You the BOSS operating this. Looks real handy. Just agreed to buy a toyota model. I watch your guitar repair videos and never imagined I'd see you pop up on a skid steer backhoe search!
repairing guitars even looks like a very relaxing activity. The sound they make is a lot pleasing, anyway. Well done my friend you have saved yourself a bucket full of cash!
Thanks, I hear it squeaking too, but I had just greased it. In fact I grease it before every use. The ground really digs hard with a shovel because it is solid rock/gravel.
yep this brings back memories. I worked for pacific gas and electric and after the Oakland hills fire we had to make a stable area for the poles to be reinspected. Thats when i got to use a bob cat had to move and level out 30 yards or sand and 30 yards of gravel sure beat the heck out of doing it by hand. thanks for sharing
Thanks Dale. Yeah in this ground you often hit rocks 2 to 4 feet in diameter. That would stop a trencher dead. This thing just jerks them out of the way.
A lot easier than a slip scrapper we used in the late 60s. I was a large shovel with two handel's and an attachment for a chain and was pulled by a tractor.
Good day sir, do you still have the backhoe attachment? I am busy restoring a similar backhoe. I want to ask if you can let me know what the hydraulic hose sizes are to the bucket, dipper, and boom cylinders? The one I bought does not have the correct size hoses.
I might add it's very steep hills around here so steep in fact that a four-wheeler can actually flip over backwards yet you can go right down the hill with Bobcat no problem
Your ground has a very high rate of percolation. I live on clay an water will evaporate faster. Live in Southern California lots of,crazy people,hot an dry weather.
