Used Backhoe

Posts Tagged ‘around’

My boss has a small pond (1/2 acre) that has cattails growing around edge.At first they made good cover and kept the sides from eroding but now they are out of control.They are so thick you can’t even get near the water and enjoy the pond.There are fish in the pond.Are there any pesticides that are safe to use.We have dug them out with a backhoe and they come right back.Also I have heard if you place a bale of Barley Hay in the water source of a pond there will not be any moss on top of water.

I can rent a small/medium sized excavator. not a mini, but not a huge one….
will use it mostly to dig out stumps and move some boulders, but do you know if its capable ot pushing over pines and birches up to 6 to 8 inches in diameter? Id love to just level clear an acre or so…..

Thoughts?
sorry, typos. *Do you think it’s capable OF

I was the grandchild of an excavation company, and was spoilded with the use of a 580K Case backhoe for most of my life, now that is gone. I am looking for a new tractor backhoe/loader with some power for around 10k or 200ish a month. Perfection would be a mini excavator and a skidsteer, but I am in the real world now. All I can seem to find is what I like to call “big lawnmowers” is there any company that offers a big framed tractor at a low price?

We are needing to repair this backhoe. We really got a good deal on it and can afford to put some money into it. But we can’t locate Grizzly Corporation anywhere. Did possibly another company take it over? If so, Who?

Test drove a used backhoe about 200 yds and noticed smoke coming from around the floor mounted gear shift. Also had burnt smell. I immediately parked the unit. Everything else seemed to run fine. It’s got a great price. But, I’d like to know more about what I would be getting involved in.
When driving in first gear and pushing in the clutch, I was unable to shift to 2nd or higher. The gear would just grind. I had to stop, put in neutral and then put in 2nd.
