the place i do snow removal for has one of these, its practically the same thing but its a 2003.. inside is identical besides the little red lights on the top right
Chant, before you replace that light I replaced all of the front and rear headlights on my S70 machines with LED lights, the difference is absolutely astounding , if you're interested I'll get you the part numbers for the front and the rear lights.
Ive ran a few sidewalk machines. This is the best machine if your in it for less than an hr because it turns on a dime. If your in a machine for a long time go with a compact tractor. We use kubota 2650's with blowers now because the guys are more comfortable using them and street legal. Chant you should see if you can try out a bobcat ct 2025 tractor. Same size as the kubota b2650. Trust me you would love it.
Great video Chant, CAT doesn't make a small enough skid steer like the s70, so instead I use my Toro dingo tx1000 with the 4 foot snowblower works really really well just no heat!
The gas gauge on my 440 (1980's version of the S70) is just a gas cap with a gauge built into it, much like the older snowmobiles. Is yours not the same?
That's what this one looks like. I grew up on a Farmboy, which is just like your 440 except for different decals and I think you have aux hydraulics (I don't). The Farmboy has two gas caps like the one in this video except doesn't have one with a gauge. It may have had it at one point though. Same family since 1985. Pretty impressive!
They look exactly like the Farmboy from the 80s I run. If it ain't broke, they won't fix it. It's enough machine for people that buy these and they don't sell enough of them to justify M-seriesing them. There's also no room for SJC controls, A/C components and so on.
Hello, did you have to put a block heater for the really cold days? I just purchased one and it didn’t come with one. Just wondering if you recommend one.
Are you still running the snow ex spreader? And I have a tgs 800 and ive had it this for 11 years and its been a great spreader for what I use it for and I'm sure it will great for you as well!

Just so ya know brotha..theres a company in Canada called Right Tracks that does make OTT tracks for the S70
Great video! Why do some people recommend going to a thinner tire on the S70? Many thanks!

I ran one for 6 hours straight, it was totally comfortable, but like he said, cold feet
I wonder why Bobcat has never updated this machine at all? Bring it up to spec like the other machines in the lineup

Great video chant this would be a great machine for just about anything
Thanks ! Yes it is
Hello! Is this bobcat s70 air-conditioned?
No
221 hours of usage in two years, how does that machine pay for itself?
They run about 18k
Please my friend.. get a tripod 🙏🏻 I’m dizzy 😵💫
Thanks for the review. No problems?
The only problem I had was broken thumb trigger inside cab . But nothing major mechanical. Great machine
