GENERAL INFORMATION
„ Some illustrations in this manual show the
equipment with safety shields removed to provide
a better view. This equipment should never be
operated with any necessary safety shielding
removed.
The purpose of this manual is to assist in setting up,
operating and maintaining your backhoe. Read it care-
fully. It furnishes information and instructions that will
help you achieve years of dependable performance.
Figure 1. Backhoe Directions
These instructions have been compiled from extensive
field experience and engineering data. Some informa-
tion may be general in nature due to unknown and
varying conditions. However, through experience and
these instructions, you should be able to develop pro-
cedures suitable to your particular situation.
Throughout this manual, references are made to right,
left, forward and rearward directions. These are deter-
mined from the backhoe operator seat position facing
rearward as shown in Figure 1.
Terms for backhoe components have some variations
throughout the industry. We use SAE designations as
shown in Figure 2.
The illustrations and data used in this manual were cur-
rent at the time of printing, but due to possible in-line
production changes, your machine may vary slightly in
detail. We reserve the right to redesign and change the

grene, serious injury, or death will result. CON-
TACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID
ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.
Safety is a primary concern in the design and
manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our
efforts to provide safe equipment can be wiped
out by an operator’s single careless act.
„ Never allow children or untrained persons to
operate equipment.
In addition to the design and configuration of
equipment, hazard control and accident preven-
tion are dependent upon the awareness, con-
PREPARATION
cern, judgement, and proper training of
personnel involved in the operation, transport,
maintenance, and storage of equipment.
„ Check that all hardware is properly installed.
Always tighten to torque chart specifications
unless instructed otherwise in this manual.
It has been said, “The best safety device is an
informed, careful operator.” We ask you to be
that kind of operator.
„ Air in hydraulic systems can cause erratic oper-
ation and allows loads or equipment components
to drop unexpectedly. When connecting equipment
or hoses or performing any hydraulic maintenance,
purge any air in hydraulic system by operating all
hydraulic functions several times. Do this before
putting into service or allowing anyone to
approach the equipment.
INSTALLATION
„ Hydraulics must be connected as instructed in
this manual. Do not substitute parts, modify, or
connect in any other way.
„ After connecting hoses, check that all control
lever positions function as instructed in the Opera-
tor's Manual. Do not put into service until control
lever and equipment movements are correct.
„ After connecting hoses, check that all control
lever positions function as instructed in the Opera-
tor's Manual. Do not put into service until control
lever and equipment movements are correct.
TRAINING
„ Protective hose sleeves must cover all hydrau-
lic hoses within 20 inches of the operator and be
secured onto metal hose fittings. Replace hoses or
sleeves if damaged or if protective sleeve cannot
be properly positioned or secured.
„ Safety instructions are important! Read all
attachment and power unit manuals; follow all
safety rules and safety decal information. (Replace-
ment manuals and safety decals are available from
your dealer. To locate your nearest dealer, check
the United States and Canada call 1-800-319-6637.)
Failure to follow instructions or safety rules can
result in serious injury or death.
„ Make sure all hydraulic hoses, fittings, and
valves are in good condition and not leaking before
starting power unit or using equipment. Check and
route hoses carefully to prevent damage. Hoses
must not be twisted, bent sharply, kinked, frayed,
pinched, or come into contact with any moving
parts. Operate moveable components through full
operational range to check clearances. Replace
any damaged hoses immediately.
„ If you do not understand any part of this manual
and need assistance, see your dealer.
„ Know your controls and how to stop engine and
attachment quickly in an emergency.
„ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
„
Operators must be instructed in and be capable
of the safe operation of the equipment, its attach-
ments, and all controls. Do not allow anyone to
operate this equipment without proper instructions.
„ Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other
body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate
skin and will cause serious injury or death.
„ Make sure attachment is properly secured,
adjusted, and in good operating condition.
„ Power unit must be equipped with ROPS or
ROPS cab and seat belt. Keep seat belt securely
fastened. Falling off power unit can result in death
from being run over or crushed. Keep foldable
ROPS system in “locked up” position at all times.
„ Make sure that all operating and service person-
nel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it
must be surgically removed as soon as possible by

