Backhoe Mount

   / Backhoe Mount #21  
Like Mike said you should secure your pins so they don't turn. Here is a pic of the same location on my backhoe. You can see the bolt in the one bushing that secures the pin. You could just drill through at one of you grease fitting locations and add a bolt. Mine also has gussets to prevent the side plates from spreading, this is a common problem on some of the cheaper backhoes.

Interesting pix, Frank.

I have never seen a backhoe that uses a shared pin for 2 of its cylinders.
One has a clevis-end and one had a cross-tube. The problem with that is
the clevis-end cyl is not greasable with a zerk fitting. Is that a Mazzotti?

I have never seen tie-rod cyls on a hoe, either, BTW.

All of the curved boom backhoes that I have seen have a shared pin for the dipper and boom cylinders. The one that I have is a LITW, here are some examples from other companies.

I had not noticed that before! Add the Woods BHX, new Kubota BTs, Kioti
KB2475, etc. They must provide for greasing. I wish I had looked closer
when I took my pix. It is possible that they use center-drilled pins with
multiple transverse grease holes.

In your pix, I see one zerk for one of the cylinder's cross-tube. That
implies they do not use center-drilled pins. How does the mfgr tell you
to keep that pivot fully lubed?

Is that a Mazzotti hoe?

The backhoe is made by LITW implements in South Korea, I have the 7601 curved boom model.
LITW Backhoes LITW Backhoes BH6601, BH7601, made in Korea to give you a high quality lower cost choice, a 3 point will fit most tractors, we also have frame kits for some tractors, JM254LE JM354LE Some TYM brand and other tractors TYM T273 & T330, Fr
When you grease the inner cylinder grease is forced out under the clevis end of the other cylinder as well as between the clevis and the cross tube. I gave it a few shots of grease just to see, it does get good coverage.

Sorry, I misread your prev post. I have never seen one of the LITW
Korean hoes, but I hear good things about them. I guessed yours was
a Mazzotti since you have Italian hoses. I have never seen that mfgr's
hoes either, but there are a bunch of them out there.

Finally got some more done on my backhoe mount
All I have left to do now is position the backhoe on the mount and drill the holes for the backhoe pins and add some braces from the backhoe to the lower mount.
I will probably still use the 3 pt top mount just because I can.

Finally got my power beyond all hooked up and did a test fit of backhoe on mount. Still need to drill holes for lower pins on backhoe and add braces from top of backhoe to mount so I can get ride of the upper link mount.

Nice job.

Good luck, interested to see how it operates.
