Bobcat T62 Troubleshooting
The
Bobcat T62 compact track loader is powered by 146.5 cu.in (2.4L) Bobcat Doosan
D24 four-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine with a rated power of 68 hp (50.7
kW) at 2600 rpm. The Bobcat T62 is equipped with a single-speed or two-speed
hydrostatic transmission, vertical-lift loader boom, solid-mounted or torsion suspension
undercarriage, and rubber tracks. The hydraulic system has a pump with fluid
flow rate of 17.6 gpm (66.5 lpm). The hydraulic pressure is 3500 psi (241 bar).
The loader has a rated operating capacity of 2150 lbs (953 kg) and tipping load
of 6143 lbs (2786 kg). The lift height is 114.5" (2910 mm) to hinge pin, and
dump height is 94.3" (2395 mm).
