Bobcat 853 Loader Service Manual (SN 509718001-509799999)

A Bobcat 853 is a good all-around skid-steer for dirt work, manure, snow, and pallet chores. When one starts creeping, losing drive, or popping hydraulic hoses, this is the book I grab around my shop. It's what you use when you're past guessing and need actual specs and step-by-step repair info. If your machine's tag falls in the serial range listed, this is meant to be the workshop manual for it.

What this manual helps you do

  • Diagnose weak drive, no-move, or one-side-only problems in the hydrostatic system and drive motors
  • Check and set hydraulic and charge pressures with a gauge so you're not chasing ghosts
  • Follow teardown and reassembly steps for cylinders, control valves, and drive components
  • Trace, test, and repair wiring and safety interlocks when the loader won't start or keeps shutting down
  • Replace and adjust engine, cooling, and fuel system parts after a failure or an overheated weekend

Who this is for

This fits a Bobcat 853 owner, small contractor, or mechanic who wants to do real repairs, not just filters and grease. If you only want basic controls, capacities, and daily checks, you want the operator's handbook instead, not this service manual.

FAQ

Q: Is this a searchable PDF, and can you read the wiring diagrams?

A: These manuals are usually scanned or native PDFs that you can search, and the wiring diagrams are made to be zoomed in on a laptop or tablet.

Q: How do I know if it covers my exact 853?

A: Check your loader's serial number plate. If it falls between 509718001 and 509799999, this is the right service manual family for it.

Q: Is this the right book if I'm rebuilding and troubleshooting, not just maintaining?

A: Yes, this is the workshop-level service manual, not a parts list or quick-start booklet.

Bottom line: If your 853's serial number is in that range and you plan to wrench on it yourself, this is the "yes" manual. If your serial is outside that range, skip it.
