Stop, cool and clean engine of flammable materials before checking fluids. Never service or adjust loader with the engine running unless instructed to do so in the manual. Avoid contact with leaking hydraulic fluid or diesel fuel under pressure. It can penetrate the skin or eyes. Never fill fuel tank with engine running, while smoking or when near open flame.

Keep body, jewelry and clothing away from moving parts, electrical contact, hot parts and exhaust. Wear eye protection to guard from battery acid, compressed springs, fluids under pressure and flying debris when engines are running or tools are used. Use eye protection approved for type of welding. Keep rear door closed except for service. Close and latch door before operating the loader.

Lead-acid batteries produce flammable and explosive gases. Keep arcs, sparks, flames and lighted tobacco away from batteries. Batteries contain acid which burns eyes or skin on contact. Wear protective clothing. If acid contacts body, flush well with water. For eye contact flush well and get immediate medical attention.

Maintenance procedures which are given in the Operation & Maintenance Manual can be performed by the owner/ operator without any specific technical training. Maintenance procedures which are not in the Operation & Maintenance Manual must be performed ONLY BY QUALIFIED BOBCAT SERVICE PERSONNEL. Always use genuine Bobcat replacement parts.

963 Bobcat Loader Service Manual


FIRE PREVENTION The loader has several components that are at high temperature 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. Flammable debris (leaves, straw, etc.) must be removed regularly. If flammable debris is allowed to accumulate, it will increase the fire hazard. The loader must be cleaned as often as necessary to avoid this accumulation. Flammable debris in the engine compartment is a fire hazard when the loader is parked with a hot engine. The 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. • Do not use the Bobcat loader where exhaust, arcs, sparks or hot components can contact flammable material, explosive dust or gases. • The engine compartment and engine cooling system must be inspected every day and cleaned if necessary to prevent fire hazard and overheating. • Check all electrical wiring and connections for damage. Keep the battery terminals clean and tight. Repair or replace any damaged part. • Check fuel and hydraulic tubes, hoses and fittings for damage and leakage. Never use open flame or bare skin to check for leaks. Tighten or replace any parts that show leakage. Always clean fluid spills. Do not use gasoline or diesel fuel for cleaning parts. Use commercial nonflammable solvents. • Do not use ether or starting fluids on this engine. It has a glow plug. These starting aids can cause explosion and injure you or bystanders. • Always clean the loader and disconnect the battery before doing any welding. Cover rubber hoses, battery and all other flammable parts. Keep a fire extinguisher near the loader 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! • Use the procedure in the Operation & Maintenance Manual for connecting the battery. • 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. A fire extinguisher is available from your local dealer. The fire extinguisher can be installed in the location shown [A].

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM

A

Checking The Coolant Level Check the cooling system every day to prevent over–heating, loss of performance or engine damage. Open the rear door. Check the coolant level in the coolant recovery tank (Item 1) [A]. The coolant recovery tank must be 1/3 full. NOTE: The loader is factory filled with propylene glycol coolant. DO NOT mix propylene glycol with ethylene glycol. Add premixed coolant; 47% water and 53% propylene glycol to the recovery tank if the coolant level is low.

1

One gallon and one pint of propylene glycol mixed with one gallon of water is the correct mixture of coolant to provide a –34°F (–37°C) freeze protection. Use a refractometeror to check the condition of propylene glycol in your cooling system. Cleaning The Cooling System Raise the rear grill. Use air pressure or water pressure to clean the top of the oil cooler (Item 1) [B]. Raise the oil cooler and clean the top of the radiator (Item 2) [B].

SPARK ARRESTOR MUFFLER

A

Cleaning Procedure See SERVICE SCHEDULE Page 1–3 for service interval for cleaning the spark arrestor muffler. Do not operate the loader with a defective exhaust system.

1

N–16240

This loader is factory equipped with a U.S.D.A. Forestry Service approved spark arrestor muffler. It is necessary to do maintenance on this spark arrestor muffler to keep it in working condition. The spark arrestor muffler must be serviced by dumping the spark chamber every 100 hours of operation. If this machine is operated on flammable forest, brush or grass covered land, it must be equipped with a spark arrestor attached to the exhaust system and maintained in working order. Failure to do so will be in violation of California State Law, Section 4442 PRC.

When an engine is running in an enclosed area, fresh air must be added to avoid concentration of exhaust fumes. If the engine is stationary, vent the exhaust outside. Exhaust fumes contain odorless, invisible gases which can kill without warning.

Make reference to local laws and regulations for spark arrestor requirements.

W–2050–1285

Stop engine and allow the muffler to cool before cleaning the spark chamber. Wear safety glasses or goggles. Failure to obey can cause serious injury.

I–2022–0595

Stop the engine. Open the rear door.

W–2011–1285

Never use machine in atmosphere with explosive dust or gases or where exhaust can contact flammable material. Failure to obey warnings can cause injury or death.

Remove the plug (Item 1) [A] from the bottom of the muffler .

W–2068–1285

When the engine is running during service, the steering levers must be in neutral and the parking brake engaged. Failure to do so can cause injury or death. W–2006–0284

Start the engine and run for about 10 seconds while a second person, wearing safety glasses, holds a piece of wood over the outlet of the muffler. This will force contaminants out through the clean out hole. Stop the engine. Install and tighten the plug. Close the rear door.

TIRE MAINTENANCE

A

Wheel Nuts See the SERVICE SCHEDULE Page 1–3 for the service interval to check the wheel nuts. The correct torque is 320–350 ft.–lbs. (434–475 Nm) torque [A]. Tire Rotation Check the tires regularly for wear, damage and pressure. (See SPECIFICATIONS Page 9–1 for the correct tire pressure.) Rear tires usually wear faster than front tires. To keep tire wear even, move the front tires to the rear and rear tires to the front [B].

N–16244

B

It is important to keep the same size tires on each side of the loader. If different sizes are used, each tire will be turning at a different rate and cause excessive wear. The tread bars of all the tires must face the same direction. Recommended tire pressure must be maintained to avoid excessive tire wear and loss of stability and handling capability. Check for the correct pressure before operating the loader. Tire Mounting Tires are to be repaired only by an authorized person using the correct procedures and safety equipment. Tires and rims must always be checked for correct size before mounting. Check rim and tire bead for damage. The rim flange must be cleaned and free of rust. The tire bead and rim flange must be lubricated with a rubber lubricant before mounting the tire.

E–01655

Avoid excessive pressure which can rupture the tire and cause serious injury or death. During inflation of the tire, check the tire pressure frequently to avoid over inflation.

Do not inflate tires above specified pressure. Failure to use correct tire mounting procedure can cause an explosion which can result in injury or death. W–2078–1285

Inflate tires to the MAXIMUM pressure shown on the sidewall of the tire. DO NOT mix brands of tires used on the same loader. I–2057–0794
