SG-BC14-CT8 - Machine Side Bobcat 14 Pin to Attachment Side Cat, Terex & ASV 8 Pin | Skid Steer Genius

  • $265.00

Ask a Question

Here's a Genius idea.  Why not allow people with Caterpillar attachments run them on their Bobcat Skid Steer Loader?  This adapter does just that.  Just plug one end into your Bobcat Loader and plug the other into your attachment equipped with an 8 pin connector.  Turn on your machine and get to work.  This is another Genius product.  The best ideas at the best prices.

Please read this and understand. This adapter is for older Bobcat machines or newer machines who have added a 14 pin kit.  100% of newer machines do not have 14 pin.  They use CAN signal 7 pin connections.  This product will not work.  You will need to buy one of our 7 pin kits found here.  CLICK THIS LINK TO SEE OUR 7 PIN CONTROLLERS

Note:  Also works with Kubota, New Holland, Case, Gehl, JCB/Volvo, Takeuchi & Yanmar loaders.

For attachments, you must verify that it is an 8 pin style connector.  It does not matter if there are less sockets.  Count the positions, not the installed sockets.  If it is a CAT attachment, they made them with 8 and 14 pin styles so you must verify or you will order the wrong thing and it won't work.

Note:  Bobcat 14 Pin outputs 6 switched ports.  Caterpillar/ASV/Terex only outputs 4 ports.  You will notice that this adapter has 5 pins installed.  Up/Down & Left/Right are all that is available.  This is a manufacturer limitation and not something that we have introduced.

  • I have a takeuchi tl8r2 2020 high flow i would like to have a adapter that i can use a caterpillar cold planer do you have any that would work

    This is a problem.  Takeuchi usually only provides 5 controls and your cold planer requires 6 controls.  Does the machine have a G/H switch down by your left thigh?  If it's a new planer, how many connections do you see in the connector?  It could be a SMART attachment that uses CAN tech.  If so, all bets are off and you should return it.

  • Good Morning, I have a Bobcat 2012 model s650. I just purchased a Caterpillar snowblower for this Bobcat. I didn't know at the time of purchase that Bobcat has a different electrical hook-up that you can't run competitions equipment without a lot of redoing and grief My Caterpillar snowblower is model SR118 and is a 2018 model year. Do you have an adaptor that will work for me? Thank you, Doug Schueler

    Read the following carefully or you will blow your fuse and eventually our controller.

    You must verify that there is no pin in the K postion of the attachment.  It is used for high flow sense and is a ground connection.  On Bobcat it is a +12 volt power connection.  You will blow your fuse everytime you plug the attachment into the controller.  One guy did 6 fuses in a row until he finally blew up our controller.

    Your S650 may have hand/foot controls in which case pins C & D may not fire when you move the left hand toggle left and right.  If that is the case, you will need to move C to G and D to H on your attachment.

  • Will this work For a Volvo MC 115C with a 14 pin ( male ) to a cat style 8 pin female ? I can e mail photos if needed

    Yes.  They use the old Bobcat pin out.  Says it in the notes.

    Note:  Also works with Kubota, New Holland, Case, Gehl, JCB/Volvo, Takeuchi & Yanmar loaders.

  • Hi I need a plug to fit a case skid loader 175 b to a ciment bucket attachment which only use earth and live wires. Can you help me which one is good pls.

    What brand of concrete bucket is it?  If it is the Chinese import buckets from RB Auctions, here is the kit.  I am guessing because I seem to answer 3 - 4 of these enquiries per day as they are being dumped in auctions by the hundreds these days.  Its actually kind of sad to see as they don't last very long and there are no parts available.

  • I have Simex T300 wheel saw attachment and BOBCAT S550 skidsteer have you got any adapter? Kind regards Joseph

    What kind of electrical connection is on the attachment?  Pictures please?

  • I need that same item but the other way around, which is machine side CAT to attachment side BOBCAT... its a CAT 262D 14 PIN and the attachment its Rexroth BOBCAT 7 PIN. I will appreciate your help!

    That is currently not possible.  It is on my list, but it's about a year out and will be expensive.  You need to use a harness.

  • Do you have the 14 male and the 8 is female Or the attachment is bobcat and the machine machine is cat277

    This is confusing.  What series of Cat do you have?  A,B,C (8 pin)?  or D(14 pin)

    Bobcat Attachment?  14 pin or 7 pin?

  • I have a caterpillar 259 b3 I believe it has a14 pin connector on machine In trying to attack my stump grinder which I believe 8 pin do u have any thing for that

    All CAT A, B or C series are 8 pin.  Only D series are 14 pin.  It is all explained here.

  • I have a kobota svl 95-2s 14 pin and want to run a cat sr321 snowblower 8 pin adapter thank you

    Please watch this video and verify which controls you have.

  • I have a Erskine snowblower with a 8 pin connector to control the shoot and I just purchased your joystick control box. Will this adapter work for my application?

    Well, we use 4 out of 6 wires because the 8 pin only allows it.  You are best to chop off the 8 pin and replace it with a 14 pin female.  Then it will be perfect.

  • Have a CAT PC205 cold plane/mill and want to use on TAKEUCHI TL8 skid steer loader. Solved hydraulic flow & pressure for side shift by adding external closed center manual valve w/relief just for operating sideshift. Does the SG-BC14-CT8 give me electronic controls for rest of functions? Any relevant experience shared will be appreciated.

    Yes.   That will give you the electric controls for 4 functions but my understanding was that you needed those extra functions to run simutaneously to operate the functions in unison.  Not sure if what you have done will allow everything to work.