Mechanical failures such as a hose rupture will cause a
load to drop. Lifting a heavy load with the dipperstick,
then operating the boom, could cause boom to drop. In
either case, if anyone is in the operating area (maxi-
mum reach of bucket) as shown in Figure 1, serious
injury or death could occur.
Set tractor RPM to a speed that moves the backhoe at
a rate that you are comfortable with.
Before operating, perform a functional test by placing
control handles in their various positions and making
certain correct operation occurs, matching decals on
operator's console. Pay specific attention to float posi-
tion of boom. Do not operate backhoe if functions differ
from decal; serious injury or death could occur.
Do not dig with backhoe unless stabilizers are down
and on a firm surface. Stay clear of steep areas or
excavation banks that are soft or could give way.
It is not difficult to become a successful operator. Con-
trol lever operating decals (shown in Figure 2) are next
to the operating control levers. Study these decals;
they will assist you in becoming familiar with the con-
trols.
POSITION THE MACHINE
Before operating in an unfamiliar area, walk around the
full length of the proposed site and check for hidden
holes, drop-off or obstacles that could cause an acci-
dent.
Pushing handle 1 forward will lower left stabilizer; pull-
ing back raises it.
Pushing handle 2 forward will lower right stabilizer;
pulling back raises it.
Lower stabilizers until they carry the weight of the back-
hoe. If tractor is equipped with a front loader, place the
bucket flat on the ground. Lower loader lift arms until
weight is removed from front tractor tires.
Pulling left control back (toward A) raises boom; push-
ing it forward (toward C) lowers it. Full forward (toward
C) is the float position.
Level the machine using stabilizers and front loader
before starting to dig.
Moving left handle left (toward B) swings boom left;
moving it right (toward D) swings boom right.
Stability is very important when operating backhoe in
the extreme swing positions as this causes weight
transfer.
Pulling right control back (toward E) moves dipperstick
down and toward operator; pushing it forward (toward
G) moves it up and away from operator.
Moving right handle left (toward F) curls bucket toward
operator; moving it right (toward H) extends bucket out
away from operator.
CONTROL HANDLE OPERATION
Refer to Figure 2.
Operate the control levers, swinging the boom several
times to practice control. Do not operate the swing
more than 45 degrees each way the first few times.
Gradually increase arc.
Assume your position in the operator's seat.
When becoming familiar with backhoe controls, start
with a lower rpm.

