L4200/backhoe ????

[gvw]

Help! Just found a used L4200 w/ factory cab for sale, that looks to be in reasonable shape. However, local dealer is telling me that I cannot mount a backhoe on this unit as the factory cab interferes. Can any of you fine and most all knowing Orange owners confirm or advise me on this issue. If I cannot mount a backhoe the unit will have to find another home. Thanks in advance and Happy Turkey Day to all.

unfortunatly Kubota does not put a hoe on their cab tractors. The problem with them is the cab goes to far to the rear which in turn would put the backhoe back further and mean you could only use a smaller b-hoe. You might find that some of the after-markets might fit there smaller hoe on there.

Art thanks for the info - you just confirmed what I was afraid of - thing that really torques my shorts is that the dealer/salesman that is selling the unit is either ignoring this fact or trying to make a sale as he indicated the Orange backhoe was not problem - fortunately I was supisious and checked it out - thanks aganin and Happy turkey Day!
