It’s Just Part of the Job

A routine service that prevented a costly repair

When a customer brought in their Bobcat E42 excavator for a scheduled interval service and to have a track issue checked out, our technician Jonathan noticed something else: two hydraulic leaks the customer didn’t know about.

‘They came in for a track that kept coming loose and a service,’ Jonathan says. ‘But I looked it over and saw that the pedal valve and isolation valve were leaking. I replaced both of them. If we hadn’t discovered the leaks,’ he continues, ‘the customer would have run out of hydrostatic oil — and if they’d kept running it like that, it would have burned up the pump.

‘But that’s what we do every day: it’s just part of our job to look it over.”

Because the customer followed their recommended maintenance schedule, those leaks were caught early - before they could turn into a major repair.

At Triangle Equipment Group, our technicians don’t just change fluids and filters. Every time you bring your machine in for service, look it over from top to bottom. We catch issues that could otherwise go unnoticed - saving you time, money, and downtime in the long run.

That’s what regular maintenance is all about — keeping your Bobcat running right and avoiding surprises on the job site.

It’s all part of the job.
