BROKEN DEERE 4200 & 420 loader

   / BROKEN DEERE 4200 & 420 loader #11  
ME thinks the dealer is full of beans. And I'm being polite. I have a 4700 and I have not broken my 48. I have pulled out at least 200 stumps, mainly little bitty things 3-12 inches but I have also taken out a few monster 36+ inch oak and pine stumps. I would have to guess that on the backhoe itself I have put in a good 100+ hours out of 215 or so. I don't see how a properly engineered and BUILT backhoe can break itself by using the controls.

The only thing I have broken on the 48 was the bolt that holds the pin which in turn mates the dipper and boom together. I broke the bolt by moving the boom back and forth trying to wiggle a stump from the ground. I thought the stump was ready to come out and was wrong. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

You might try to contact the JD area field representative and see what he says. I'm not sure that is his proper title.

Good Luck....
