All new machines with a Deluxe Instrument Panel arrive at Bobcat dealerships with the keypad in locked mode.
Locked mode means that a password must be used to start the engine.
For security purposes, your dealer may change the password and set the keypad in the locked mode. Your dealer will provide you with the password.
Master Password:
A permanent, randomly selected password set at the factory that cannot be changed. This password is used for service by the Bobcat dealer if the owner password is not known or to change the owner password.
Owner Password:
Allows for full use of the excavator and to set up the Deluxe Instrument Panel. There is only one owner password. The owner password must be used to change the owner or user passwords. Owner should change the password as soon as possible for security of the excavator.
User Password:
Allows starting and operating the excavator; cannot change password or any of the other setup features.
For the procedures to change passwords: (See Changing The Owner Password on Page 50-91-7.) and (See Changing The User Passwords on Page 50-91-9.)
