The Bobcat 773 typically requires a high-quality hydraulic fluid that meets the specification of ISO 46 or equivalent. It’s essential to use fluids that are designed for heavy-duty applications and can withstand high pressures and temperatures. Bobcat recommends using its own brand of hydraulic fluid or fluids that meet their specifications to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the hydraulic system. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific recommendations and requirements.
Yes, you can use universal hydraulic fluid in your Bobcat 773, but it's important to ensure that the fluid meets the specifications recommended by Bobcat. Check the owner's manual for the required viscosity and performance standards to ensure compatibility. Using the correct hydraulic fluid is crucial for optimal performance and to prevent potential damage to the hydraulic system. Always confirm that the universal hydraulic fluid is suitable for your specific equipment and operating conditions.
To check the hydraulic fluid level on a Bobcat 773, first park the machine on a level surface and turn off the engine. Locate the hydraulic fluid reservoir, usually marked with a cap labeled for hydraulic fluid. Remove the cap and use a dipstick or the internal markings to check the fluid level; it should be within the designated range. If needed, add the appropriate hydraulic fluid to reach the correct level.
No, you should not use just any type of hydraulic fluid in your Bobcat 773. It's important to use the specific hydraulic fluid recommended by the manufacturer, typically a high-quality hydraulic oil that meets the required specifications. Using the wrong fluid can affect performance and potentially damage the hydraulic system. Always check your operator's manual for the correct type of hydraulic fluid to ensure optimal operation and longevity of your equipment.
On a Bobcat 773, the hydraulic plug is typically located on the hydraulic reservoir or in the hydraulic system near the rear of the machine. It may be labeled, and you can usually find it on the left side of the machine, close to the hydraulic oil fill neck. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific locations and maintenance instructions.

Yes, you can use AW-32 hydraulic oil in a Bobcat 773, as it meets the viscosity requirements for many hydraulic systems. However, it's essential to check the owner's manual or manufacturer's specifications to ensure compatibility and to confirm whether any specific additives or oil types are recommended for optimal performance. Always ensure the hydraulic fluid is clean and free of contaminants before filling.
The best thing to use is the Bobcat "orange" Hydraulic fluid. Actually you dont use hydraulic fluid in a skid loader you need to use hydrostatic transmission fluid. Drive relief pressures are in excess of 5000 psi, the fluid needs to drive the machine as well as make the lift arm raise up and down. If you cant get the Bobcat stuff than use 10w30 or better MOTOR OIL. Dumping ISO 46 or AW32 can be a very costly mistake.
To change the hydraulic oil in a Bobcat 773, start by parking the machine on a level surface and ensuring the engine is off and cool. Remove the hydraulic oil tank cap, then place a suitable container under the tank to catch the old oil. Use a pump or siphon to drain the old hydraulic oil completely, then replace the oil filter if necessary. Finally, refill the tank with the appropriate hydraulic oil, check the fluid level, and run the machine briefly to circulate the oil before checking the level again.
the oil capacity for a bobcat 773 with oil filter is 7.5 quarts
Bobcat 773 service manual
The Bobcat 773 has a fuel capacity of 14 gallons (53 liters).
The hydrostatic fluid capacity of a Bobcat 773 is approximately 10 gallons (38 liters). This capacity is essential for the operation of the machine's hydrostatic transmission system, which allows for smooth and efficient movement. It's important to regularly check and maintain the fluid levels to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the equipment. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific maintenance guidelines.
