Features
BH270 Backhoe Performance
Hydraulics are precisely matched to the tractor, delivering stronger digging performance and smoother, more controlled operation. Its durable subframe, bucket options, mechanical thumb, and ability to keep the 3‑point hitch draft arms attached all contribute to efficient, versatile use.
Backhoe Operator Comfort
The BH160 and BH270 Backhoes are built to maximize operator comfort throughout long workdays. A stable 3‑point stance, accessible grab handles, and a large boarding step make mounting and dismounting easier, while a high‑back seat and convenient access to stabilizers and locks enhance ease of use. Non‑slip grips on the operator platform further support safe, comfortable operation.
Backhoe Buckets
Buckets are available in a variety of sizes to fit the job for greater productivity. The Backhoe can be ordered with 20.3-cm (8-in.), 30.5-cm (12-in.), and 40.6-cm (16-in.) buckets. Replaceable bucket teeth are available.
