Description Figure 29
The Bobcat telescopic handler has an operator cab

(ROPS / FOPS) as standard equipment to protect the
operator. The seat belt must be worn for ROPS / FOPS 1
protection.
Check the ROPS / FOPS cab, mounting, and hardware

for damage. Never modify the ROPS / FOPS cab.

STEERING MODE SELECTION
Aligning Modes
To switch between the different steering modes (See

HANDLER on Page 61.) the operator has a choice
between two aligning modes:
• In manual aligning mode, the operator has to make

sure the front and rear wheels are straightened before
selecting the desired steering mode.
• In semi-automatic aligning mode (if equipped), the

operator first has to choose the desired steering mode
and will then receive instructions on which wheels
need to be aligned. Once the wheel alignment
instruction(s) (indicated by the flashing of the Front or
Rear Wheel Straight indicator light) are followed, the
chosen steering mode will be automatically activated.

BACK-UP ALARM SYSTEM Operation
This machine may be equipped with a back-up alarm.
Description WARNING
Figure 48
• Always keep bystanders away from the work area
and travel path.
• The operator must always look in the direction of
travel.
• The back-up alarm must sound when operating
1 the machine in the reverse direction.
W-2783-0409
The back-up alarm will sound when the operator

prepares the telescopic handler for reverse travel. (See

If alarm does not sound, see inspection and maintenance

P119156 instructions for the back-up alarm system in the
preventive maintenance section of this manual. (See
BACK-UP ALARM SYSTEM on Page 135.)
The back-up alarm (Item 1) is located at the rear of the
machine and can be accessed through an opening (Item
2) [Figure 48] in the frame.
A back-up alarm is not a substitute for looking to the

rear when operating the telescopic handler in
reverse, or for keeping bystanders away from the
work area. Operators must always look in the direction
of travel, including reverse, and must also keep
bystanders away from the work area, even though the
telescopic handler is equipped with a back-up alarm.
Operators must be trained to always look in the direction

of travel, including when operating the telescopic
handler in reverse and to keep bystanders away from
the work area. Other workers should be trained to always
keep away from the operator’s work area and travel path.

SEAT BELT Figure 162
Inspection And Maintenance 1
WARNING 3
Failure to properly inspect and maintain the seat belt

can cause lack of operator restraint resulting in
serious injury or death.
W-2466-0703
Check the seat belt daily for correct function. 2 4
Inspect the seat belt system thoroughly at least once

each year or more often if the machine is exposed to
severe environmental conditions or applications.
Any seat belt system that shows cuts, fraying, extreme or

unusual wear, significant discolourations due to
ultraviolet UV exposure, dusty / dirty conditions, abrasion
to the seat belt webbing, or damage to the buckle, latch
plate, retractor (if equipped), hardware or any other
obvious problem should be replaced immediately.
B-22283
The items below are referenced in [Figure 162].
1. Check the webbing. If the system is equipped with a

retractor, pull the webbing completely out and inspect
the full length of the webbing. Look for cuts, wear,
fraying, dirt and stiffness.
2. Check the buckle and latch for correct operation.

Make sure latch plate is not excessively worn,
deformed or buckle is not damaged or casing broken.
3. Check the retractor web storage device (if equipped)

by extending webbing to determine if it looks correct
and that it spools out and retracts webbing correctly.
4. Check webbing in areas exposed to ultraviolet (UV)

rays from the sun or extreme dust or dirt. If the original
colour of the webbing in these areas is extremely
faded and / or the webbing is packed with dirt, the
webbing strength can have deteriorated.
See your Bobcat dealer for seat belt system replacement

parts for your machine.

LLMC CALIBRATION TEST Figure 164
Procedure
The Longitudinal Load Moment Control (LLMC) system

ALTERNATOR BELT Figure 242
Belt Adjustment
The alternator belt is a special maintenance free type

that is pretensioned over the pulleys. This belt eliminates
the need for tensioning device and does not require
periodic adjustment. Refer to the service schedule (See
SERVICE SCHEDULE on Page 129.) and contact your
Bobcat dealer for replacement parts. 2 2

tyre will be turning at a different rate and cause excessive
wear. The tread bars of all the tyres must face the same
direction.
Recommended tyre pressure must be maintained to

avoid excessive tyre wear and loss of stability and
handling capacity. Check for the correct pressure before
operating the telescopic handler.

MAINTENANCE CLOCK
Description
The Maintenance Clock alerts the operator when the next

service interval is due. EXAMPLE: The Maintenance
Clock can be set to a 250 hour interval as a reminder for
the next 250 hour planned maintenance.

During machine operation, a two beep alarm will sound

when there are less than 10 hours until the next planned
maintenance.
The remaining hours (Item 1) before maintenance is

required will appear on the display screen for five
seconds while the service icon (Item 3) and sandglass
icon (Item 2) [Figure 270] flash.
NOTE: The display will show negative numbers after

counting down to zero.
The display screen will then revert back to the previous

menu and will appear for five seconds every time the
machine is started until the maintenance clock is reset.
