Loading a backhoe in a railcar

   / Loading a backhoe in a railcar #2  
I've pulled some "shots" with some of our equipment, like getting myself over a trench with the hoe and bucket or using our Terex for a man lift, but I've never seen anything like that.

I guess that case is pretty strong. All it would take is a ruptured hose and he would have a headache!!!

My partner wanted to use the kicker on our 335 J.D. Baler for a "diving board" at a party at his home last year as the board on the swimming pool cracked. I replied that you better have a lot of beers before sitting on the ejector. The sudden acceleration would probably compress your spine and after you hit the water, you'd drown because you'd not be able to move. That is if the trajectory was right and you didn't overshoot and land on the concrete. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Just think of the ride a broken hose would give ya. But I can say one thing the operator has some real issues./forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

I don't know about issues but I do suspect the giggle factor was turned a little tighter than in most folks.

I have to admit if I was an operator I'd consider such an excerise more about honing skills and grins. If given the opportunity...................I'd probably imitate an operator. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
