Performance Features

Turbo-Charged Performance: Select models are equipped with a turbo-charger that delivers consistently high performance and impressive low-end torque that never relents in higher altitudes.
Electronic Hydrostatic Transmission (E-HST): E-HST offers the simplicity and ease-of-direction change you get with HST – plus the electronic acceleration provides near-effortless input on the travel pedal to control your speed. It works like an automatic transmission in a car. It also includes true cruise control, to keep you moving at a constant speed. Even when driving up a slope, there's no need to adjust the travel pedal to maintain your momentum. Extra functionality includes an electronic linked pedal, speed limit switch and an anti-stall function that enables you to prevent engine stall during high-load operation. Read more about all Bobcat® compact tractor transmission options.
Independent PTO: Independent power take-off (PTO) allows you to simply flip a switch to engage or disengage the PTO without stopping the tractor or using the clutch. This comes in handy for tasks that require frequent stopping and restarting of your implement, including moving from one hole to the next as you use the auger.
Power Take-Off (PTO): Till your garden and plant a spring food plot. Clear weeds from the ditches and pastures. Dig holes for fence posts or trees in all types of soil conditions. Mow your acreage in an afternoon. You can do it all with power take-off (PTO). Rear PTO is standard on all Bobcat® compact tractors, and mid PTO is standard on select models and optional on all other models except on 4000 Platform models with a manual transmission. PTO coupled with the 3-point hitch allows you to operate numerous implements with ease.
Leading Drawbar Towing: Bobcat® compact tractors deliver leading drawbar towing power and force for heavy towing performance that beats many other tractor brands. The hitch is adjustable to provide towing flexibility and convenience.
Three-Point Hitch: The three-point hitch transforms your Bobcat® tractor into a do-it-all machine to mow, till, grade a driveway, rake debris and weeds, move snow, and more. It’s compatible with all Category 1 implements and includes features that make it easy to hook up implements.
Three Tire Options: Different jobs require different tires to ensure you're getting the best performance from your tractor. Bobcat offers three tire options to match the work you do, whether it's towing heavy loads and pulling implements, working on lawns, or working in a variety of ground conditions and applications that require more traction.
Maximum Maneuverability: Every day brings a new challenge on the farm or acreage. Bobcat® compact tractors offer maximum maneuverability to take on those challenges. Whether you need high clearance to get through rough terrain, four-wheel drive for extra traction or a tight turning radius to work around obstacles, you'll find the performance you need to get to the work.
Roll Over Protective Structure: A ROPS, standard on all non-cab models, is designed to protect the operator in the event of a rollover (when the ROPS is locked in the up position and the seatbelt is fastened). The foldable ROPS can be temporarily lowered when driving under trees, into garages or in other low-clearance areas.
Leading Lift Capacity: Count on excellent lift capacities to increase your implement capabilities and improve your performance. Many Bobcat® tractors offer the highest 3-point hitch lift capacity in their size.

Comfort Features

Deluxe Suspension Seat: Some days, you want to keep working until you’ve checked everything off your to-do list. A comfortable seat helps you stay in the tractor longer without feeling beat up at the end of the day. The deluxe suspension seat, available on select Bobcat® compact tractors, absorbs the vibration and bumps you experience on the job, maximizing your comfort. It’s fully adjustable to accommodate every operator and includes a foldable armrest on the right-hand side for extra comfort and support when you need it. So go ahead, finish the mowing, clean out the barn, plant a few more trees or clear out one more pasture. You’ll be comfortable no matter how long you stay out there.
Operator-Friendly Controls: Bobcat® compact tractors are designed to be easy to use with controls that help you do more work with less effort. Intuitive control levers are easy to use, and extras like power steering, cruise control and more help you operate the tractor and implements with confidence.
Work Lights: Work lights on Bobcat® compact tractors give you the visibility you need to keep going. Bright headlights illuminate the work in front of you, giving you high visibility in low light conditions. The LED tail lamp with a long bulb life makes sure you’re seen from behind as you travel around your acreage, trails or back roads.
Deluxe Enclosed Cab: Climb in the factory-installed enclosed cab, close the door and enjoy maximum comfort whether you’re mowing in the heat of summer or moving snow on a cold winter morning. Heat, air conditioning, panoramic visibility and other creature comforts come standard with the radio-ready cab.
True Cruise Control: Bobcat® electronic hydrostatic transmission (E-HST) tractors have got you covered, thanks to the true electronic cruise control feature that maintains a constant travel speed without travel-pedal input from you. Now you can plow through the project and make it look easy.
Linked Pedal Lever Option: The linked pedal option is available on tractor models starting at the 2000 Platform and above that have a hydrostatic or electronic hydrostatic transmission to increase engine rpm as you engage the travel pedal, for operation that feels similar to driving a car. This makes for intuitive front-end loader control and enhances the ease of use on a variety of other jobs.
Premium Comfort: When you’re comfortable, long days and a long list of projects are no problem. Bobcat® compact tractors are loaded with comfort features and easy-to-use controls so you can put in as many hours as you want to and not feel it the next day. Look for standard features, including ergonomic controls, suspension seat and low-noise, low-vibration engines, plus extras that make these machines easy to use and easy to enjoy.
