Any pic's of the backhoe sub frame for a LK30

[iwanta]

Wondering if anyone has taken pic's of the sub frame, there's no dealer close with a kioti backhoe and sub frame to look and curious as to how the sub frame is attached to the tractor and hoe, how easy it is to get on and off and any other information about the sub frame connection :thumbsup:

The hoe is very easy to remove; it is attached to the mount via a four point arrangement. To remove; lower stabilizers and boom to the ground to support the hoe. Pull-to-release handle is below seating area of the hoe; this releases the locking "dogs" from the tractor mount. Utilizing the tractors' hydraulics, raise the hoe until it disengages the bottom hooks of the mount and slowly drive ahead from hoe a couple inches(not familiar with the metric equivilant).Place support blocking under hoe and lower hoe onto said supports. Disconnect the two hydraulic lines to the hoe and drive off. The mount (sub frame) stays with the tractor and would be burdensome to remove as it's bolted in many places to tractor requiring the removal of the rear tires and a couple dozen bolts. I have no pics available, sorry

Thanks Patches, obviously the sub frame is tucked in close to the tractor's rear so as not to inter-fear with the 3 point linkage when the hoe isn't on the tractor. Still like to see some pic's if anyone can oblige

I have a case with a backhoe, sounds like the installation and removal are about the same, If you want some pics of my setup i will post:thumbsup:

Here is a picture from the manual, the subframe bolts to the side of the tractor rear housing, the long bar ties into the loader frame.

I think this is one of the best designs, easy to get hoe on and off and easy to use three point.

Is there only one of those long beams that tie into the FEL subframe?

I have seen the LK3054 and its dedicated 2376 hoe. I like the way it
attaches and it seems substantial. I hope the newer LK30 does it this
way or better.

There is a beam on either side, locking/bolting into the loader frame with ,I think, (16) 14mm bolts, and 9 bolts(8 of which are 14mm and one 12mm) to the tractor frame/engine in several places; a very substantial mount. To the best of my knowledge, the LK30 is identicle

What patches said

the hoe frame bolts to the loader and to the tractor's cases including the rear end housing

really nice set up and I really like how the Joe is high and tight to the tractor
