2022 Bobcat S590 Skid-Steer Loader

Attachment Features

• VERSATILE ATTACHMENT USE: Our attachments truly help you do more than dig. Bobcat offers attachment versatility across carriers combined with unbeatable attachment support from the Bobcat dealer network.
• BOB-TACH ATTACHMENT SYSTEMS: Change attachments quickly and easily using the time-tested standard Bob-Tach mounting system included with every loader, or upgrade to the Power Bob-Tach system - available on select models - for swapping non-hydraulic attachments without leaving your seat.

Comfort Features

• OPERATOR COMFORT: When you step in the cab of a Bobcat loader, you’ll immediately notice the attention given to operator comfort. A long list of features is included in the cab with a large entry for easy access and 20% more interior space than competitors. Once inside, cab pressurization and an adjustable seat are just the beginning.
• LEADING VISIBILITY: Bobcat skid-steer loader and compact track loader cabs are designed for all-around visibility. As you grade next to a building or load the machine on a trailer, you’ll gain optimal sight lines for easier operation. View the bucket corners from your seat and easily see the cutting edge. Your tracks or tires are visible without raising the loader arms. A large top window gives you visibility while dumping material into a high-sided truck.
• ADAPTABLE CONTROLS: Intuitive and adaptable controls on Bobcat skid-steer and compact track loaders make it easy for operators to be as productive as possible. Whether your job requires a fine touch working close to walls and obstacles or quick, responsive work group action and maneuverability, Bobcat gives you the ability to choose the best controls for the task. When paired with SJC controls, the engine speed can be controlled with the operator’s foot, while fingertip controls simplify the operation of soil conditioners, sweepers, tillers, buckets, grapples and other attachments. Foot pedals can also be adjusted to your preferences.
• PRESSURIZED ENCLOSED CAB: Bobcat loaders with enclosed cabs feature a best-in-class, pressurizing front door seal that repels dust and keeps clean, heated or air-conditioned air inside, for maximum comfort.
• SEAT ADJUSTMENT: Adjustable seats on our skid-steer loaders and compact track loaders set the standard for comfort. No matter your height, it’s easy to find a comfortable operating position with multiple adjustment points.
• HYDRAULICALLY CUSHIONED CYLINDERS: Smooth, quick Bobcat lift cylinders softly lower the lift arms back to their original position on the loader frame. This occurs automatically with every lift cycle to reduce noise and increase comfort during operation.

Performance Features

• STATE-OF-THE-ART, NON-DPF ENGINE: Bobcat engines meet Tier 4 regulations without a diesel particulate filter (DPF). This reduces downtime that occurs with DPF regeneration and minimizes long-term DPF maintenance costs. M3-Series loaders are designed to deliver more usable horsepower, so you can work quicker, lift more and outperform the competition.
• POWERFUL HYDRAULIC PERFORMANCE: Bobcat loaders consistently meet your high expectations for performance. The design, balance and weight distribution deliver more usable horsepower, powerful breakout forces and faster cycle times. Work quicker, lift more and outperform your competition.
• STANDARD CONTROL SYSTEM: With Bobcat Standard Controls, available on select models, a lever controls the drive on each side independently, while your feet control the lift arms and bucket. The farther you stroke the lever, the faster you go. The shorter the stroke, the more torque is delivered to the wheels or tracks – allowing maximum power for pushing into a pile. This tried-and-true system is still a popular style of control.
• QUICKER TURNING: When not carrying a load, Bobcat skid-steer loaders deliver balanced, easy turning for ideal performance. Compared to “flat-footed” machines sold by other manufacturers, our skid-steer loaders offer effective turning and skidding; reduced fuel consumption and power requirements; increased drive train and tire life; and less wear and tear.
• BOBCAT MAXCONTROL REMOTE OPERATION: Now you can control your Bobcat loader using an app on your iOS smartphone. This system functions as an extra set of hands when help is limited, allowing quick two-person jobs to be handled by a single operator. It also enables operators to avoid repeated trips in and out of the cab.

