Operation
Dig
Use boom/swing control and bucket/dipper control to dig hole or trench.
• Keep dipper and boom at right angles as
much as possible for maximum power.
• Keep bucket in line with dipper as much
as possible.
• Position bucket so teeth cut soil. As soil is
cut, curl bucket under dipper.
• Move dipper and bucket together.
Increasing engine speed will not increase
backhoe force.
