Available now, Bobcat®
M-Series loaders with the optional deluxe
instrumentation panel have more job-enhancing features to improve operator productivity. The new panel monitors key loader functions, communicates alerts and provides additional attachment information to track usage.
Deluxe instrumentation has been available to Bobcat loader customers for many years. These are new features available only in M-Series skid-steer and compact track loaders and only with the deluxe instrumentation panel upgrade.
Display panel A new 5-inch, full-color LCD
screen provides better readability and interaction. The operator can quickly interpret the loader’s diagnostics from an easy-to- read virtual sweep gauge. The display panel monitors 14 major loader functions and provides troubleshooting suggestions. A text description tells when a warning occurred and can be set to show which operator was assigned to the machine.
Enhanced attachment details
New M-Series deluxe instrumentation has descriptions of many Bobcat attachments, and select attachments can communicate with the deluxe instrumentation for improved productivity. They include laser- guided graders, laser-guided box blades, wheel saws, tree spades and planer attachments. Additionally,
a job clock associated with the attachment screen monitors the attachment usage.
Laser-guided attachment improvements With the laser-guided
attachments, operators can make minor grade adjustments without leaving the cab — they can make an adjustment on the screen to adjust to the desired grade. Operators can monitor the attachment, receivers and transmitter on the LCD screen, making them more productive.
Tree spade attachment operators can monitor active blades and gates and change auto-dig and easy-dig settings. The new instrumentation also keeps track of the number of trees dug with a counter on the spade.
Another attachment that benefi ts
from the new panel is the planer, including the 18-, 24- and 40-inch models. A cumulative hour meter and two resettable job clocks can monitor the planer’s cutting bit life to help the operator know when to replace bits.
