Bobcat T140 2006 Service Manual

This is the factory service manual for the Bobcat T140 2006 Service Manual – dealer copy, printed in 2006 by Bobcat Company. 616 pages of OEM procedures, not a third-party reprint. If you’ve ever tried to rebuild a lift cylinder using aftermarket instructions, you know the frustration of missing torque values and vague steps. This manual eliminates that.

Bobcat built these loaders with the Bobcat Interlock Control System (BICS). The manual covers that system in detail. Page 60-01 gives diagnostics for the BICS solenoid and lock valve. You get the actual factory tighten procedures, not some generic chart.

Engine Lubrication System: Oil and Filter Replacement

Chapter 10-01 covers the engine lubrication system. It includes the oil chart, checking oil, replacement procedures, and the correct filter part numbers. The manual shows you the exact sequence for replacing oil and filter – with torque values for the drain plug and filter housing. Overlook that and you’re chasing leaks later.

Hydraulic System: Cylinder (Lift) Disassembly and Assembly

Section 20-01 covers the lift cylinder from removal to assembly. You get the identification chart, disassembly steps, and the assembly order with seal replacement. The manual includes the rod end pivot pin bushing replacement procedure for the tilt cylinder as well. Working on the hydraulic control valve? The foot control and ACS versions are both covered with exploded views.

Safety Instructions: Fire Prevention and Lifting

Fire prevention is covered in the safety instructions section. The manual also details lifting and blocking the loader, including the lift arm support device installation and removal. If you skip the block procedure on a 5,000-pound machine, you’re asking for trouble. That’s the difference between a factory manual and a pirated PDF.

Does This Manual Cover the BICS System?

Yes. The BICS (Bobcat Interlock Control System) is covered in the electrical/hydraulic controls reference. You get the BICS valve solenoid disassembly and assembly, lock valve removal, check valve removal, and the lift arm by-pass orifice procedures. Page 60-01 has the diagnostics service codes. Without those codes, you’re swapping parts.

7 Systems Covered in 616 Pages

The manual covers the engine, cooling system, fuel system, hydraulic/hydrostatic system, fan gearbox, Bob-Tach, and final drive transmission (chaincase). Each system has its own chapter with troubleshooting charts. The hydraulic system section alone includes a glossary of symbols, tighten procedures, and a troubleshooting chart. The engine section covers components and testing, flywheel and housing, and engine speed control.

Get the Right Torque Data

Torque specifications are spread throughout the manual – on cylinder gland nuts, relief valves, and hydraulic fittings. The manual provides OEM values only. Aftermarket manuals frequently list 80 ft-lb when the factory calls for 65 ft-lb. That stripped bolt costs you an afternoon. With this manual, you get the numbers the assembly line used.
