Hey all,
I have a few questions/recommendations on maintenance on our Bobcat. We picked up our new bobcat ATC this May and have been loving it. We've had a few issues though and wanted to seek recommendations from you all.
First, we are from Portland, so we drive in the rain a lot. I've noticed some leaking from the front window during heavier rains. Have any of you had this problem? Any recommendations of sealant I could use around the window?
Second, on my most recent trip, I had issues with my furnace, stove, propane. When I first was setting up and turned the propane on, everything worked. When I left for the day, I turned the heat off. Then when I was getting ready to turn in for the night I turned the heat back on, on the thermostat and the furnace did not want to ignite even though I heard it clicking. I checked the stove, that too was not working properly. Throughout the next couple days, I trialed turned the propane off, disconnecting the hose, re-connecting it, slowly cracking it (I was told by a friend there is a chemical in new tanks that, when opened to quickly, may affect the release of propane). Sometimes it would work, sometimes it wouldn't. I did notice that when ever I turned the heat off on the thermostat, the propane usually wouldn't work again. Any recommendations on fixing this problem?
Any and all recommendations are welcome! Thanks in advance,
NR
