Part of the Compact Track Loader range from Bobcat, the T650 is a vertical-lift-path loader which excels in limited space, when stacking high is required (such as palletised material). Like all Bobcat products, however, it is also a highly versatile machine that can excavate for pools, reach and lift heavy loads and perform a broad range of other tasks required on site.

The Bobcat T650 was built with performance in mind

The T650 has been built with more surface area of the machine in contact with the ground, with the weight and horsepower finely balanced for performance. In conjunction with the direct-drive motor, these features best-in-class pushing force to increase productivity. The even distribution of the machine weight across the tracks also provides minimal terrain disturbance and the ability to lift heavier loads.

To improve cycle times, the hydraulic pumps in the T650 (like the other Bobcat M2-Series loaders), have been matched to the individual loader lift capacity and cylinder size for optimum output. These highly-efficient pumps match the power demanded for each operation to deliver powerful breakout forces, while the clever hydraulic bucket positioning maintains a level bucket when raising the lift arms, to reduce spillage and boost efficiency.

Innovative design enables on-site efficiency with the Bobcat T650

The cooling system in the T650 cools the machine more efficiently, while protecting the radiator and hydraulic oil cooler from job site hazards. As opposed to pulling dirty air from above the tyres, or the rear of the machine like in competitor products, the T650 pulls clean, cool air from above the machine and the SmartFAN spins only as quickly as is necessary to maximise efficiency. There is also an optional reversing fan for dirty work environments, which clears debris from the radiator screen during operation.

The Deluxe Instrumentation Panel onboard the T650 enables operators to set the guidelines of the grading system, such as distance-to-target for both slope and elevation, while receiving real-time information on progress. This removes the need for a separate control box in the cab. The cab design has seen it shifted forward, for closer proximity to the attachment and an improved vantage point, while visibility has been significantly improved in all directions. In fact, there is up to 50% more glass surfaces versus other manufacturer machines and new powerful lighting has been introduced for enhanced visibility during night-time operation.

The Bobcat T650 thrives in rough conditions

While battling the mud, debris and dust that is encountered on site, the class-leading enclosed, pressurised cab of the T650 will keep operators dry and comfortable. The adjustable suspension seat, sound-dampening features and ample head and legroom make for a pleasant and productive work environment, even during the toughest of jobs. Bobcat have also managed to reduce vibration and noise with the new Lift Cylinder Cushioning, which removes the need for manual arm slowing and makes typically harsh movements much smoother.

There are a number of impressive features on the T650 which are designed to maximise machine uptime. Automatic shutdown comes standard and monitors engine and hydraulic functioning, alerting the operator and performing a shutdown when an issue is detected. This reduces the chance of engine and hydraulic damage and unplanned maintenance or servicing. The on-board diagnostics system provides real-time information to enable problems to be addressed on site and even be prevented prior to occurring. There is also a battery run-down protection function which automatically shuts down the lighting circuit to prevent unintended battery discharge.

As you would expect from Bobcat, the T650 comes with a long list of compactible attachments, including buckets, saws, brooms, augers, breakers and mowers. If you need a versatile, powerful and reliable all-rounder for your job site, look no further!
