- It took me awhile to find just the right Over the Tire Tracks (OTT) for my bobcat. After a lot of research I decided to try McLaren tracks! I will never get stuck in the loose dirt and or mud again. This video shows you how to install these tracks on my bobcat. Check out my other video that took place two days later, when I blew the tire out and how I dealt that deep in the woods. Heck you might as well just subscrible to this channel if you want to follow my bobcat/ skidsteer adventures. I'm installing a backup camera next.
I've never turned the adjuster on a crescent wrench the correct direction either!!
I've got a Barko/Bobcat 1080. It is a big machine (21,000lbs including a Timbco saw head) with 15x19 tires and big tracks. That tensioner looks like a great idea, I've put the tracks on many times without one and it is a job and a half. The tracks sure help avoid getting stuck but in mud it is still easy to bury it.
Lol was looking at adding these to my 763 I've not long had. Didn't look to bad to fit, thanks for the walk through
Thanks Jon, they sure do work great, but they tear up a wet yard like crazy!
My first investment before i get tracks for my skidsteer will be the solid tires, im used to my track loader and never being concerned about it so i will eliminate that as a problem first lol
Take a rope run it over tires, like the way tracks go. Then stretch it out and place along tracks. Shorten tracks to that length. Saves a lot of cussing.
I bought high flotation tracks for my Bobcat S300. Everything was great until it snowed. They compacted the snow inside the track pads and very quickly the tracks where so tight that the wheels could not turn. How are yours in the snow?
Any problems with the tires spinning, slipping in the tracks??
should buy some new footplate cleanout covers since you can afford new tracks that cost more than the bobcat itself.
impact would make light work
Much quicker using a short ratchet strap
…then I put the Bobcat in reverse and pushed on the throttle and went backwards.
If you get stuck…you have a bucket. Use it to get yourself out.
Invest in an impact.
Lol..hobby farmer.
That’s an adjustable wrench, not a crescent.
We always call it a crescent wrench.
The American tool company Crescent founder was the original inventor of the adjustable wrench in Sweden. That is where the name Crescent Wrench comes from.
