Hello,
I have been searching the forums but cannot find anyone with the same issue. I have a bobcat T180 that is an amazing machine and has started to give me some issues.
The machine runs flawlessly however sometimes when i lift the seat bar mid operation and put it back down the tracks wont unlock even though all lights for unlocking have lit up and the lift and tilt cylinders begin to operate. Its almost as if the machine doesn't want to unlock the tracks only.
To get it out of this issue I just have to turn off the machine run a battery box and it goes away. The battery doesn't have any issues because its in the dead of winter and it is capable of starting the machine after sitting idle for weeks.
The workaround for this issue I have found is i turn the machine off before lifting the seat bar, and start it when I need to use it.
The alternator is also doing its job as I can operate the machine for hours non stop with no hiccups.
Any suggestions im super lost?