After becoming familiar with the backhoe operation,
practice coordinated use of the controls in a safe open
area at reduced engine speed. Gradually increase
engine speed as the technique is mastered.
Only use dipperstick and bucket during the digging
cycle. As the dipperstick moves the bucket through the
soil, curl bucket to maintain proper bucket position.
At the end of the pass, or when bucket is full, curl
bucket completely, lift bucket from excavation and
swing boom to dump site.
Operate backhoe gently and smoothly. Avoid swinging
boom into mainframe. Sudden stopping or jerking
could result in serious damage to tractor and backhoe.
To obtain a cleaner trench and avoid material buildup
directly in front of backhoe, extend dipperstick and curl
bucket completely while starting to lift it out of the exca-
vation. This will allow excess material to fall back into
the excavation.
Strive to develop a smooth digging cycle. Avoid abrupt
or jerky movements. This is accomplished by operating
two or more controls at the same time and not allowing
the cylinders to reach the limit of travel.
Should you become confused during operation, simply
let go of the controls. The valve control handles will
automatically return to neutral.
START EXCAVATION
Figure 4. Fill Bucket
„ Consult local utilities before working. Know
location of all underground cables, pipelines, over-
head wires, and other hazards in working area and
avoid contact.
DUMP AND RETURN CYCLE
Keep the swing-dump-return cycle as brief as possible.
Keep dipperstick moving outward and start boom swing
as soon as the bucket clears the excavation. Continue
extending dipperstick and, as you approach the spoil
pile, start to dump bucket.
To start the excavation, position backhoe as shown for
maximum breakout force.
Actuate the dipperstick cylinder to start digging.
Approximately halfway through digging cycle, start
bucket curl while continuing to crowd dipperstick in.
Should bucket stall, raise boom slightly.
When bucket is empty, dipperstick and bucket are in
position to resume digging upon return to the excava-
tion.
Do not use down pressure on the boom when starting
to dig, as this will lift the machine and move it out of
alignment with the work.
TRENCHING AND EXCAVATING
Refer to Figure 5.
Trenching is the most basic backhoe digging operation.
Other operations are variations of this basic function.
To maintain a level trench bottom, set bucket at proper
approach angle and while crowding dipper-stick in,
continually move bucket curl lever to maintain correct
cutting angle. At the same time, place boom control in
the full forward (float) position and keep the bucket in
the same plane.
When handle is placed in the float position, pressure
on both sides of boom cylinder is released.
Figure 3. Starting Position
Digging near center of swing so material may be
dumped on either side will produce good results. Never
dig near stabilizers.
FILL BUCKET
Control bucket attitude throughout digging cycle to
keep teeth parallel to bottom of excavation. This will
provide best penetration angle and minimize dragging
and scraping bucket through the ground.
Continue the trench by moving machine along trench
centerline away from existing excavation. Move

THUMB OPERATION
The mechanical thumb is used for grabbing objects
and securing them between the thumb and the bucket.
Become familiar with the geometry and extra weight
the thumb adds to the backhoe before operating. Large
heavy objects such as rocks and logs can increase
momentum when pivoting backhoe to the side. DO
NOT make sudden stops and starts. Be extremely
careful lifting and moving long items such as poles or
tree limbs which may extend beyond the normal back-
hoe operating area.
Figure 5. Trenching
SIDE SLOPE TRENCHING OR
EXCAVATING
Improper usage can also damage the thumb or back-
hoe.
● Do not use the thumb to rake material.
● Do not use the thumb to push or pull material.
● Do not use the side of the thumb to move material.
● Do not use as a lifting device with chain or rope.
● Do not use as a pry bar to dislodge objects.
„ Be careful when swinging loaded bucket on hill-
side. Always dump spoil on uphill side of backhoe
to minimize rollover possibility.
When operating on a side slope, the backhoe must be
positioned using one of these two methods as shown in
Figure 6 or Figure 7.
The thumb has six operating positions. Place lower
channel in the hole furthest from the dipper pivot pin
and secure with clevis pin (9). Select one of the six
operating positions and secure with hitch pin (7).
Rotate the bucket to hold material against the thumb.
When operating on a side slope, always place the
trench spoil on the uphill side.
When normal backhoe operation is required, place
thumb in storage position. Remove pin clevis pin (9)
from end of thumb, place lower channel in hole closest
to the dipper pivot pin and secure with clevis pin.
Rotate thumb up against dipper, and insert hitch pin to
lock thumb into storage position. See . Thumb in Stor-
age Position, page 16.

tion in this manual.
„ Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other
body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate
skin and will cause serious injury or death.
„ Make sure that all operating and service person-
nel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it
must be surgically removed as soon as possible by

„ Before working on backhoe, extend boom and
dipperstick and place bucket on ground. Make sure
that all system pressure has been relieved by oper-
ating controls before maintenance, service, or dis-
connecting any hydraulic lines.
HYDRAULIC HOSES AND FITTINGS
NOTICE
■
Fittings with O-rings and flange do not require
additional sealant; replace damaged O-rings.
CAUTION
Hydraulic hoses are severely worked on a backhoe.
Examine them daily and replace if necessary. Hose
routing is very important. Make certain hoses can move
freely, without kinking, and cannot be damaged or cut
by backhoe action.
„ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
When tightening hoses and fittings, always use two
wrenches: one to hold hose and one to tighten fitting.
This will prevent hose from twisting and kinking.
RELIEF VALVE
This valve is pre-set at the factory to prevent system
pressure from exceeding 2000 psi. Do not attempt to
reset the valve for open-center hydraulic systems. If
valve is malfunctioning, replace it with an authorized
factory replacement part or have service done by a
qualified dealer.
Always back locknut off and screw fitting all the way in
for fittings that use O-rings for sealing. Then hold in
position and tighten locknut.
Owner Service 19

