We have a Bobcat 72" vibratory compactor that needs bearings. Only procedure I have found says, 1- remove frame, 2-remove hydraulic motor. Well taking that motor isn't so easy. Its unbolted, but somehow locked to the shaft. Is there a clip or connection I don't know about? I took the motor apart, and it appears that one of the gears is a drive gear which comes right out. The other must drive the drum which is locked to the drum shaft somehow. Diagrams don't tell me anything, and the bobcat dealers have never worked on one. Any help is greatly appreciated. Most Bobcat rollers were Bradco, and it looks like one, but no model or ID plate.
