Looks good. I do it a little differently. Plywood on a concrete slab. With the hydraulics still connected I pull forward a bit, then lower the whole thing flat on the plywood. No jack stands. When it's time to reconnect I do the reverse: Hook up hydraulics, use the stabilizers (and boom if necessary) to lift into position. Drive under, lower and pin. Bob's your uncle.

Yeah I do it a bit differently each time. Evolutionary stuff I guess.

I know that is the way Kubota describes the procedure and I was wondering if anyone has seen this being done in a demo anywhere, like on Youtube?

Yes, there are lots of them. Just google “BX25 Backhoe Removal”.

I put mine on my bxpanded.com backhoe dolly (which has wheels) and tuck it away in a corner of the garage for the winter. (I have a rear blower.). One of my late Fall rituals.

I searched and didn't find any videos showing the backhoe lowered to the ground in the removal process (that's the way Kubota instructs)... also no videos showing the backhoe installation from the grounded position. I did see lots of videos by me though . Even saw one of my backhoe videos ripped off by someone.
