Backhoe 2305/ Woods BH6000 Backhoe Update

[PDe]

I have a 2210 with the woods hoe. The pressure and flow are good. Most movements are best operated one at a time, but the speed is good for the size of hoe. The controls are somewhat easy to learn and with practice you'll have it down quickly. Second time at the controls, I dug two ditches for drain pipe, each ditch was about 10' long, 30" deep, 12" wide. It took about 45 minutes to dig both. Certainly a time and lower back saver over a shovel. I have about 10 projects planned for the hoe (more with neighbors/friends requests).

I'm glad to hear that. I noticed movement seems good using 1 control at a time. What RPM do you run at? It seems to move quickly even just above idle.

Usually 2500. As needed I'll feather the controls to reduce the boom or swing speed.

What are the part number(s) to the seat swivel bracket(s)? I may install that part on my 2210. Currently I have two seats, one for the tractor and one for the hoe.
