I'd like to be able to operate the LB1014 throttle from the backhoe seat.
Has anyone found a way of doing this?
About all I can think of is clamping a rod to the throttle control at the dash: problem is, it would block entry (or hasty exit) from one side of the tractor and hoe.
I think a foot control might be nicer, given both hands occupied with the hoe controls. It would enable a below-floorboard coupling to the forward foot control, perhaps.
Reasons for wanting the mod:
1) the backhoe swings wildly from side-to-side at full throttle
2) there are times when I just need to stop for a while and consider the next step
Anyone agree the mod would be worthwhile?
Unfortunately, I have very limited resources for fabbing a
good mechanical linkage, but all suggestions appreciated.
