Bobcat Product Update...

Prompted by some customer feedback (thanks Emma) we’ve decided to revert back to a 6 footed Bobcat - we updated to 3 adjustable feet for our podium units on the basis that having height adjust ability across all of our units was an improvement but losing the added stability that 6 feet gives was the compromise.

Our original 2008 Fat Bob units

Our previous Bobcat end cat feet assembly

If you have purchased a Bobcat with height adjustable feet & would like to change over to the new 6 feet assembly then please get in touch & we will be happy to send out a set of feet so they can be retro fitted to your unit - they come with fixings so it’s a simple case of unscrewing the adjustable feet & screwing the new feet onto the base.

The Bobcat update above has also made us review the assembly & feet design across our Polecat, Tomcat & Fatcat units - the adjustable feet that we currently use were custom made size & have done a good job at offering height adjustability in a sleek design but don’t have the gripping attributes that our original rubber feet had, which is the downside when our Polecat & Tomcat units are installed on hard floors.

In looking at feet options for our Bobcat units we’ve come across an excellent fixed height rubber foot that we think will be a better overall option for our units as installation will be even simpler, with less fixings & parts plus will provide more grip than the current feet.

We intend to trial the new feet & installation steps over the next few weeks & all being well will roll out the improvement next month.
