Our town utilities purchased one of these 5 years ago. (We upgrade every year). This is the most versatile machine I have ever operated. The money we saved in 3 years of snow plowing almost paid for this machine. 2 pickups and drivers took 10 hours versus 4.5 hours with one tool cat. The best money we ever sent. We plow snow, broom snow, clean up down trees and debris. 4-wheel steering is the best thing going. We will never be without one in the future.
How did you disconnect the back up alarm. My machine says I disconnected it but I did not I need the back up alarm to work. Do you know how to reactivate it?
I liked their comfort changes that they made which is all nice and good but in terms of performance, they missed the ball. All previous owners asked for a bit more power and a bit more strength. I do like that they added the fenders for the back. Hopefully they changed the steel providers as those machines used to rot through in like a year or two. Very nice versatile machine though. We have the same blower on our S76 and love it. The aggressive auger is very nice.
I remember back in 2005-6 when this was just a prototype. Only one was made( before production) and was at one of the companies for a photo-op. One of the 2nd shift fork lift operators wanted to see what it could do and the keys back in the day fit all bobcats. Well, when it came back in the frame was twisted/racked and the CV joint was on the ground. As you can imagine they were pretty pissed off when they seen what happened. The fork lift operator was fired and the supervisor was demoted to dayshift fork lift operator. Other then that, don't know anything more. Memories, lol
My Toolcat 5610 is the most used machine on the ranch. Most versatile machine I’ve ever owned. Can’t wait to upgrade to a new one. Might wait one year to see if they’ll increase the size of the screen and a few other things. Fantastic piece of equipment.
good video. why did you choose the UW56 model over the UW53? I know the UW56 has a hydraulic dump box but what's it good for? I haven't seen any videos of it being used beyond carrying some shovels. Seems not very useful to me, I'd probably go with the UW53.
Went for the UW56 because we had no need for a 3 point hitch and we use the box for hauling things like firewood and various items around the property.
@@mrbubetube yeah we usually split wood in one area then use the toolcat to bring the firewood up to the deck. Load the bucket and the box up and transport it up to deck
On your case drain line, the hose in the middle to power your blower, on the hose from the machine on the flat face coupler is the word flow with a arrow pointing to the blower on that coupler? I’m trying to figure out if someone put the wrong coupler on my blower. Any one else have this on theirs? Thanks.
Should mention how the front fender driving lights suck. They are nice and bright, but sit down so low that any attachment on the front blocks them. I wish they were just mounted up by the work lights.
Im just speculating but I imagine driving headlights probably can't be up that high or else they will blind other drivers on the road when your driving on a public road. Probably illegal to drive on a public road with the work lights on too. The lights work but you just have to remember to just lift the implement up high enough so its just off the ground
Thanks for the video. I'm seriously weighing up one of these instead of a CTL. Can the arm lift high enough to stack a 3rd round bale on top of 2, making the pyramid?
I’m not a farmer but yes I think you will be able to stack the 3rd round bale on top of two. I don’t have the bale forks attachment but I do have the regular forks, next time I have them on I’ll put it to max height and measure it for you.
Had the bobcat 3650 before. This is the first toolcat. I have only be able to get some first person iPhone videos of blowing light snow. Hasn’t snowed much here lately.
Yeah it was quite difficult to get at the connector for the back up beeper and then when we did it do it, it put up an error code on our screen which was annoying. Bobcat technician was over looking at something else and we told him about this and he was simply able to turn off the back up alarm via software which removed the error code.
Never owned a skid steer before but I can tell you the toolcat will be more comfortable getting in and out of. Toolcat is probably easier for maintenance because you can see the entire engine bay when lifting the box up. If you ever need to take a passenger obviously you can only do that in the toolcat. Sometimes I just run up to the corner store in the toolcat cause it’s just like driving a car. I imagine skid steer will be more maneuverable in tight areas and would be more construction site focused. Both have there advantages and disadvantages. You can use the same implements on both machines.
@@BigBodyPresence I just took delivery of my brand new Toolcat UW53 last week.... I ordered it in mid-Sept. I was originally told that I would be receiving it around Thanksgiving.
With all the options I wanted (no attachments) the MSRP was $84,000. I ordered, and paid for what the Toolcat 5610 was quoted to me at. $76,000 (less my trade in). About a month after I ordered the 5610... before it was built- Bobcat retooled and released the UW series and that technically superceded the Toolcat. I got lucky and ended up paying a 5610's cost but received a UW53.... 7 months later.
Definitely makes more sense for a business. We use it for snow plowing around town which covers the payments in the winter while also letting us use it for all our personal needs
Well I woiuld say it's much more than anyone other than farmers or businesses. I have never seen one anywhere around. I see a lot more skidsteers that are much cheaper than these are.
When you live on a mountain and plow guys want to charge you $400 PER plow for 6 inches and $25 extra per inch after let me tell you this would be kickass. I am still deciding.