Serviceability Features

• HYDRAULIC OIL SITE GAUGE: Check your hydraulic oil level quickly and easily as you walk by your machine. Keep an eye on hydraulic oil levels and simplify your daily checks.
• FULL-ACCESS SERVICEABILITY: No other loader matches the serviceability of Bobcat skid-steer loaders and compact track loaders. Our large, swing-open tailgate provides convenient access to routine maintenance points. Unlike other brands, there are no radiators to move, lift arms to raise or lift-arm support devices to install in order to service the machine. Spend your time completing maintenance work rather than struggling to gain access.
• TIP-UP LOADER CAB: For non-routine service, simply remove two nuts and tip back the cab to access hydraulic and hydrostatic components in minutes.
• EASY GREASE POINT ACCESS: Maintenance is easier and faster with easy-to-access grease zerk locations on critical pivot points. Avoid lying on the ground or standing on tracks to grease the pins.
• TRANSVERSE ENGINE & BELT DRIVE: Bobcat loaders offer one-sided serviceability thanks to the exclusive belt-drive system. This durable technology with a multi-groove Kevlar™ belt allows your loader engine to run slower for reduced noise and increased durability. It’s also more efficient with an optimized engine-to-pump package.

Uptime Protection Features

• PROTECTED LOADER COMPONENTS: Jobsite hazards are everywhere and when your machine is out of operation for repairs, you lose time and money. With Bobcat skid-steer loaders and compact track loaders, you’re ready for nearly anything that you’ll encounter. Each component is designed for reliable protection. That means peace of mind, no matter the conditions of your jobsite.
• SMART COOLING SYSTEM: Cooling on Bobcat M3-Series loaders features the exclusive SmartFAN that only turns as fast as needed. The patented design cools more efficiently, while the radiator and hydraulic oil cooler are protected from jobsite hazards. Additionally, Bobcat M3-Series machines feature patented dual-path cooling, which draws cool, clean air from above, pulls warm air out of the engine compartment and forces it out two side vents, directing hot air away from the operator.
• PROTECTION TECHNOLOGIES: Reliable Bobcat equipment protects your reputation of timely, productive work. Every skid-steer and compact track loader is engineered with multiple protection technologies. Working together, they shield your machine and minimize the risk of failure. For you, that means better reliability and the confidence to do your work.
• MAINTENANCE-FREE CHAINCASE: Many brands will tout the ability to adjust their loaders' drive chains. These periodic adjustments cost you time, productivity and money. Bobcat has offered a better way for years with its skid-steer loaders: No adjustments. The bolted axle housings of other manufacturers require periodic adjustments – as normal operation causes turning stress and creates potential loosening. This job demands the removal or loosening of potentially dozens of bolts. Bobcat welds its axle tubes to the loader chaincase. This, along with tight tolerance chain placement, eliminates the need for adjustments. So instead of spending time in the shop, you can spend time on the job with Bobcat skid-steer loaders.
• COLD WEATHER ENGINE PROTECTION: Bobcat diesel engines are engineered to guard against the damaging effects of extremely cold weather. They prevent premature wear by automatically increasing the idle speed (rpm) to warm up oil and set a maximum operating speed (rpm) to prevent premature component wear or failure. Depending on the engine oil temperature, the protection may activate for several seconds to a few minutes.
• INNOVATIVE FUEL SYSTEM - SELF-PRIMING FUEL SYSTEM: The innovative new fuel system includes a variety of features that make maintenance and service more convenient. The new fuel pump enables a self-priming system that continuously forces air out of the low-pressure fuel system and back into the fuel tank, eliminating the need for a primer bulb. The new low pressure fuel system also incorporates a fuel pressure sensor to continuously monitor the low pressure fuel circuit and can notify the operator of a plugged fuel filter. This makes it easier on operators if the fuel tank runs empty or if changing the fuel filter.
