Read articles →An owner-operator walking through his own 50-hour service on a new CT2025 he's already put heavy hours on. Covers the manual-required items, front differential fluid, hydraulic and hydrostat filter swap with fluid replacement, brake free-play check with specs, and wheel torque, plus his self-added early engine oil change, backed by oil-sample data from a previous Bobcat. Drain plug sizes, fill locations, and fluid capacities are all called out. Best for CT2025 owners doing this service themselves.
An owner-operator sharing hands-on experience, including oil analysis data from prior Bobcat ownership, with no evident dealership or brand affiliation.
The brake free play should be between 0.8 and 1.2 inches of travel, measured by pushing on the brake until you feel resistance and measuring the distance.
Rear tires should be torqued to 144 to 166 foot-pounds, and the front tires should be torqued to 57 to 67 foot-pounds.
The manual calls for the first oil change at 400 hours, but the owner recommends doing it at 50 hours instead, based on oil sample results from a previous Bobcat showing elevated metals at 200 hours.
The hydraulic system holds just under six gallons, and the front differential holds 6.3 quarts of 80/90 weight oil, the same capacity as the engine oil with filter.
