just to big and fat for the backhoe seat

[bcschris]

I have kubota l3400 with kubota bh77 backhoe.
The problem is I am just to big and fat to fit into the backhoe seat.
What I do now is just turn around and operate the backhoe form the main tractor seat. There must be some kind of swivel seat on a tower of some kind.
Ok....I could go on a diet but that is not going to happen.
I know that I am not the only person who can't fit in that tiny Japanese person backhoe seat.

The seat doesn’t have arm rests, right?
What do you mean by too big and fat to fit?
Is it the “seat” itself that is he problem, or the position of the seat that puts you too close to the controls to operate, and/or leaves a space too cramped to sit in?

Replace the seat?

There are a ton of seat designs out there. How about this one:

K & M Swivel Pro Seat Swivel, Model# 5006 at Northern Tool. Is in the $80 or so price range.​

Find a seat that will suit you install it and you wil
be fine.

Many years ago I was stationed at Service School
Command Great Lakes Ill. I walked into an old soda
shop that be came a bar and the old stools were still
in place and this guy was sitting on two of them a cheek
on each one with a foot of overhang on each side. I
had a little trouble believing what I was seeing!

I've seen that. A fellow I knew & wife both over 500# we'd see in a restaurant each two chairs, one for each cheek. His wife broke the wall-mount commode off of the wall!
