Hi Kevin. I just wanted to thank you for making this video and sharing your expertise. I am a novice tractor owner (TC-45D). I have a backhoe and have struggled with the attach and separate operation. I now have done it 10 or so times but I still learned a thing or two from your video. Again thanks from the Adirondacks. Regards, Greg
I have owned a New Holland TC40D and backhoe for 23 years and I can tell you straightway that you need not remove the lower lift arms. When you pull that line off the front block it disables your 3-point lift arms so you can’t accidentally lift them with the backhoe attached. Try it, you’ll like it!
