come with holes for frame-mounted counterweights, so you can increase lifting performance with certain attachments.

Faster Cycle Times: Hydraulic pumps in Bobcat loaders are matched to cylinder size and loader lift capacity to provide fast cycle times that help you get the job done faster.

High-Flow Hydraulics: Need more attachment power? This optional system provides additional hydraulic power to boost production of attachments.

Hydraulic Bucket Positioning: Optional hydraulic bucket positing keeps your bucket level when raising lift arms, reducing spillage and allowing you to work more efficiently.

More Torque: Bobcat loaders reach maximum torque at a lower RPM to minimize stalling and save time and fuel.

Power Bob-Tach® Powered Mounting System: Change non-hydraulic attachments from the comfort of your cab - with the flip of a switch. You can swap a bucket with pallet forks without ever leaving your seat with the optional Power Bob-Tach® mounting system.

Powerful Breakout Forces: High-efficiency hydraulic pumps deliver more power, matched to demand and providing breakout forces. Bobcat loaders have unmatched lift breakout. Watch the results in the Bobcat Advantage Lift Breakout Challenge video.

Quick Couplers with Pressure Release: By simply pushing the coupler inward, the hydraulic oil is released through a return line back into the machine. The result is clean, quick attachment changes time after time.

Quicker Turning: Bobcat's weight distribution has been designed for the best turning and skidding to deliver ideal performance. This quick turning reduces fuel consumption and power requirements from the engine, increasing the life of drive train.

Remote Control: All loaders equipped with Selectable Joystick Control or All Wheel Steer can be operated by the optional Radio Remote Control. Bobcat Company is the first and only company to introduce a new way to operate your equipment without having to have an operator in the cab. This is a smart solution for hot, dusty environments or on jobs where you’d rather be outside of the machine.

Ride Control Option: Optional ride control is the cushioning of the loader lift circuit, which helps increase the smoothness of the ride.

Roller Suspension: Bobcat's optional Roller Suspension is the first suspension system for compact track loaders that uses an all steel design for increase durability, as well as the only suspension for the more durable steel inbed tracks. What makes the Roller Suspension system the best choice for a smoother ride? Watch the Bobcat Advantage Suspension Comparison video.

Selectable Joystick Controls: Optional SJC allows you to operate the machine with only your hands. You can easily switch between, “ISO” pattern, where the left joystick operates the drive functions and the right joystick controls the workgroup, or “H” pattern with a dash-mounted rocker switch inside the cab.

Stronger Hydraulics: Hydraulic systems have been re-engineered to maximize performance – working faster and stronger to increase operator performance. The Bobcat engine, hydraulic pump, horsepower and cubic-inch displacement are configured precisely for each model’s specific operating capacity. Bobcat loaders offer the best hydraulic system on the market. Watch them perform in the Bobcat Advantage Hydraulic Power Challenge, Lift Breakout Challenge, Pushing Force Challenge and Hydraulic Multifunction Challenge videos.

Transverse Engine/Belt Drive: Thanks to the Bobcat belt-drive system, loader engines can run slower, resulting in a quieter machine that lasts longer. This belt-drive system allows Bobcat loaders to use an optimized engine-to-pump package, making it more efficient.

Radius Lift Path: Radius lift path provides maximum reach at truck bed height. Arm movement forms an arc that delivers a better reach than at flatbed truck height. A radius lift path excels in jobs at mid-range heights, like dumping over a wall, backfilling or unloading flatbed trucks.
