How to attach backhoe

[Streetmedik]

Tractor is a L3300.
Backhoe is B4690.

I inherited them with the business. No documentation...

I need to know how to correctly attach the backhoe to the tractor so I can learn to use it.

I may be missing parts.... If I am, I need to know.

It should have the 3pt hook up and a p.t.o. driven pump. A joystick controller. Seat. Outriggers . And if course the hoe.

Yes, it has all that...but, I still need to know what hooks where so I don't kill myself or one of the kids that work for me.

Get pictures of the backhoe and back of the tractor.there should be 2 pins on the backhoe and a spot for the toplink.

Very carefully. We had one and it is a pain. You have to connect the PTO first and use the outriggers and boom to connect. Disconnecting is about the same way.

Dotcop has pretty much summed it up.

Dont know who's photo i stole, but i think this is the one.its from here, but image is poor.
Depending how its sitting now,pump needs to be connected,starting with outriggers and getting three point arms connected the pinholes below footrests.
Three point arms go over the round tube crosspiece. Then by manipulating three point and hoe itself you can get top link connected. It hooks on one pin,and second pin retains it.
Its fiddly,have a couple aligning bars handy and dont use fingers to check for pin alignment.

Kubotabooks.com has a manual for it.

**check bolts on top link bracket, they like to break!**
I replaced them with wheel studs threaded right to bottom then nuts to hold brackets on. Never broke a bolt since.

You also need the top link reinforcing plate on the tractor or you will break the top and rear of the tractor right off of it.

I will get photos of the mess I have.

Ok here are some photos of the mess I inherited. The tractor came with the business. It was not taken care of. I am trying to get everything right.

Another photo.... I can't seem to attach more than one at a time.

How and where does this attach?

 

[Tooljunkie]

Hard to tell if plate is there,that big flat orange one on tractor is the backhoe upper link. The top link plate rienforcement bracket mounts behind it, and faces forward below seat if i recall. Ties everything together.

Stuff looks kind of rough. Glad to see you want to bring it back up to snuff.

Previous business owner didn't take care of anything... Getting the tractor doing what is should do will help tremendously...


Now if I can find a forum for the kilns I use to melt glass.......



I will take a closer look for that reinforcing bracket Monday. I will also do some serious cleaning of the tractor.

Your tractor already has the reinforcing bracket installed on it.

So all you need to do is get new pins and hook it up.

Awesome..... What hooks to what, in what order? Or is it something that will be really obvious once I get the crap and dirt removed?
