Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

[California]

Bozo delivered a 300 lb plastic tank on a huge backhoe trailer. He ignored me waving my arms frantically, and drove downhill into a curving dead-end. Plenty of hp but so slippery that he couldn't back out with 2wd.

I finally got his trailer turned around and back out of there. Part of the way it required setting the backhoe's feet and using its bucket curl to drag the monster uphill on saturated ground.

Thats a Bobcat 905B backhoe with skidsteer attach ? ... Necessity can make you pretty athletic

Ouch!

No, this [post #1546] is a 3-point BH provided by a US or Canadian firm to both Yanmar-USA and to Kubota-USA dealers, to be sold by them as trademarked original equipment, about 1980. Here's a recent post where I posted more detailed pictures. (In the first pic its in storage with the tractor's bucket merely parked next to it. The BH isn't attached to the front of the tractor).

The boom, stick, swing mechanism are identical to the Bobcat 905B but mine has no PTO pump and no hydraulic outriggers.

That is good to know. Hopefully Bobcat can provide parts if I need something.

This is one reason why tractor PTO farming winches are safer, the front of my tractor comes up so far before the logging winches bottom blade hits the ground, not to mention one of the best additions to modern tractors, ROP

Jumping a little off track here But I noticed that the biography of the reporter who wrote the news report is twice as long as the news report. Nothing like self promotion on the back of someone else s tragedy. Or are they just trying to fill up the page. I can't quite see how the reader, knowing that the reporter inherited her mother's green thumb, is going to help the reader understand and appreciate the seriousness of the report of the accident.

Back to the tractors
