If you store the BH on a concrete pad, I recommend making a storage dolly for it. The dolly makes it very easy to move the BH around and move it into position when attaching it to the tractor. Several TH-cam videos posted showing great dolly designs for a BH.
That's a great idea, thank you. Currently I don't have a concrete pad but I am going to pour a concrete floor in my tractor shed this summer. I really like the backhoe dolly that I had seen on the Sweat Equity Life channel. Bringing the backhoe to the tractor on the dolly will most certainly be easier to get it aligned to install on the tractor. Have a super day!
Thanks Kenny. I have been doing a fair bit of work with the backhoe. I wish I would have bought it when I bought the tractor. Have a fantastic weekend!
Paul, you never cease to amaze me!! That was no small job, and it seemed like you handled it with ease. You might want to be grateful that I don't live closer.... otherwise, I'd be calling you every weekend for help!🤣
Thank you kindly John. Overall the job was pretty straightforward and enjoyable to do. If we lived closer it would be a pleasure to get together on weekends to help each other out. Have a fantastic weekend!
Great video, Paul! And yes - if the tractor ain't lined up perfectly, the backhoe can be a bear to attach! Sometimes the attaching goes smoothly, other times it takes a while. Thanks for sharing. - Rick
Thanks Rick. You got that right. I had a backhoe on my previous tractor and like you said, sometimes it goes smoothly, other times it takes a while. This backhoe is much easier to mount and dismount, just gotta align the tractor straight. Have a fantastic weekend!
Good afternoon Paul. Great to see the backhoe installed and operational. I am impressed with the space you have between the seat and the controls. Our backhoe is fine once I am seated, but I have to be careful getting on or off, that I don't catch my clothing on the controls. A few have mentioned a dolly. We have a gravel floor in the barn, but a piece of plywood under each wheel of the dolly lets me move the backhoe a bit for proper alignment with the tractor. Made my life so much easier. Thanks for the videos on this installation, I really enjoyed them. 👋😎👍🍻 Ben
Good evening Ben and thank you. There is plenty of room, I actually move the seat forward to get myself closer to the control levers so that I can comfortably operate the backhoe. I am going to add a second seat just for the backhoe since there is so much room and I don't like rotating the tractor seat. I most certainly will be making a dolly once I pour the cement pad in the tractor shed. I am using the backhoe daily and won't be taking it off for a quite a while. Have a great weekend!
Paul, loved the video again! Two things I’ve ordered the longer operating backhoe arms so that was sorted out for me. I didn’t know or didn’t look for the seat swivel sticker but i did the exact same thing I had the seat forward rotated the seat and ended up putting a nice scratch in the black plastic by the pto lever wasn’t happy. Also my hazard lights are on the fenders and the wiring comes up and on the outside. I don’t operate in the wood but I could see it maybe get snagged on brush. That’s just how the dealer installed my hazard lights. Enjoy easy digging !
Thank you very much. That's excellent you are getting the longer levers. Yup, rotating the seat when forward is a bit of a painful lesson. Scratches like that are hard to take. I don't mind where the lights are mounted now but I am going to rewire them so that the wire won't get caught on anything. I am enjoying digging. Have a fabulous weekend!
Good Evening Sir, Welcome Into The Marvelous World Of Backhoe Therapy 🤣👌👍 Thank You Very Kindly For Your Detail Informative Video Sir and You can Patch Your Scratch with a little patch Of Fiberglass and do Both Sides So It Will Look Like A Scoff Pad 🤣🧐👍Keep Up Your OUTSTANDING Husband and Wife Team Work Cheers 👍👍🧐🧐🍻🍻
Good evening Sir. Thank you. I had a backhoe for 6 years on my previous tractor and I put close to 400 hours on it. I regret not buying another backhoe 2 years ago when I bought the tractor I have now. I am super happy to finally add a backhoe to my Kubota LX2610. I have plenty of work to do with it, yes plenty of backhoe therapy. I have to repair my canopy so I'll most likely take care of the scratch at the same time. Thanks for your continued support. Have a fantastic week Sir!
How's she goin'? The backhoe is going to be a great add to your tractor and you did a very good job installing it! I enjoyed your description of what you went through to get the back hoe installed. Thanks and take 'er easy!!

Hey Paul. You did a great job installing the backhoe and a clear explanation of the process and changes you made. I can't wait to see it in action.
Thanks Kenny. I have been doing a fair bit of work with the backhoe. I wish I would have bought it when I bought the tractor. Have a fantastic weekend!
Good job on getting everything functioning. Let's see it in action now.
Thank you. There will be some digging with the backhoe in upcoming videos. Have a great weekend!
Well done Paul, can't wait to see it in action 👍🏻. Have a great weekend 🙋🏼♂
Thanks Luc. You will see it in action in an upcoming video. You too, have a great weekend!
