Introducing the T86 and S86 Loaders

The Most Powerful Compact Loaders We've Ever Built

The Bobcat® T86 and S86 are the most powerful compact loaders we’ve ever built, delivering more usable engine and hydraulic horsepower than ever before. We’ve boosted the horsepower for the T86 compact track loader and S86 skid-steer loader while optimizing machine weight. The result is greater lifting capabilities, impressive breakout forces and leading maneuverability for fast cycle times. Compare the weight-to-horsepower ratio of the T86 and S86 to other machines in their class size and you’ll understand why these machines deliver the all-around performance you expect for today’s most demanding jobs.

From a bucketful of dense material to a truck filled with loaded pallets, the ability to lift more, carry more and reach farther provides a true measure of loader productivity. With added horsepower and improved lifting capability throughout the loaders’ range of motion, the T86 and S86 are truly revolutionary.

Performance to Make you More Precise and Productive

Designed to boost productivity, Premium Power Performance is an optional power management system that distributes power more efficiently. Premium Power Performance improves engine-to-workgroup efficiency, distributing more power where and when it’s needed during multi-tasking operations. The innovative power management system makes these R-Series machines highly controllable and extremely efficient. Smoother, faster control, with maximum power where and when you need it most means more heavy-duty work done per day.

Built for the Long Haul

Better, more reliable cooling is essential as operators demand compact equipment that can run longer and do bigger, more difficult jobs. The R-Series cooling system is completely redesigned with a larger, high-capacity radiator and fan for optimal operation and maximum uptime. Larger auxiliary hydraulic hoses and tube lines deliver more efficient flow and support cooler operating temperatures. R-Series loaders also make routine maintenance easy and support operator uptime with features including: a reversible fan, maintenance-free chaincase, a machine protection system that safeguards against damage to the engine and hydraulics, simplified emissions, protected hoses and quick couplers, and real-time self-diagnostics.

Versatility to Fit More Tasks

Only the Bobcat T86 and S86 deliver three hydraulic flow options – standard, high and super flow – in one machine, setting a new industry benchmark in performance and attachment versatility. Each component, including the engine, pumps and hydraulic system, is engineered to deliver maximum hydraulic performance so you can work quicker, lift more and take your productivity to new heights.

Premium Comfort and Ease of Use

The R-Series T86 and S86 carry on the Bobcat tradition of providing a comfortable, well-designed operator experience for all-day productivity. The roomy cab offers a sealed and pressurized environment that repels dust and dirt, isolates the operator from noise, and enhances the efficiency of heating and air conditioning. Comfort options include a roomy cab, a heated air-ride seat, automatic heat and air conditioning, ergonomic controls and innovative displays to keep you productive on long, challenging days. The easy-to-read cab display, a standard feature in R-Series loaders, provides full-featured machine interaction and monitoring capabilities.

Additional Features

Three Workgroup Response Settings

Three workgroup response settings allow you to adjust the joystick sensitivity of lift and tilt functions to match your operation preference with the demands of the job. Adjust between slower and smooth movements for precision operations, then switch to faster lift and tilt functions for applications that require more speed.

Rearview Camera

The rearview camera, standard equipment on the T86 and S86, offers a continuous rear view from the operator’s seat, helping to identify obstacles on the jobsite.

Speed Management

By matching travel speed to your operation requirements, speed management maximizes attachment performance and gives you even more precise control of machine movements. Speed management allows the operator to “dial in” their desired travel speed in small increments and provides for optimal productivity when using attachments that require slow travel speeds.
Simply dial in your travel speed and maximize attachment performance. Speed management gives you a full range of joystick motion at a slower speed, giving you precise control of machine movements while maintaining maximum driveline torque and full hydraulic power.

Attachment Versatility

Get the most out of your machine with a wide range of Bobcat attachments, including attachments designed specifically for super-flow hydraulics. Bobcat attachments are engineered to be fully integrated with the carrier’s electronics, hydraulics and geometry so that you can leave behind the best possible work results on every jobsite – every time.
