    Something wrong with my backhoe controls??

    I have a B26TLB and when I first started to use the backhoe it was very jerky. The key to become smooth is experience. What I found is to always start another movement before stopping the previous one especially when you swing the backhoe.

    Move piles of stuff after using FEL or bucket?

    Yes, we can import 15 years olds car and drive them on the road only if they are left hand drive. If they are right hand drive like mine you have to wait 25 years and they become antics. Quite stupid law if you ask me.
