A very helpful tool!

[samofsweden]

This might be one of the best tools to put on your backhoe This is a Swedish invention, very popular over here in the Nordic countrys. I have this tool in action, when a experience operator handle its worth looking! Would be cool to fit my BX24...weight is 65kg, so maybe not...Price...more or less as a new BX24....aaaargggh
Anyway it rocks!

What am I looking at? Something that spins bucket in a circle? Interesting. That gray box on the right looks sort of out of place.

 

[samofsweden]

Yes a spinning bucket and same time tilting bucket. You can spinn the bucket 360 degrees endless at the same time tilt the bucket to the both sides +/- 40 degrees. Helps you create magic things and you dont need to move the machine around so much.

That's pretty wild! I can imagine all sorts of uses for something like that. My only concern would be overstressing the boom with extra sideways forces.

Very useful with a bucket attached thumb or a grapple.

It looks like it would be very useful for digging up a stump.

Given the pepples I move with way to small an excavator and little TLB, I'd break that neat toy in less than 10 minutes. I guess it is a nice idea for fine work in loose material, but does not appear stout enough for the business end of a machine.

However, I'd be happy to assist this company in testing and developing their product for "robust" use.

That looks like a very interesting attachment. i like it.

Over here for the odd jobs usually an operator would use a uses a gradall fot the odd angle and grading that is too steep for dozer or other equipment.

Come on Sam.... using a tool like that is flat out cheating

It would make so many projects so easy that the CFO wouldn't think I was actually working

Sorry but its not a toy, they make these for machine up to 32 tons. Of course are you only dealing with big rocks I dont see the point using a rototilt.
It more or less a must this equipment if you want to get a digging jobb over here. Jobs go faster, more precision, and you save fuel, dont need to move your machine all the time.

Agree...cheating a little, but I mean BUT it would really be rockn roll to fit one to a BX24
Thing is, in the cabin you have one extra like a small rotating wheel on each joystick, one is rotating the bucket, the other one is tilting the bucket, and then do all this together with the rest of controling the boom and rotating the cabin....alot of things to keep in mind when try to do a move floating 3cm under the surface, from full reach of the boom up to the machine And you can do this parallel to the machine... If you good the surface will be 100% in level. I havent tryed this but I have seen guys do this, very impressive!

Sam,
congrats on finding a VERY interesting and unusual tool
and Thank you for taking the time to reduce the file size of the pictures for posting. That makes for quick loading
That would be handy on any sized machine. KennyV

How much sideways force can it or the backhoe handle?

Very good question! For my BX24 I dont no. I feel that you need some power on sideway-moves on the BH to fully use the rototilt. I think my BX24 is to small. Im planning to buy a flat-bottom/wide/no teeth bucket with intergraded tilt function for planing out loose material. I need to fit a 3 function on my BH first.
