Backhoe Backhoe hydraulic hook up

[JoelD]

Sorry Island, I've been married for almost 10 years now and I don't understand the wife inuendo at all......my wife don't know a connector from a crescent wrench, much less how the heck they "hook up".

Anyway, my tractor came this way.

The LK is a little different I think than most in that the hoe and loader are essentially a single circuit, when I detach hoe I need to re-route the loader outlet straight to the valve block and cut the rear remotes completely out of the loop.

Had some good seat time today, the weather was amazing.

Well....I've been married for 17 years, and I never needed any zipties.....

I have a red ziptie on one of the backhoe male lines, and I hook that up to the top female remote. However, I had switched them around when I thought I might have had a loss of hyraulic power. There was none....I just kept picking on larger objects.....

Deputy I had the same deal with thinking I was loosing power. Took a step back and realized the rock was the size of a trash barrel and the stump was as big as the tractor.

My old tractor (Kubota B6000e) with a little hoe on it, could lift big weight, but in thinking back, in relation to the size of the hoe its self, the weight seemed more. In other words the hoe was so small that most things looked really big when compared.

Still, that machine had about the same ripping power (maybe a little more) as my Kioti as the cylinder diameter was about the same.
