A heads up that my new Grand L3560 with the BH77 backhoe was shipped without the backhoe seat. So I had to wait two weeks while the tractor sat at the Dealership and the seat was ordered and came in. I don't know if the Dealer forgot to order the seat when they ordered based on my Kubota website build sheet or if Kubota forgot to ship it.

So be sure the Dealer orders the backhoe seat if this applies to your new tractor order.

Man, I sure do hate flipping the seat back and forth on my B2650, but I'm 6'6" tall and just can't imagine fitting back there with a 2nd seat. Sure would be nice, though... There wasn't one to test-sit at the dealer so I'm left with assumptions, of course. Afraid to find out at this point.

I've read posts about the backhoe seating being tight and the control levers too short. I'm thin and 6 ft. and I'm fine with the arrangement. I guess at 6'-6" your legs would stick further out the side!

if control sticks feel too short, get a set for the B2650 ROPS model (need sticks that are used with flip seat, not fixed seat). The BH control sticks are approx 14" long and have a bend to them placing the knobs closer to the operator.

I’m 6’4 and the set up on my L4760/BH92 is super tight. Remedy for me was to order a “pleather”-covered barber booster cushion. Sits me up higher, even with back of fold up seat, providing maneuverability room with the car Brenk levers.

I have my seat at the highest setting (6’6”-260). It’s tight, but honestly I like it. I would rather have a tight operator station, and a good angle of departure. I can get thorough some rough ground on my set up without the hoe hanging up. If it were any further back, I would be very limited.
