The "Backhoe Thread" for backhoes and work done with them.

[V8Druid]

Why did ya sell it? All those attachments look bloody good, I’ll have some ideas now, especially the forks and man basket.

the forks were very handy ... It got replaced with my duck ...
got outgunned by the job I was doing ...
the pic of that rock in the front clamshell was the start of some serious rock finds and needed a bigger weapon ...

.... and the start of an even bigger att. collection for that, including my own tiltrotator build

not the prettiest, but did/does the job and gives me 60 degs of tilt either way

'the' rock collection ...

spread out ready for loading out to a new home

JakieB just could not cope with the finds

this was a mate's basket ... been right up the top of it taking pix for them from it ...... good view - 3 lifts IIRC long way up

from the top

To compare a Huddig 1260 with a Lannen is to swear in the church

Got switched to some more usable rubber donuts 750 mm Wide, the total with of the machine is 277 Cm
Even weighing in at 13 tonn It floats better than a man walking across a soft field

I have been looking into huddigs a lot lately, we’re looking for a 1260 lift for the power lime work. Amazing machines, Even better to operate

I couldn’t give up my front shovel, even for a wheeled excavator. That’s the best part!

 

[BillybobLockwood]

There so amazing. The price is insane here in the states though. Half a million dollars.
