The Bobcat T300 specs are created to have great components in them. This track loader was made by Bobcat Company, a part of Korea’s Doosan group based in America, with its headquarters in West Fargo, North Dakota, USA.
This company focuses on farm and construction equipment manufacturers. This track loader can work in large surface areas and slippery, muddy, or unstable terrains.
Bobcat T300 Outer Dimensions
The Bobcat T300 track loader is good to be used to do hard labor work. It is designed 9.6 ft in (2918 mm) without a bucket, 11.9 ft in with the bucket in length, and 6.5 ft in (1981 mm) in width. The height of this track loader reaches 6.7 ft in (2055 mm). The loader bucket can be lifted to 8.3 ft (2517 mm) and reach 2.8 ft (859 mm).
Bobcat T300 Machine Specs
The Bobcat T300 specs have a Kubota v3300TE 81 hp horsepower produced by a four-cylinder diesel engine complete with a turbocharged engine. The Bobcat T300 has a 30-gallon fuel capacity and can reach a maximum speed of up to 10.6 km/h (6.6 mph) under the operating weight of 4400.8 kg (9702 lb). The number of track rollers is 5 per side and has 4.2 psi ground pressure.
The Bobcat T300 also has a high-flow hydraulics system that can pump fluid 21.2 gallons per minute (80.3 liters per minute). Aside from that, the Bobcat T300 also comes with

“Having operated the Bobcat T300 in various terrains, I’ve noticed that the high-flow hydraulics system, although powerful, can sometimes exhibit erratic behavior when the machine is under heavy load. For instance, the machine may experience a noticeable drop in hydraulic pressure when working in extremely muddy conditions. This issue often traces back to clogged filters or worn-out hydraulic pumps, which are common maintenance challenges for this model.”
In addition to the Bobcat T320 specs, the Bobcat Company has added a new roller suspension system and improved the undercarriage on the Bobcat T300 to add operator comfort while operating the track loader on the field.
Bobcat T300 General Maintenance
Maintaining the Bobcat T300 is critical for long-term reliability. From my experience, the undercarriage is prone to rapid wear, especially when operating in abrasive or muddy environments. Regular inspection and cleaning of the undercarriage can prevent premature wear.
Additionally, the hydraulic system is another component that requires frequent attention. Operators often face issues like a slow hydraulic response or low pressure, often due to blocked filters or aging hydraulic pumps. Addressing these issues promptly can prevent more severe damage.
Keep the undercarriage clean every time you use the track loader. Try to get the dirt and debris out as much as possible. Then, ensure that the rollers can turn and are debris-free. Once you clean up the undercarriage, check for uneven wear that can cause the load to shift to other components, resulting in the system quickly wearing out.
Remember to check the sprocket for unnecessary excessive wear. If there are any, replace them to prevent damage to the track. Regular maintenance on your Bobcat T300 is the key to maximizing the life of the track loader.