  • Hi, I have a CAT 267B and I'm currently using a Harley rake MX7 on it. I plan on upgrading to a CAT 289 D series machine. Am I looking at the correct connector (SG-BC14-CT8) to use my old Harley MX7 on a CAT D Series machine? Thx, Mike

    Yes.  This is the correct adapter.

  • I have a 2008 T300 bobcat loader with 14 pin connector I want to use a CAT six way dozer blade with 8 pin connector Will this adaptor work? Thank you

    Yes.  This is the correct adapter.

  • Will this work on a Kubota svl95-2 to cat snowblower sr321

    If the blower is an 8 pin Cat and the Kubota was ordered with enough controls.  Look in the end of the 14 pin on the Kubota.  If you only see 4 pins, this will not work and you should just use our control box (JCB-100) or wireless controller (WACT-6).

  • Hello, customer has a older Cat skid loader and rotary broom with the 8 pin connector. Recently purchased a new Kubota track machine with the 14 pin connector. Will this allow him to use the broom on the new Kubota? Thanks.

    Yes.  This will work.

  • I want to run 8 pin cat attachments on a gehl that has 14 pin, will this adapter work? SG-BC14-CT8

    It will work as long as the cat attachments are 3 line only.  If you see 5 lines, you will lose one set of functions since old Cat used a set of hydraulic controls for the extra functions and not electrical.

  • Hello I need a SG-BC 14-CT8 does it fit to CASE TR 340 to cold planner SIMEX PL5520? And did you ship to MALTA. Tks

    The machine side will work on the Case machine and I have no idea if it will work on the Simex.  It all depends on the original connector on the planer.  If it is really 8 pin, I cannot see it working unless it has the extra set of control hoses unless alos it does not have side shift control.  Yes, we ship to Malta.

  • Customer has a Cat 6 way dozer blade with 6 pin. We need an adapter for a Case TV370 14 pin. Which do I need?

    Here is a kit that we designed for this issue.  https://www.skidsteergenius.com/collections/bypass-cable-kits/products/genius-14-pin-cat-dozer-blade-kit-sg-bc14-ct-dozer-skid-steer-genius

  • Customer has T770 Bobcat and wants to run PC306B Cat planer on it. He has 14 pin harness on T770 alread. He just needs correct adapter to run planer on both Bobcat & Cat.Thanks

    There is no adapter needed for this if he plans on operating it only on the Bobcat and not going back to a CAT. First watch video #100 in our video gallery so you understand how to move pins. In the attachment 14 pin connector, open the back of the connector. Move Pin A to G and J to H. Check to see that there is no Pin K installed. For CAT this is a ground pin and Bobcat it is a +12 volt pin. You need to push this pin back into the connector if it is present or you will short out your ACS circuit and blow the fuse. Assemble the connector and get to work.

  • Our customer has recently purchased a new CAT 242D Skid Steer (9 pin) and would like to use a broom attachment from our Bobcat skid steer with 7 pins (male). Please advise what adapter harness do we need to get the CAT 242D skid steer to run the broom. Thank you.

    He will need to purchase a harness. Please order SG-BPH-14-4-9DP. Verify the connectors whether they are Deutsch or Delphi and make sure you have adapters.

  • The picture shown for 8 pin connector does not look like 8 pin connector we have on Harley power rake; we have 3 pins in top row then 2 pins in middle row and 3 pins in bottom row. We need to go from 8 pin to 14 pin Kubota

    The picture shown is definately an 8 pin on the output side going to the attachment while the machine side is a 14 pin which will plug into your Kubota.
    Guaranteed!

  • I have a jcb 270t I’m wanting to be able to rent bobcat brand attachments like a grinder and a dozer blade, will this work?

    That is not correct. That part number says Bobcat machine to Cat Attachment. Bobcat attachments require bypass harnesses. Please read the follwoing FAQ's.

  • I have a Case TV 380 High Flow skid and I want to attach my CAT wired cold planer. Do you have an adapter to help me out?

    Is the Cold Planer a new SMART attachment with an enhanced 14 pin?  If you are not sure, please send photos of it along with solenoid photos and the face of the 14 pin so we can figure it out.  We need to identify exactly what you have.

  • I have a kubota svl 75-2 mine is 14 pin I need to hook up to a friends tree shear with a 8 plug on attachment for his bobcat t76 what do i do ?

    Bobcat does not use 8 pin.  It would be a 14 pin (OLD) or from 2000 a 7 pin CAN control plug.  What brand of shear has this type of control.  Send me the brand and some pictures of what you are looking at please?  If it really has a CAN controller, we would need to swap in a new harness to his attachment.

  • I have a Eurocomach 19SK skid steer. It has a 14 pin and I'm trying to connect it to an Erskine snowblower with an ASV 8 pin. I'm sure you're not familiar with Eurocomach, but how do I send you pictures for your opinion? I think this harness will work.

    I am pretty sure that the Europeans copied the old Bobcat output for their 14 pin connections so this should be fine.  Anything you find in your manual or pictures of the connections would be appreciated.  Thanks

  • Hi - Trying to connect a 2021 Kubota SVL-65 14 pin male connector to a Cat dozer blade attachment 8 pin female connector . Thought the SG-BC14-CT8 was the right adapter but in looking closer at photos not certain. Can I verify by sending you photos? Thanks.

    Unless you are going to operate it back and forth between a Cat 8 pin machine and your Kubota, I would just change the harness out and forget about the 8 pin.
