I believe you can still fit a thumb to the fixed part of the dipper would just mean could only use it when it's not extended- RSL make a special one for backhoes like this.

Yeah I know- would be the ideal machine for first foray into backhoe ownership but thinking if Doobin can't make it work for him perhaps I won't either in reality- although I wish he was closer as I'd like to have a go on it and get the feel for it. Also he's selling it in the wrong side of summer for me when backhoe would probably get it's most use- can see that being sat about alot in the coming winter...Nothing stopping you snapping it up then

@doobin Servo set up appears exactly the same as the 590st and I got on fine with that. It’s got the Ford straight arm loader which some prefer and some hate. Lot of machine.

Three of you will just about fit in the spare double bed, so I can put you all up for the night

Chap on the backhoe group has an lb110 with a grapple fixed this way.
You wouldn’t be able to pick up bugger all with the extender out anyhow. Especially not to the side!🫣

Think I may need to put an offer in to save three of you sharing a bed and a very embarissing photo that goes viral and a new backhoe boys sticker and fridge magnet is produced

Maybe not pick UP but you can drag it close enough to deal with
