Bobcat T770 Compact Track Loader Overview
#1
Machine Description
The Bobcat T770 is a high-capacity compact track loader designed for heavy-duty construction, landscaping, and agricultural applications. Powered by a robust 92-horsepower, 3.4-liter Bobcat-branded Tier 4 Final diesel engine, it balances power, efficiency, and compliance with emissions regulations without requiring a diesel particulate filter (DPF). The machine weighs approximately 10,464 pounds, providing stability and durability for demanding jobs.
Performance and Hydraulics
  • The T770’s standard hydraulic flow rate delivers 23 gallons per minute (GPM), with an optional high-flow setting increasing output to 36.6 GPM for operating hydraulic-intensive attachments like forestry cutters.
  • It is engineered with a vertical lift path ideal for heavy lifting, truck loading, and digging tasks, offering an 11-foot lift height at the hinge pin.
  • Two-speed travel improves maneuverability and transport speed across job sites.
  • The premium track system features steel-embedded rubber tracks, forged steel idlers, and solid-mounted drive motors designed for longevity and smooth operation.
Operator Comfort and Control
  • The spacious cab incorporates generous visibility with a large entryway, elevated seat, and large windows providing clear sightlines to bucket edges, tracks, and work areas.
  • Operators benefit from bobcat’s Selectable Joystick Controls (SJC), the most advanced joystick system offering customizable control for various attachments and functions, improving operator efficiency.
  • Optional air ride seat and cab pressurization enhance comfort during prolonged operation.
  • Operators can control engine speed with foot pedals, enabling precise attachment and drive control.
Maintenance and Technology
  • The machine features easy-access maintenance points, a swing-open tailgate, and a lack of complicated radiator or lift arm removals, reducing service time.
  • Its innovative fuel system self-primes and continuously expels air from the fuel circuit, complemented by a fuel pressure sensor that alerts operators to clogged filters.
  • Cooling is optimized through the SmartFAN system, which adapts fan speed for efficient temperature management and includes an optional automatic reversing fan to clear debris.
Additional Features
  • The Bob-Tach™ attachment mounting system enables fast, secure attachment changes without leaving the cab.
  • The Machine IQ telematics system provides real-time monitoring of machine health, usage, and maintenance reminders via mobile or desktop devices.
  • Remote operation is possible via Bobcat’s MaxControl system, enhancing safety and enabling solo operator efficiency.
