Attachments increase utility vehicle's versatility

Bobcat's new 2300 four-wheel-drive utility vehicle is designed to mow, sweep, and move materials with its one-of-a-kind RapidLink attachment system. The RapidLink attachment arm can lift loads up to 500 pounds as high as 2 feet. The 2300 can be equipped with five attachments, including a bucket, mower, pallet forks, snow blade and whisker push broom, turning it into a multipurpose vehicle.

Users have the ability to operate and change attachments from the comfort of their seat with an easy-to-operate joystick control. The operator must leave the seat only to lock or unlock the attachment. When it's not in use, the attachment arm can be removed for traditional four-wheel-drive applications.

The 20-hp vehicle has Bobcat's IntelliTrak drive system, which automatically sends power to all four wheels when traction is needed for climbing hills or traveling over soft terrain. The system prevents one, two or three wheels from spinning without the fourth. The automatic locking differentials engage when needed and disengage when turning, minimizing ground disturbance and wear to tires and drive components.

“The biggest benefit is that they're very simple to use,” says Brad Claus, utility vehicle product manager for Bobcat. “You get in, put it in gear and go.”
