SURCHARGES:
Over the past several months we have seen a steady increase in pricing from our suppliers due to the current volatile economic landscape. While we have worked hard to absorb as many of these expenses as possible, we have reached a point where we must pass a portion of these increases on to the marketplace. As you will note from our revised pricing, we have done so in the form of a surcharge to reflect in full transparency the impact of these recent increases on our products. We will continue to closely monitor our input costs as well as work with our suppliers to offer the most competitive pricing we can going forward.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Product overview
Skid Steer Genius 14-pin to 14-pin Electrical Adapter for Skid Steers
Description
Some machine manufacturers try to make you think you can only buy their attachments by changing the wiring. In reality, most of them use the same attachment suppliers and simply install a different harness. In most cases, adapting is just a matter of matching similar connectors and re-pinning them to line up. The main exception is Bobcat, which in 2000 introduced CAN controllers that required attachments to include a computer. By 2010, Decoders were developed to translate those data signals back into standard 12-volt controls.
To keep things simple, adapters follow a clear naming system. For example:
BC14-CT14
- BC14 = Bobcat 14-pin machine side (plugs into the skid steer)
- CT14 = CAT D series 14-pin attachment side
Bobcat introduced the 14-pin format, and many other brands use it as well—Case, Gehl, Kubota, JCB/Volvo, Mustang, Takeuchi, New Holland, Manitou, Yanmar, Develon, Hyundai, and Wacker Neuson.
One thing to watch for: not all machines are built with every control button. Even with the right adapter, you may not have enough controls available to run certain attachments. For example, older Cat and Kubota machines only included 2 controls. Some models come with 4 but won’t offer 6 unless you order a high-flow version or request the extra controls. This usually only becomes obvious when trying to use the 5th or 6th function.
