CAN Pro Controller for Running Bobcat CAN Attachments on Non-Bobcat Machines: The CAN Pro is a patent-pending controller built to let operators run compatible Bobcat CAN attachments on many 14-pin skid steer and compact track loader platforms. It converts your machine’s 12-volt output signals into the CAN communication language required by Bobcat attachments, allowing them to function as if they were connected to a Bobcat machine.
Designed for Mixed Fleets and Attachment Flexibility: This controller is ideal for contractors, dealers, rental fleets, and owner-operators who want to move Bobcat attachments between different machine brands without buying duplicate attachments or hardwiring custom solutions.
Fast Plug-and-Play Installation: Installation takes about one minute. Plug the controller into your machine’s 14-pin connector, connect it to the attachment, and begin operating with your existing machine controls. An integrated LED indicator helps confirm power and signal activity during use.
How It Works: The CAN Pro reads the 12-volt outputs from the machine and instantly translates them through an onboard microprocessor and driver circuit into Bobcat CAN commands. This makes it an active electronic controller, not just a basic wiring adapter.
Built for Real Equipment Use: The controller is designed for repeated field use and offers a reusable plug-mount format that can be moved between machines and attachments as needed.
Important Hydraulic Note: Bobcat hydraulic couplers are reversed compared to many other manufacturers. Before using the CAN Pro, the hydraulic couplers must be reversed or adapted so the attachment can function properly.

What Is Included:
Power Requirement Note: Some John Deere machines built prior to 2020 may require a power pin upgrade kit in the 14-pin connector for proper operation.
Attachment Compatibility:
Not Compatible:
Compatible Attachment Examples:
Machine Compatibility Overview:
CAT Next Gen and Develon: Compatible with CAT 255, 265, 275, and 285 Next Gen machines and Develon models. AUX 8 is used for power, and AUX 7 acts as a shift key to provide up to 8 functions from 4 buttons.
John Deere: Compatible with 2020 and newer machines equipped with a Pin K power pin. P Series machines can provide up to 8 functions directly from the sticks. G Series applications may require additional review if more than 6 functions are needed.
Case: Machine must have enough factory-installed controls for the required functions. Machines with a J switch can provide up to 8 controls using shift functionality.
Kubota: Older than 2018 machines typically provide 2 controls, while 2018 and newer machines may provide up to 7 controls. Machines with a J switch can provide up to 8 controls.
JCB, Volvo, Older Bobcat, Gehl, Mustang, Manitou, New Holland, Yanmar, ASV 14-Pin Machines, Hyundai, and Wacker Neuson: Most support up to 6 controls depending on machine configuration, with the possibility of up to 8 controls if a J switch is present.
Takeuchi: Supports up to 8 controls depending on model year and machine configuration. Newer 11R Series machines can operate 8 functions directly from the sticks.
Additional Brands: Compatibility for brands such as Kato, Kioti, Sunward, Vance, XCMG, and Zoomlion should be verified based on machine control configuration.
High Flow Note for CAT Next Gen: A hidden jumper inside the connector allows high-flow activation. Connect to K for XPS or N for XE/XHP as required.
Laser Control Note: External laser receiver solutions are still in development for some grader applications.
The CAN Pro allows non-Bobcat machines with a 14-pin connector to operate Bobcat CAN-based attachments as if they were connected to a Bobcat loader.
It converts your machine’s 12V control signals into CAN communication that Bobcat attachments require, using an onboard microprocessor.
No, it is fully plug-and-play and typically installs in about one minute with no wiring required.
It works with most 14-pin machines including Kubota, CAT, John Deere, Case, New Holland, Takeuchi, and others depending on configuration.
It works with many Bobcat CAN attachments, but some specialized equipment like chipper units or concrete mixers are not compatible.
Yes, in most cases you will need to reverse hydraulic couplers because Bobcat flow direction differs from other manufacturers.
It can support up to 8 functions depending on your machine’s available controls and configuration.
No, it is an active electronic controller with software and circuitry that translates signals between systems.
Some older machines, such as pre-2020 John Deere models, may require a power pin upgrade to function correctly.
It is ideal for operators with mixed fleets who want to run Bobcat attachments on multiple machine brands without modification.
