Bobcat upgrades compact wheel loaders

Some of the features and options from the recently launched 75hp Bobcat L95 are now available on the 55hp L75 and 68hp L85.These include an improved version of the Advanced Attachment Control system, with new features designed to make the operator’s life easier. These include flex-drive, which allows the engine speed to be changed by a hand throttle, independently from the foot throttle (standard L85/option L75). The auto-idle function is also new. This shuts down the engine if the machine is not used for four seconds to save fuel.Both L75 and L85 are now available with a heated air suspension cloth seat. With a higher back rest, and a head rest, it includes an adjustable left-hand arm rest and a sensor to indicate if the operator is sitting down.Both models now come standard with improved forward-reverse joystick control response time, and improved lift and tilt (software can be downloaded to update current machines).There is also an improved version of the Automatic Ride Control option. The automatically activated loader boom suspension improves operator comfort and helps prevent material from spilling when driving with a bucket or pallet forks. The new system also provides more stability while raising or lowering the boom.Other new options for both loaders include high flow 100l/min hydraulics (pressure increased from 200 to 225 bar), and Power Bob-Tach implement attachment is now available on the L85.Bobcat compact range tops out with L95 – ProfiFor more up-to-date farming news click here and subscribe now to profi and save 47%.Share this: TwitterFacebookRedditWhatsApp Steven Vale
