What This Service Manual Covers in Detail

The Bobcat E85 service manual opens with safety instructions and fire prevention guidelines, then moves into excavator identification, serial number locations, and lifting procedures. The maintenance section provides a complete service schedule with intervals at 10, 50, 250, 500, 1000 hours and 24 months, covering engine oil and filter changes, fuel filter service, hydraulic filter replacement, track tension checks, and lubrication points.

The hydraulic system chapter is particularly extensive, spanning troubleshooting charts, cylinder service procedures for boom, arm, boom swing, bucket, blade, and clamp cylinders, valve testing and adjustment for main relief, port relief, cross port relief, and pressure reducing valves. The hydraulic pump section includes a detailed work sheet for six adjustments, pump testing procedures, torque limiter valve service, pump control disassembly, and complete pump teardown and assembly. The control valve chapter covers a ten-section closed center system with load sense relief, and the manifold assembly, travel motor, swivel joint, and swing motor all receive full removal, disassembly, inspection, and assembly treatment.

The E85 excavator electrical system chapter provides a troubleshooting chart, fuse and relay identification, battery servicing, alternator testing (including voltage testing procedures), starter testing, light service, diagnostic service codes with a comprehensive list, control panel setup for both standard and deluxe instrument panels, controller locations, engine control unit cleaning and removal, key switch, wiper motor, motion alarm system, and Bobcat Machine IQ wireless communications. The wiring schematic section includes 18 sheets covering power, ground, CAN bus, engine, hydraulics, frame, lights, radio, HVAC, options, and engine reference circuits.

The Bobcat D24NAP engine service chapter includes specifications, sensor locations, torque values, troubleshooting, engine removal and installation, compression testing using both glow plug and injector adapters, injector signal testing, oil pressure testing at both the oil sensor on the block and the turbocharger oil inlet. The cylinder head chapter covers glow plug testing, valve clearance adjustment, cylinder head removal and installation, disassembly and assembly, inspection, top clearance, valve step height, valve guide and spring service, and rocker arm shaft service. Crankshaft and pistons, camshaft, gearcase, turbocharger, flywheel and housing, and EGR system chapters round out the engine section.

The HVAC chapter covers air conditioning system flow, component identification, safety equipment, regular maintenance including filter cleaning and compressor belt service, troubleshooting trees, temperature and pressure charts, system charging and reclamation procedures, compressor removal and oil check, condenser, receiver/drier, evaporator/heater unit, thermostat, expansion valve, evaporator coil, heater coil, blower fan, heater valve, control panel, HVAC duct, and auto HVAC system with ATM diagnostic codes.
