Bobcat Throttle

[Polecat]

Bobcat e10, how soon after cold startup & engine at tickover should the hydraulics respond, mine seems to take ages probably 7 to 10 seconds, just wondering if it’s related to the other fault it has with the cracked valve block, presumably it wouldn’t be helping matters, pick the revs up & the hydraulics will respond quicker, once its working & your digging normally with it the hydraulics respond as they should, but get off machine & leave it at tickover a while, the hydraulics are little slow to respond again.

E10 and dx10 was and are always slow to get going.

So fairly normal then I guess

Very normal.

If you activate the blade first (direct linkage) then the servo controls will respond quicker.

I've not operated mini diggers for a good few years, at our depot we started back in the 80s with a Pel Job from the local plant hire as & when we needed a machine, then we had a couple of 1.5 ton JCBs alongside a 3cx & a 4cx, I think all these were on long term lease.
Can't remember the Pel job being a bit sluggish though.
