• Engine and starting issues: Problems with starting can occur, especially in cold weather, due to issues with the fuel delivery system, faulty glow plugs, or a weak battery. The 
  S185

   has also been reported to have issues with losing power or emitting blue smoke when under heavy load, which can point to worn piston rings or a problem with the turbocharger.

• Overheating issues: When the machine gets hot, it may fail to restart. This could be caused by heat-related faults with the ignition coil, damaged wiring harnesses, or problems with the cooling system.
• Hydraulic problems: Both models can experience hydraulic issues, such as slow lift arms, leaking seals, and damaged hoses, especially after heavy use. Regular checks of hydraulic fluid levels and inspecting hoses and seals can help prevent these issues.
• Electrical problems: Issues like a parasitic battery drain, flickering lights, or faulty sensors can occur. These can be caused by damaged wiring, faulty relays, or a malfunctioning alternator.
• Worn components: As with any heavy machinery, normal wear and tear can lead to issues with components like the axle bearings (though these are designed to be self-lubricating), safety features, and the Bob-Tach mounting system.

• Used skid-steer loaders: Websites like eBay and Surplus Record list used
