Re: Tractor Loader Backhoe


at the outriggers and go deeper. This is a true frame mounted backhoe. Just happens to disconnect from the frame. Only thing I ever had done was have a custom skid plate made for the bottom. Front Bucket holds 1 ton and self dumps on auto. Backhoe is 2 stick operated.

Re: Tractor Loader Backhoe


kubota's are nice small machines easy to transport etc., but if you are going to really excavate or move material a full size machine is in order

Re: Tractor Loader Backhoe


we have had a number of rubber tired hoes mostly case, always cabs, and extendahoe , 4x4. they are very versatile and you can drive them site to site or travel quick on big road projects to drop pipe and then go back to the original spot. never liked the cats, and then they came up with the IT. bought two in one year 436c IT with rear wheel steer,(nice but wouldnt buy again due to no independent braking) VERY manueverable though and liked to crab down the road and freak people out! both with cabs , 4x4, extendahoe, and plumbed. after years of chain binding a set of forks on the IT was a godsend. drop the bucket grab the forks and go all from the seat! really adds to productivity when going from bucket to forks all day. have to remind the guys that when the tractor moves , bucket and forks go at the SAME time. the other is a 420d IT . Man I LOVE that tractor.
