I have found that if I put the front bucket down flat and get the front end up on top, maybe even tip it forward if pulling myself out, or roll it back a bit if I have to push myself and while pushing/pulling with the boom, move side to side a bit and basically "wiggle" it. Can make a huge difference
Thirty years of working in swamps, I have a lot of experience in getting stuck. It took him 5 minutes to do what should have taken 1. He had the right ideas, he just couldn't put them together. I have a JD 510, no front wheel drive. From the start I would have pushed down with the front bucket, that would stabilize the front. Push down with the hoe and shove the back end over. Lower the stabilizers to the ground to stop from sliding back into the hole. Reach out and anchor the bucket in the ground. Raise the front bucket and stabilizers. Put the machine in low gear and start pulling, when it stops moving shove the stabilizers down to stop from rolling back into the hole. Put the shuttle shift back in neutral and reach out and anchor the hoe bucket again. Raise the stabilizers, put it back into reverse and finish pulling yourself out. One minute, two at most.
Yup exactly. I have 4wd and sometimes I don't even use it cuz the front wheels will dig themselves deeper spinning while you are pulling yourself out with the tail and running it in gear.
Loved how on Facebook people were running their mouth about you not knowing what you were doing when you posted that pic in the operators page! Gotta love a backhoe!
Thank you very much. Your Video helped me get out. I was about to call rescue truck until I saw your video. I learned that I need to use both the front Bucket and the backhoe to push and get out. Thanks to you and Bill Gate that brought us the internet.
That makes me feel better. You actually know what you're doing and it still took some effort. I got my Case580SE stuck like this once and it took me about 6 hours. But then I don't have 4x4, that's like cheating. lol.
Reminds me of the Octopus ride at the fair!!! Thought running front and back at once was impressive, but then you had to show off and add a third degree with the stabilizers.... Impressive!
Did that once in deep snow a few years ago, I got one of my co-workers to man the loader and gear shift while I ran the backhoe pulling it on to solid ground. There was a lot of laughter.
Not too bad getting it out. Growing up running backhoe's in wet area, lower your front bucket all the way down and then dump the bucket like 10-15 degrees, that will act like a mud mat and help keep the from out of the mud while your pulling yourself through.
Should have used your back arms to keep you from rolling forward. Got smaller bites with you bucket and boom cause the closer that boom and bucket is to you the more strength and hydraulic pressure to pull yourself. Pull your arms up when you went to pull or push and down when you needed to adjust your front bucket so it wouldn’t roll back into the hole and would be some what more level. You did good though man you got it out!!
I've done the same thing before but it was only the front end stuck so deep the axle was buried in the mud. Where I got stuck was like quicksand at the time you could walk on it and it was solid but if you stopped and stood there you would start sinking. At the time we did not know that it was like that. To this date there are two stacks of wood about 6 ft tall buried in that location.
Michael Mac Tavish you & your FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT MADE WITH POP CAN & PLASTIC BOTTLE KIBUTTA, YOUR EVERY WERE TALKING SHIT GO BACK TO YOUR BASEMENT LITTLE BOY Kubota's sell cheap b/c you get what you pay for
It has the two little stabilizing feet, the bucket and the back loader. It makes me wonder, is it possible to make the backhoe walk on them like a spider or something?
I kind of like the joysticks better. It was a pleasure operating a CAT with joysticks for a couple of days. But I have a small backhoe loader with a similar stick arrangement like in this video so I am able to see what I like best.
Got to try my hand on my friends sisters tractor mount backhoe digging a test hole make sure it worked still and then with 10 min of self tought experience she wanted lessons on her backhoe since she never used it. Little tricky tryin to move smoothly and in sink. You got it out thats what matters. I got my tractor stuck in the woods it took 2 1/2 hrs with a 4 ton come along to get unstuck but we all screw up you shouldn't have there well and i shouldn't have been where i was either just yours came out easier using the hoe vs a come along
Well it came out so it's all good. I know from what I've got stuck in here, like unexpected frost boils that break through and open up a swamp suddenly. There is no exact science to pulling a backhoe loader out on it's own, It either works or it don't L.O.L
I was digging last year and the Case nose dived into a underground spring. The backhoe was getting swallowed... with the hoe pushing down and getting sucked into the ground we were able to stabilize the machine with 20ft logs. Nothing like watching the earth swallow heavy equipment. Now there is constant water running where the backhoe was, ungodly cold water.
I did the same thing with my case. took two of us. one worked the back and the other the front. had to dig to bed rock. three feet deep for seventy feet long.
@@simonsimon557 Showing track machines 360° but not 180° . I drove one for years. How can you get stuck when you have a back hoe and a powered front bucket ? You dont need the wheels, you just walk yourself out with the hydraulics.
