BX24 backhoe removal race

MessickFarmEqu · 07-07-2008, 07:55 AM

55 seconds... and this was my first try. I am sure I could shave another 10-12 seconds off. Can anyone else do better? Perhaps we should do an online video competition?

Thats pretty quick...I can't get mine off that fast...the left pin always sticks and needs a little tap to get it out....going in the same way.

That seems like the easy part. How long does it take you to attach it? I'm lucky if I can get that done in under ten minutes.

They have a video of that also. should be on the same youtube page. Pretty neat. Thanks for posting it as I have not removed mine just yet.

The big question is how fast can they attach the 3point hitch lol....thats the real time consumer...

Very swift --- I would also like to see video of attaching the 3 point hitch. I have some work to do with a box blade that I keep postponing because I just can't remember how to do it!

Impressive...takes me that long to undo hydraulics...

Very impressive, it takes me that long to find the right page in the manual. Being the newbie I am, I think I would have a problem attaching the hydraulic lines back on since the pressure wasn't relieved first.

Foul!
Ya didn't put the little protective caps on the ends of the hydraulic lines
