Another nice feature the Bobcat tractor has is Linked Pedal. It links the engine throttle to the hydrostat pedal position. The more pedal you give it the more throttle the engine gets. Very similar to your automobile.

Bobcat from the factory wires in the speakers, antenna and power for an easy plug and play radio option. It is a pretty simple installation, you'll just need to figure out what you want to do for a bezel. The factory cover plate would work if you are careful and plan ahead, otherwise there is a precut option available from the farm radio link below. https://amzn.to/3sKTSxq https://farmradiosupply.com/kioti_tractor_radio.html

The Bobcat Tractor Speed Limiter Switch limits the forward speed to a max speed of 3.1mph no matter the throttle setting or hydrostat pedal position at and past the 3.1mph point. You can still travel slower than 3.1mph just not above it.

Bobcat did a great job when it comes to making this tractor turn. There is virtually no need to ever have to use the brake pedals to assist a turn. Sorry about the wind noise. The wind seems to blow every day here.

Made it to the first 50hrs of ownership. It's time to change the Hydrostat and Hydraulic filters, check the brake pedal free play and check the alternator belt tension.

Bobcat tractors have a feature called Auto PTO or Power Take Off. It is a 2 position switch, up for Auto and down for Manual mode. In Auto mode you initially turn the PTO knob manually clockwise to turn the PTO on, after that it automatically shuts the PTO off when you raise the 3 point more than half way up and then automatically reengages it when lowered back down. In Manual mode you have to turn the PTO knob clockwise for On and counterclockwise for OFF.

There is a metal safety switch on the front of the right hand console that locks the joystick controls out of function. Push it in to lock and pull it out to function.

A brief walk around of a new Bobcat CT5555 compact tractor with FL9-5 front end loader. It's almost identical to the Kioti NX5510.
