Backhoe Backhoe weight

BuildIdaho · Apr 17, 2005

Howdy. I am adding a BH-75 backhoe with 12 inch bucket to my L 3400HST next week. Any idea how much the unit and sub-frame mounting kit weighs? I read somewhere that the bucket is around 500 lbs. Thanks...Randy

I think that a BH75 weight is about 910 lbs.

The 12" bucket will be under 100 lbs I'm certain. I can move my 16" bucket around by hand easily, and probably pick it up also. Mine is the BL4690, which is essentially the same size hoe as the BH75.

Oh... just the weight of the bucket. I know that my 12" bucket on my BX23 weights around 70 pounds. So for a BH75, a 12" bucket should be a bit more.

I'm curious though about the weight of a L48 24" bucket. It's really big. I could easily stand up in it. Should weight well over 200 pounds.
