Till have not gotten one yet Piston?I went and operated an M62 a few months ago and REALLY liked it! It had the cab option installed and it was nice to get a feel for it. I thought when operating the hoe though that it really needed the tires filled. The hoe is so powerful it pushed the machine around a lot.
Do you guys notice this or am I just too used to a full sized construction backhoe? Overall, I liked the M62 better than my full sized backhoe.
An idea I've thought a lot about, is using the tractor in reverse when stumpgrinding. Of all my attachments that is the one that bothers my neck the most.
It would take some creative retrofitting, but do you that it would be feasible to override the speed limiter on the creep function in order to allow full speed on it?
Great photos, congrats, and thank you for posting! As always, we look forward to more and more pics of the M62/59!
Hows the excavator coming?
10,000 lbs is a good working weight for M59/M62, 8,000 lbs. good for L39/45/47
