    Toolcat

    FWIW, Since my last posting I have purchased a third Toolcat, but was smart and had a hydraulic sample pulled before the purchase. This unit had a total of 211 hours on it and both drive moters were failing. The seller took the unit to the dealership (as I woulod not purchase without the...

    Toolcat

    VA, I may have misunderstood your previous post thinking that you had no power past the battery. If you have power at the fuse panel under the dash on the passenger side, then it is not the master fuse. In that fuse panel will be several relays plugged in along side the fuses. Pull and switch...

    VA, I'm assuming that your 07 is a 'C' or 'D' series..? If so things may be a little different as all of mine are 'B' series. If you have zero power getting to anything and have checked everything else, you might try checking the 100 amp master fuse. On my B series it is located immediately...

    Help - Case W11B Brakes

    Hi All! Thank you for the responses. The brakes on the W11B are hydraulic and not air like the W17 and larger case units. I have also 'backed' off the shoes at each wheel, which did not have any effect. I have again traced every brake line looking for any potential damage with no luck. Also...

    Help - Case W11B Brakes

    Hi, I have a Case W11B I use for snow removal. In the last series of storms, all four brakes locked up. After checking all of the brakes lines for any damage (i.e. crimped, crushed) and finding none I assumed the master was failing. After installing the new master cylinder (and bleeding...

    W11B Air Leak in Fuel Line

    I don't know how to explain it. I had been 'warned' that sitting foward of the center pins would be different and I would hate it, but after running it for a while I actually prefer it. Keep in mind that I'm using it for snow removal in mountainous terrain which is different than on a job...

    W11B Air Leak in Fuel Line

    LOL.... My Wife has a habit of filming anything and everything. I'll ask if she got it and has been afraid to tell me! Tim PS. I just told her about this post. If she has it filmed, I'm sure you will see it shortly...:-)

    W11B Air Leak in Fuel Line

    Thank You to all for the responses and suggestions! I will be devoting tomorrow to solving the mystery. I bought this unit last year and ran it through the 08/09 season. It replaced an older CAT 910. It took me about an hour to get used to the different controls, and 'sitting in front' of the...

    W11B Air Leak in Fuel Line

    Joe, Thank you very much for the response and suggestions! I will drag out the manual and start looking for the check valve and O ring locations. I believe that most of the fuel line (if not all of it) is new. I appreciate the help! Tim

    W11B Air Leak in Fuel Line

    I have searched but didn’t find anything that matches my specific issue. I’m by no ‘means’ a mechanic but have at times been forced to muddle through repairs. I live in a very rural area and have been trying to find someone knowledgeable to work on this loader for the last several months with no...

    Toolcat

    Bernie, My dealer had both units back to me within 36 hours but my situation was rather unique in that both TC's went down at the same time, and in the middle of a great big storm. I will say that 13 weeks does seem like a very long time. I'm wondering if they are having trouble getting the...

    Toolcat

    Very interesting... I have two (2) 'B' series Toolcats and other than the drive motor issues (which is a OEM supplier defect) they have been relatively trouble free. They are only used for Snow Removal and 98% of the time are run with Blowers. I purchase the first one in the fall of 2004 and...

    Toolcat

    Bernie, I would be very grateful if you would post an update on your drive motor issue. I'm very curious if you accidently received replacement motors that were 'faulty' from the box, or if this is going to be a repeat issue for the rest of us as well. Tim

    Toolcat

    Bernie, I can honestly tell you that my dealer had not even heard of the drive motor failures until I mentioned it. Just before I realized I had an 'issue' I noticed a 'D' series Toolcat (owned by a friend in town) being hauled off the hill by the dealer. I had called the service manager...

    Toolcat

    BernieG, Your post just about ruined my day. You are the first one I have heard of that has had two (2) different drive motor failures! I'm hoping that you have/are an isolated case. Unfortunately the Drive Motors (made by Comer) had a major defect in the 'sleeves' and after a period of...

    Toolcat

    A fully loaded (2 speed, cab, road-light kit/turbo, stereo, high flow) will run in the mid $40,000 range. I have two that are used strictly for snow removal with Blower units. The visibility is excellent and it is capable of 18 MPH. The "ride" is superior. In my old CAT after 18 or 20 hours I...

    Bobcat 721 Hydraulic Problems

    While I'm far from an expert on hydraulics I have two Bobcat 5600T Toolcats that experienced huge drive motor issues last winter. The drive motors (I believe) are made by Comer and there was a huge flaw in the sleeves in the motors. The first sign was a plugged filter. After removing the filter...

    Case W11B Window Dimensions?

    Thank you for the response and suggestion! I'll give that a try. It appears that the frame is riveted in...? Anyone have one of these window frames out before? Thank you again! Tim

    Case W11B Window Dimensions?

    Hi, I did a search and did not find anything. Does anyone know the dimensions of the sliding portion of the driver side door window on a W11B? Or, where I might find them? Window blew out when one of my driver closed the door. I live over two hours from a dealer and I'm trying to get a...
