Okay so I wasnt there for when my new one was delivered. They dropped it off while I was at work. But here she is

Anyway, I picked up this little TC-30 4wd,Hydro, 1 remote with Hydr Top Link, Loader, 5'Khun Tiller and a 759C Backhoe (for the TC55da).... Not a bad days shopping. Hmmm... wife isnt thrilled, but hey it's her farm I need this stuff for....

I will post pictures of the backhoe in operation when I get it.. They currently have the TC55 and are fitting it with the Backhoe and the subframe.

The TC30 is for cleaning barn stalls. I got the little 3ph utility hauler a (4'x6' flatbed til, trailer with no wheels that mounts to the 3ph). My barn hand fills it, drives it out to the pile and dumps, comes back and fills it. From 5 hourse a day to aroun 3 now. More time for him to fix other farm problems....

Well the 759C Backhoe came in today.

Wow what a Hoss. This thing is big and mean. It will drag the tractor around some, but the stabilizer bars dig in after a about 6" to a foot and then it is fairly well locked in place.

I have used it for all of an hour and loved every second of it. It came delivered with a 18" and 12" Bucket. I ordered a 24 and 12. The 18" was attached so that is all I have played with so far.

I managed to rip out 20" sweetgum yesterday without much hassle. Which is saying comething since sweetgum sets a taproot about the size of the trunk. Probably about 14" Diameter.

Next time I get to the farm I will try and get some photos.

Glad you're having fun with that new blue BH they really are a blast to operate. BTW, I have a few extra big stumps here to dig if you run out of jobs at your place. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