It is recommended that all fittings be lubricated daily or
every eight hours of operation. In very wet or dry condi-
tions, lubricate every four hours of operation.
LUBRICATION
Use an SAE multi-purpose type grease for all locations
shown unless otherwise specified. Be sure to clean fit-
ting thoroughly before using grease gun. One good
pump of most guns is sufficient.
„ Keep all persons away from operator control
area while performing adjustments, service, or
maintenance.
Do not let excess grease collect on or around parts,
particularly when operating in sandy areas.
Position backhoe for easy lubrication by placing boom
and dipperstick at 90° to each other with bucket cutting
edge vertical and teeth resting on ground. Lower stabi-
lizers to lubricate cylinders.

vice personnel. The repair described here requires
special skills and tools. If your shop is not properly
equipped or your mechanics are not properly trained in
this type of repair, it may be more time and cost effec-
tive to replace complete assemblies.
Pressure Setting Adjustment
NOTE: Before changing the pressure setting on the
valve, determine tractor hydraulic system pressure.
Many tractors do not create 2000 psi. If your tractor
does not create 2000 psi, changing the relief valve set-
ting will not improve the backhoe performance.
„ Keep hands and body away from pressurized
lines. Use paper or cardboard, not hands or other
body parts to check for leaks. Wear safety goggles.
Hydraulic fluid under pressure can easily penetrate
skin and will cause serious injury or death.
To adjust relief valve setting, place a 3000 psi pressure
gauge in the line attached to the valve inlet (IN) port.
Remove cap from top of main relief (1, Figure 17). Turn
adjusting screw clockwise to increase pressure and
counter clockwise to decrease pressure. Start tractor
and set throttle for full engine speed. Move right stabi-
lizer control lever to raise stabilizer to transport position
and hold the lever so full pressure builds. Adjust screw
to attain 2000 psi. Shut off tractor and replace cap.
„ Make sure that all operating and service person-
nel know that if hydraulic fluid penetrates skin, it
must be surgically removed as soon as possible by
a doctor familiar with this form of injury or gan-
grene, serious injury, or death will result. CON-
TACT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY IF FLUID
ENTERS SKIN OR EYES. DO NOT DELAY.
Port Relief Valves
„ Before working on backhoe, extend boom and
dipperstick and place bucket on ground. Make sure
that all system pressure has been relieved by oper-
ating controls before maintenance, service, or dis-
connecting any hydraulic lines.
Pressure settings on port relief valves are preset at the
factory. Although they are adjustable, they must not be
reset in the field using backhoe hydraulic system. An
incorrect setting could cause hydraulic pump to fail or
backhoe cylinder rods to buckle.
Replace Port Relief Valves
CAUTION
It is not necessary to remove the entire valve assembly
from the console to replace individual port relief valves.
Be sure to install valve cartridges set at the correct
pressure. Valves are similar and can be easily mixed
up.
„ Always wear relatively tight and belted clothing
to avoid getting caught in moving parts. Wear
sturdy, rough-soled work shoes and protective
equipment for eyes, hair, hands, hearing, and head;
and respirator or filter mask where appropriate.
NOTE: Valve cartridges have small sealing washers
attached to them. When replacing valve, check cavity
in valve housing for any loose washers.
HYDRAULIC VALVE REPAIR
Refer to Figure 17.
Valve repair should be accomplished in a clean work
place. Note the configuration of the parts before disas-
sembling valve and control linkage. This will make