Amazing to hear! We love ours too! Its like a Swiss Army knife so many functions

I think these are under rated... I really think they are super useful and versatile..... If I had a farm or large property I would def use one
Yes would be extremely useful on farm!

How much is one
Yeah would be nice if the screen was at least 8" or something
@@johncuervo3019 Sorry for the late reply. Now they're up in the $60-70K range depending on options.
Try 80k no attachments.
Can these move a full size 1500lb hay bale
nice need to get one , thanks for the show
Very awesome machine...great upgrades

@@BigBodyPresenceah, ok. ya that would be great for hauling firewood when you only need to move a small load at a time.

Is it worth getting a snowblower and a plow?

I’m trying to figure out if someone put the wrong coupler on my blower. Any one else have this on theirs? Thanks.
Considering this for purchase. would like to see more w/ different attachments. thanks
Im hoping my dealer can get some attachments in that I can rent. If I get any ill be sure to post more videos of them.
Does the snowblower float well? I bought an L23 and the machine wouldn't float worth a darn...had to constantly adjust the height.
floats perfectly, no issues at all
Show what this unit can do....???
I’d like to see the blower run if you wouldn’t mind.thinking about buying one but not sure if it’s justified with a hydraulic blower
Yeah I’ll try my best to get a good clip of it blowing. Supposed to snow this weekend. Works very well though.
What is the cost with the blower and machine ???

How much did you pay for it, I’m thinking about buying one?!?!?!
I want to buy mine new
Not cheap haha, price of a F150 Platnium. Worth it tho, we love the machine.
dumb question. nobody, not even Bobcat reveals the price of the toolcat. Bobcat will only reveal the price AFTER you commit to purchasing one.

The forks are 82” off the ground at max height
No, it won't lift that high. Can stack 2 high.
80k plus
Did you get videos blowing snow
And is this your first toolcat
Had the bobcat 3650 before. This is the first toolcat. I have only be able to get some first person iPhone videos of blowing light snow. Hasn’t snowed much here lately.
Does it have high flow? Is the snowblower hydraulic or PTO driven?
High flow hydraulic
Nice
What does something like this machplease let me know thank you very nice
We also have this machine and would love to shut off the back up beeper. Was it difficult to do?
Yeah it was quite difficult to get at the connector for the back up beeper and then when we did it do it, it put up an error code on our screen which was annoying.

@@BigBodyPresence Thank you for your reply
Hi Jordan, how does this do with wet sticky snow?
@@lynnb9991 slows down like any snowblower but I can say it’s significantly better than our old bobcat 3650
@@BigBodyPresence thank you, we just got word our snowblower is coming next week so I’m pretty excited.
Lets see some snow removal please , Im thinking of getting one .
How much just like this set up ?
I've been asking the same question on all the videos I've watched and no one ever answers.
$76,000

I have a 2008 Toolcat that I bought new. The four-wheel steering is super nice. You can do a tight circle on grass and not disturb it at all.
What dealership did you order it through and how long did you have to wait for it
Parry Sound Bobcat in Ontario, Canada. Took about 3 months

I have one for a hunting property. Works great. Swiss Army knife. Any video with a tool at always has pocket watchers for some reason. Funny.
Not bad but $69,000 USD...?
Yeah around that
$70k omg 💀
WTF the screen is almost the same size as my watch as this is yet another reason why I think this think is not worth it in my opinion
Yeah it is unfortunate the screen is so small, but at least it has one. It should be double or triple the size in my opinion.
